DC ALT.NET - Clojure with Craig Andera
Wednesday, January 27, 2010 7:00 PM, Alexandria, VA, VA
The next meeting of DC ALT.NET will be held on Wednesday, 1/27 from 7-9PM. This month we have Craig Andera to talk about Clojure.
So, what is Clojure?
C# has been adding exciting new features with every release, but many of these have been available in other languages for years or even decades. By examining some of the features of these other languages, we can hope to glean what's in store for the future of C#. Clojure is a JVM-based Lisp with an integral and interesting approach to concurrency. In this talk, we'll examine those features, after a brief introduction to Clojure syntax.
