Hi,
Just to let you guys know I am paying attention and am trying to get all my
ducks in order. I will definitely check out the resources you've
mentioned. Thank you.

Hi Blake
Brian Marick's book on FP for OO programmers is an excellent book for Clojure
beginners who already have a programming background.

Hi Sam, Lee.
Thank you both.
It would appear that I am faced with the old adage, A little knowledge is
a dangerous thing.
Again thank you, you ' ve been a great help. If I may impose upon you a
little further? Would either of you be able to recommend an introductory
book either for Clojure or
You should try Clojure Programming (Halloway, Bedra). I felt enlightened
after reading the first edition, the second edition is also very good!

Hi Sam, Lee.
Good luck with the learning, by the way! I found that the language had a
definite click after a few weeks, and then I was in for good. Because
the syntax is simple, many of the examples you'll see as you work
through the book have a similar shape to them; I think this makes it
easier to start
I have yet to find a Clojure book I consider suitable for a novice to FP
programming. The problem (it seems to me) is that the people who can write
books on Clojure have long ago made the paradigm shift, and don't
necessarily recall how that shift happened. This is similar to what I've
found in
here are some related resources (books, videos). imbibe all of these
and it might help.

Ok, I'm sure this is heresy, but I'm getting a great deal from Paul Graham's
On Lisp, even though the examples are in Common Lisp. Really amazing stuff!!!

When you're done with On Lisp check out Let Over Lambda. :)

Hi,
I tried to create the function below in a Lighttable instarepl. In lieu of
any better idea for formatting, thestatements below indicate
instarepl output.
(defn avged ([x]
((def sumed (reduce + x)) 10
(def counted (count x)) 4
(def result (/ sumed counted)) 5/2
result
)))
(avged
About code style, don't do defs inside of a function - this binds them
inside the entire namespace, so your values are escaping and persisting
when you just want locals. Use let:
(defn averaged [x]
(let [summed (reduce + x)
counted (count x)]
(/ summed counted)))
That function

You could patch (not recommended!) this by adding do to the beginning of

Or -- I now see, instead of adding the do you could just remove the outermost
