Chapter 4. Collections and Functional Programming

We are now comfortable with using Java code from our Clojure programs, and we also know how to expose our Clojure programs with a Java API. However, we need to take a deeper look at Clojure and its true nature, which is functional programming.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Basics of functional programming
  • Persistent collections
  • Sequential and associative collections
  • The sequence abstraction
  • Collection types
  • Applying functional programming to collections
