Other languages worth "dipping one's toe into" could be: > C++ for low-level programming > Javascript for mainstream client-side web programming > Haskell for pure functional > Scala for a functional/OO hybrid with an intricate type system and a > robust dataflow > ML to understand the style of pattern matching over abstract data types > > >
The paths you describe look excellent. I am in the low foothills of Clojure at the moment. Here's a blog about my first published Clojure program: http://controlroom.blogspot.com/2015/07/ramping-up.html The Clojure programmers on the Google Group are already telling me ways to refactor. Thanks for your insights. Next I have more followup based on my experiences at OSCON this year. edu-sig seems an appropriate venue. Kirby
