An opinionated list of excellent Clojure learning materials

An opinionated list of excellent Clojure learning materials

These resources (articles, books, and videos) are useful when you're starting to learn the language, or when you're learning a specific part of the language. This an opinionated list, no doubt. I've compiled this list from writing and teaching Clojure over the last 10 years.

  • 🔴 Mandatory (for both beginners and intermediates)
  • 🟩 For beginners
  • 🟨 For intermediates

Generate a random HEX color in cojure or clojurescript
(require '[clojure.string :as s])
;; My initial attempt
(def c [:0 :1 :2 :3 :4 :5 :6 :7 :8 :9 :A :B :C :D :E :F])
(str "#" (s/join (map name (repeatedly 6 #(rand-nth c)))))
;; Another option not using keywords (/ht locks in #clojure)
(def c [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 \A \B \C \D \E \F])
(str "#" (s/join (repeatedly 6 #(rand-nth c))))
;; the last line can be simplified even more (/ht xificurC in #clojure)
