Creating observables

This chapter is all about Reactive Extensions, so let's go ahead and create a project called rx-playground which we will be using in our exploratory tour. We will use RxClojure (see https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxClojure), a library that provides Clojure bindings for RxJava() (see https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJava):

$ lein new rx-playground

Open the project file and add a dependency on RxJava's Clojure bindings:

(defproject rx-playground "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT" 
  :description "FIXME: write description" 
  :url "http://example.com/FIXME" 
  :license {:name "Eclipse Public License" 
            :url "http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl-v10.html"} 
  :dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.9.0"] 
                 [io.reactivex/rxclojure "1.0.0"]]) 

Now, fire up a REPL in the project&apos...
