I found the easiest way to introduce macros is just to introduce them

Hi Alan,
this is one of the places where clojure.core is not written in what I

This. And to clarify, in case it's unclear: every function in Clojure
must return a value - there are no void functions as in Java. print
and println, therefore, in addition to printing their data, must
return something (they choose nil), and the REPL always prints out the
