Programming Clojure, 2nd Edition

Wrapping Up

You have just gotten the whirlwind tour of Clojure. You have seen Clojure’s expressive syntax, learned about Clojure’s approach to Lisp, and seen how easy it is to call Java code from Clojure.

You have Clojure running in your own environment, and you have written short programs at the REPL to demonstrate functional programming and the reference model for dealing with state. Now it is time to explore the entire language.
