We talk about positive nothing and the proliferation of tuples.

Each week, we discuss a different topic about Clojure and functional programming.


If you have a question or topic you'd like us to discuss, tweet @clojuredesign, send an email to [email protected], or join the #clojuredesign-podcast channel on the Clojurians Slack.


This week, the topic is: "first, second, key, and val." We talk about positive nothing and the proliferation of tuples.


Selected quotes:

"Let our ramblings help your code ramblings."
"First is the key."
"Nil, the positive statement of nothing."
"Key and val are a hint that the bit of data you're working on is really a small part of a map."
