Re: Potential Intro clojure projects - libraries and ideas with wow factor

2014-04-16 Thread utel
Thanks Mikera and Andrew for the ideas. Some interesting suggestions there. 
I'll discuss these with my fellow devs. Much appreciated.

 Clojure logic programming with core.logic (something akin to a sudoku 
 solver https://gist.github.com/swannodette/3217582 is a good example) or 
 using datomic to have a database with a time machine and datalog for 
 queries might be cool (perhaps visualizing the data in the database at 
 arbitrary times in the past). Both don't really have equivalents in other 
 languages. Other things that are hard to achieve in other languages would 
 involve the immutable data structures, concurrency, and macros.

 I realise these questions are somewhat open-ended, but just wanted to 
 spark off some ideas for us through bouncing these questions off the google 
 group's members.

 Thanks for any leads!

Re: ClojureScript One - No such namespace error when following Getting Started instructions

2012-01-14 Thread utel
Thanks! Yes, that was exactly the problem.

And... apologies. On reading the wiki page again, it's very clear.

 You are trying to evaluate ClojureScript in a Clojure REPL.

 The easiest way to get a ClojureScript REPL is to run:

 script/cljs-repl

 If you start a ClojureScript REPL manually then you always need to
 load/reload the development page afterwords to establish the
 connection.

  Just one question. I've tried following the instructions on the

  All goes well until the step where I evaluate the expression (js/alert
  hello)

  Then I get the following error:
  CompilerException java.lang.RuntimeException: No such namespace: js,
  compiling:(NO_SOURCE_PATH:1)

  I've tried it on both Linux and OS X 10.7  (both with jdk 1.6.0_29)
  and in both cases get the error above.

  It may be that I've missed something obvious!

  Any help appreciated.

  Thanks.
