Clojure


Macros vs Monads

Clojure: data, functions, sequences
  http://chariotsolutions.com/screencast/phillyete-screencast-6-alex-miller-clojure-enemy-of-the-state/
  """ On one hand, Clojure provides a small core set of immutable, persistent data
  """ structures. On the other, Clojure uses functional programming to provide a rich
  """ set of data manipulation functions. These two pillars of Clojure are fused
  """ together through the “sequence” abstraction. Because of sequences, Clojure
  """ developers expect that almost any function works with almost any composite
  """ data.
