I don't think so. Python and Clojure are quite different languages. Python is much more dynamic, with variable lookup happening at runtime. In Clojure, only references to global variables are resolved at runtime. Everything else, in particular lexical environments, are resolved at compile time. Once your code is running, all the local symbols are gone. There are good and bad aspects to both choices, as so often. Python's dynamic-to-the-end approach facilitates debugging, Clojure's compile- as-much-as-possible attitude yields faster code and better compile- time diagnostics. > .. Or a better way to simulate code.interact() ? You would probably have to write a complete Clojure interpreter. Given Clojure's Lisp-ness, that's less of an effort than for other languages, but it's still not a trivial project.
