Thanks for the feedback. I have: - Added references to the new clojure/remove and removed the old custom implementation - Added notes about the differences between Enumerable#min/max and clojure/min, /max (the former act on an arbitrary collection, the latter on separate numerical args) - Updated looping methods to use clojure/loop - Added a link on the wikibook
