25 recipes to deeply understand and implement advanced algorithms in Clojure
25 recipes to deeply understand and implement advanced algorithms in Clojure
About This Book
- Explore various advanced algorithms and learn how they are used to address many real-world computing challenges
- Construct elegant solutions using impressive techniques including zippers, parsing, and pattern matching
- Solve complex problems by adopting innovative approaches such as logic or asynchronous programming
Who This Book Is For
This book is for intermediate Clojure developers who can read and write in this language quite comfortably. Besides, it is assumed that you have some knowledge of how to set up Clojure projects, include dependencies, how to run REPLs, and so on through Leiningen and Figwheel. No prior awareness of any of the algorithms covered in this book is needed, and, when appropriate, pointers are given to the explanation material about any theory related to them.
What You Will Learn
- Explore alternative uses of classical data structures such as arrays and linked lists
- Explore advanced machine learning and optimization techniques
- Utilize the Clojure libraries, such as Instaparse for parsing, core.match for pattern matching, clojure.zip for zippers, and clojure.matrix for matrix operations
- Learn logic programming through the core.logic library
- Master asynchronous programming using the core.async library
- Observe transducers while resolving real-world use cases
In Detail
Clojure is a highly pragmatic language with efficient and easy data manipulation capabilities. This provides us with an opportunity to easily explore many challenging and varied algorithmic topics, while using some extremely creative methods.
In this book, we'll discover alternative uses for classical data structures (arrays, linked lists, and trees), cover some machine learning and optimization techniques, and even delve into some innovative ways of approaching algorithmic problem solving, such as logic programming, asynchronous programming or the usage of advanced functional constructs, namely transducers or the continuation passing style.

About the Author
Rafik Naccache
Rafik Naccache is a Tunisian, who is experienced in software architecture and is an emergent technology enthusiast. He earned his bachelor's degree in computer science engineering from the University of Tunis in 2001. Rafik fell in love with Clojure back in 2012 and has been developing it professionally since 2013. He has occupied various positions in the telecom and banking sectors and has launched a few innovative start-ups on the Internet, in which he was able to deploy Clojure apps. He also founded the Tunisian Clojure enthusiasts community. He contributes to open source projects such as Cryogen (https://github.com/cryogen-project/cryogen/graphs/contributors) and Milestones (https://github.com/automagictools/milestones).

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
