Clojure Description

A dynamic programming language that targets the Java Virtual Machine Clojure is interactive, yet compiled, with a robust infrastructure for concurrency (STM). Clojure a functional dialect of Lisp, with a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures and a macro system.Clojure is designed to be a general-purpose language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language - it compiles directly to JVM bytecode, yet remains completely dynamic. Every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection.Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy together with a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language, and features a rich set of persistent, immutable data structures.When mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system that ensure clean, correct, multithreaded designs.NOTE: Conjure is developed, provided and licensed under the terms of the Eclipse Public License 1.0. Here are some key features of "Clojure": · Dynamic Development · Functional Programming · Lisp · Runtime Polymorphism · Concurrent Programming · Hosted on the JVM
