Clojure is a dynamic programming language that targets the Java Virtual
|
|
Machine. It is designed to be a general-purpose language, combining the
|
|
approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with
|
|
an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming.
|
|
Clojure is a compiled language - it compiles directly to JVM bytecode,
|
|
yet remains completely dynamic. Every feature supported by Clojure is
|
|
supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks,
|
|
with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java
|
|
can avoid reflection.
|
|
|
|
Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data
|
|
philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a
|
|
functional programming language, and features a rich set of immutable,
|
|
persistent data structures. When mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a
|
|
software transactional memory system that ensures clean, correct,
|
|
multithreaded designs.
