# The lang/clojure port

## clojure-1.4.0 – Lisp-1 dialect for the Java Virtual Machine

## Description

    "Clojure is a dynamic programming language that targets the Java Virtual
    Machine. It 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 and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a
    functional programming language, and features a rich set of immutable,
    persistent data structures. When mutable state is needed, Clojure offers
    a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system that
    ensure clean, correct, multithreaded designs."
