Developer Scratch Pad
What do I need to learn clojure?

I understand the concept of macros. Once I can program with macros, I will feel that I know how to program in lisp. I also need to have a sample program to show for it, so I am going to use the exercise that the DC Clojure chapter is going to have, which is creating a parser for a string format.

These are the things that I need:

  • Understand the basic data types, which clojure does have
  • Identify the most popular commands

I have playing with www.4clojure.com and it has been this great way to real the data types, but the steps are too small. I am going to read the first part of Clojure in Action.
