(+ 3 3) is really how arithmetic is performed in Clojure? Okay, I'm done with learning Clojure.


It may look like a weird way to type things, but it has hidden advantages when you try to do more complex things, like treating data as a program... or programs as data.

It's a small price to pay, really, for the power to make some really complex things a lot easier, even if it's a bit weird at first.

After a while, it won't even seem weird any more.


Thanks - I don't think they had the tutorial when last I saw it.
