ClojureScript sample code

;; Some examples of Clojure syntax. ClojureScript is almost entirely identical
;; to Clojure.

;; Anything preceded by semicolons is a comment. Double-semicolons are
;; generally doc comments; single semicolons are developer comments.

;; Familiar array type, called a "vector"; cannot be lazy
