defoncedefonce defines variable only if it has never been defined before:
(defonce y 9)
y9
If you try to re-define it, it won't work:
(defonce y 10)
y9
(let [[a b c] '(1 2 3)] (println a b c))1 2 3
Check if something is nil:
(nil? nil)true
Check if something is NOT nil:
(some? nil)false
(some? 1)let can be used to define a variable in a specific scope:
(let [z 5] z)5
z is not defined outside of the scope:

#() with % used as arguments (%1, %2 for first and second arguments)

'(1 2 3)(1 2 3)
(first '(1 2 3))1

(some) alone only returns nil, not false

"get" can be omitted

(if true "this is true" "this is false")this is true
(if false "this is true" "this is false")this is false
Only handles "true", and wrapped in an implicit (do) statement
(when true (println "this is true") (println "this is also true"))this is true
this is also true
(def x 10)
(cond (= x 10) "true")| #'user/x |
| "true" |
Note: for this type of conds, if the first is true, it won't continue
(def x (rand-int 50))
(cond
(> x 40) "more than 40"
(> x 30) "more than 30"
(> x 20) "more than 20"
(> x 10) "more than 10"
:else "neither")| #'user/x |
| "more than 30" |
Another example
(def x (rand-int 50))
(cond
(> x 40) "more than 40"
(> x 30) "more than 30"
(> x 20) "more than 20"
(> x 10) "more than 10"
:else "neither")| #'user/x |
| "neither" |
(let [name "Damien"]
(case name

(let [name "Émilie"]
(case name
"Damien" "my real name"
"Émilie" "my wife's name"
"Nicolas" "my brother's name"))my wife's name
Can provide a default:
(let [name "Hugo"]
(case name
"Damien" "my real name"
"Émilie" "my wife's name"
"Nicolas" "my brother's name"
"Unknown name"))Unknown name
Can "match" multiple values using a list:
(let [name "Émilie"]
(case name
("Damien" "Émilie" "Nicolas") "a family member"
"not a family member"))a family member
