If you are reading the book and just beginning to learn Clojure, make sure you grab the master branch of this project instead, from

http://github.com/stuarthalloway/programming-clojure/

The master branch has all the files exactly where the book says they will be.

This branch of the Programming Clojure sample code has been updated to run with Clojure 1.2. The code changes are small: Clojure has been remarkably stable over the 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 releases. You can see the changes I made for 1.1 here and for 1.2 here. Even most of these changes were for Clojure-contrib, not Clojure itself.

(While the code changes are small, almost every file has moved. Since I wrote the book, conventions for directory structure and tools for dependency management have emerged to support Clojure. To take advantage of these changes I moved things around.)

• Make sure you have Java installed.
• Make sure you have leiningen installed.
• Clone the labrepl project and change directory into it.
• Run lein deps to install all the dependent libraries.
• Run script/repl to launch a repl.

Labrepl is a free, open-source environment for exploring the Clojure language. It includes:

• a web application that presents a set of lab exercises with step-by-step instructions
• an interactive repl for working with the lab exercises
• solutions with passing tests
• up-to-date versions of Clojure, contrib, incanter, compojure and other libraries to explore

Rich Hickey, the creator of Clojure, and Stuart Halloway, the author of Programming Clojure, provide Clojure training through the Pragmatic Studio.
