Clojure, an overview. Introduction gathering.

18:00-18:15: Gathering.

18:15-19:00: Why Clojure?

A closer look at the philosophical foundation of Clojure, its place in computer science in terms of heritage, influence and motivation.

Speaker: Daniel Szmulewicz (http://about.me/daniel.szmulewicz)

19:00-19:15: Break

19:15-20:00: Clojure's data structures

Catering to newcomers, we will hold a workshop-like session in which we will examine the data structures built in Clojure, and why they are said to be both immutable and persistent.

Notes:

Please feel free to come forward and suggest a topic for future meetups.

The Hub TLV is kindly hosting our first meetup on a voluntary and conditional basis, ie. provided nobody rents the studio on said date and time. However, depending on the number of people, there is a smaller space we can use, also courtesy of the Hub. If you're a company and want to sponsor a permanent place for this meetup in or around Tel-Aviv, please do come forward.
