Hi Cecil,
For precise timing benchmarks, use criterium [1].
For simple, gross timing, use
(map #(time (foo %)) numbers)
or to convert your code to something more functional (and including defns
for now and foo):
(defn now [] (. System currentTimeMillis))
(def numbers '(4 6 8 10))
(defn foo [n] (reverse (map #(* % %) (range (Math/pow n 5)))))
(count (foo 10))
(defn timed-foo [times n]
(let [start (now)]
(foo n)
(conj times (- (now) start))))
(reduce timed-foo [] numbers) => [0 0 4 14]
