I didn't find that article particularly helpful, especially since I was facing the exact same decision just a year ago.
For me, the difficulty of the language was the ultimate criteria I made me go with Clojure. Relative to Scala, Clojure is quite a bit easier to pickup. It has less syntax rules. I think most people wouldn't disagree with this. So the question was, does Scala's static typing with its more rigid syntax buy me something worthwhile? Do I see my productivity greatly improving as a result of Scala's static typing? For me the answer was no. So in the end, I decided the effort needed to understand Scala fully would not be worthwhile. -Patrick --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
