Presentation InformationClojure Life by Alex Miller

Clojure is a new language that combines the power of Lisp with an existing
hosted VM ecosystem (the Java VM).  Clojure is a dynamically typed,
functional, compiled language with performance on par with Java.

This talk will introduce the Clojure language using Conway’s classic ”game
of life” with cellular automata.  We’ll look at a Clojure implementation and
explore different design choices around data representation and concurrency
while digressing to teach the basics of the language itself.
