So, for various reasons, I have decided to take a look at Clojure. It is a programming language that implements LISP yet runs on top of the JVM (Java Virtual Machine). For those with long and geeky memories, LISP is one of the programming languages that ESR recommends every programmer learn.It is a requirement that when learning a new programming language the programmer is obligated to write as their first program the iconic hello world program. While normally a breaker of rules, this one makes sense. Further, I recall writing about Learning Projects and this seemed to be a good time to put my own words into action. Naturally, I will start with hello world.Caveat: I'm still very much at the early stages of figuring this out, so everything after this caveat may be less than 100% correct. I'll come back later and correct mistakes as I find them.Read on simonpeter.org ↗
