Chapter 1. Working with Sequences and Patterns
In this chapter, we'll revisit a few basic programming techniques, such as recursion and sequences, with Clojure. As we will see, Clojure focuses on the use of higher-order functions to abstract computation, like any other functional programming language. This design can be observed in most, if not all, of the Clojure standard library. In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Exploring recursion
- Learning about sequences and laziness
- Examining zippers
- Briefly studying pattern matching
