Abstract

Note: This talk replaces a cancellation for Creating a distuptive property portal with Clojure.

Every language has many pre-defined core functions, so we can quickly get on building what we really want. This ease of use does come with a cost, though. Do we really know the power of the magic that we are wielding? In this presentation we will look at how to implement our own versions of the Clojure functions reduce, count, filter, map and pmap. The pace will start gently for those with little Clojure experience to follow, but will then dive deep to provide a full understanding.
