- jacquesm 17y agoAnd especially since that is the original article title and describes it much better. Clojure is one of the more interesting developments in language land in the last couple of years, this might just be what will bring lisp to the mainstream.
- swannodette 17y agoI couldn't agree with this more. The point isn't so much that what it brings to the table is new - but that it packages all these features in such an accessible way: * lockless concurrency * syntactical support for data structures a la Python/Ruby * macros * polymorphism and inheritance * functional programming All this and the core language is defined in only 4500 or so lines of Clojure. The Clojure-in-Clojure project is really something to look forward to.
