What is clojure useful for?


Asked by Ryland Hayden on Nov 30, 2021 FAQ



Clojure is being used extensively for processing large volumes of data. It is very well suited to data mining/commercial-AI (ie: Runa) and large scale predictions (aka WeatherBill). Clojure's concurrency story really helps in these data heavy domains where parallel processing is simply the only answer.
Moreover,
Clojure is used for everything from simple web sites to desktop applications to music synthesis systems to cloud-based Twitter analysis engines to high-frequency trading. It's a powerful tool for building high-leverage abstractions. And its simplicity makes it great for managing the complexity of the real-world.
Just so, CL only includes lists in its core language spec. Clojure introduces vectors, sets, and maps which makes reading and writing code so much less tedious. Of course Scheme has all of these except sets. Clojure's core data structures are immutable which, as discussed above, makes reasoning about code, especially concurrent code, much easier.
One may also ask,
Clojure is a dynamic, general-purpose programming language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language, yet remains completely dynamic - every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime.
Besides,
The slow cooker is very useful for people who go out all day... The drug will be useful to hundreds of thousands of infected people. That basket would be useful for picnics.
