Hi Massimiliano,
Thanks for that image, Manuel Paccagnella. I'd never seen it.
However, the top image leaves out most of the parentheses, and they're part
of the beauty, for me--along with the indentation.
(I had a little bit of trouble Googling up a stable URL for the image, but
finally found this, for anyone

Some months ago I decided to learn a new language. In the end, I had to
choose between Scala and Clojure and I chose Scala because Clojure was too
alien to me.
I was looking for a language to write web apps and Scala, with Play 2,
seemed like a natural choice to me. The fact that Clojure had
Welcome, Massimiliano! Judging from you name, we seem to share some common
cultural background ;)
I hope that you'll enjoy learning and using Clojure, and more importantly
that you'll reap the advantages that comes from learning and applying its
Welcome aboard! Fasten your seatbelt, it will be a wild (and exhilarating)
ride. I'm still relatively new, but I've learned enough to know that clojure
(and clojurescript and Datomic) are what I need to be focusing on. Besides all
the other benefits, it's just plain fun. I haven't had this
Thank you both for the warm welcome!
Right now I'm reading Clojure for the Brave and True. I'm not new to
functional programming, but I'm not familiar with LISPy languages.

I second Dan Cross's comment. You also need to get used to *reading*standard
Lisp code indentation. It's not hard, but it's different from
what's common for most languages. Then when your editor reformats your
code, you easily can see whether there's something wrong with your
parentheses.
It's almost cliche to say it, but you really do get used to the parenthesis.
Once you do, you won't give it a second thought, and for me at least, it's the
other languages that start to look weird with their irregular syntax. And at
least one a week I catch myself writing (if ... or (for ...
What's harder than parentheses is the fact that any sort of semantics can
be hidden under simple words in the call position, and everything looks the
same.
It changed how I read code, and it took a while to get used to that.
I wonder if there's a study somewhere on the ergonomics of lisp.
Code
Syntax-highlighting helps, although not for user-defined functions (at
least not in Vim, which is what I use).
