How to use this gist

You've got two main options:

(ns explore-datafy-nav
  "Sample code demonstrating naving around a random graph of data.
   The graph very likely will have circular references, which is not a problem.
   To see the results, execute the entire file.
   Each step in the nav process will be printed out, as well as the initial db.
   Subsequent executions will generate a new random db."
  (:require [clojure.datafy :refer [datafy nav]]))

(defn generate-db
  "Generate a random database of users and departments.

Datafy / Nav Rationale

• The results of eval are not always data
• The results of eval may be very large or deeply nested
• We have strong data handling capabilities in Clojure, so how can we leverage them for non-data?
• Practical consideration: need a console for Datomic Cloud
• datafy: how to make data
• nav: how to get more data

Father Watson is a Jesuit priest with a knack for solving mysteries. Despite his commitment to the Church, he finds himself drawn to the shadowy world of crime and deceit. Whether it's a theft at the local museum or a string of burglaries plaguing the neighborhood, Father Watson is always ready to lend his skills of deduction and observation to the case. With his quick wit and unshakable faith, he is a formidable investigator, able to uncover the truth no matter how deeply it is hidden.

BOOK 1

In "Father Watson's Questions," Father Watson is called upon to investigate a series of strange occurrences at a remote monastery. As he delves deeper into the case, he finds himself confronted with a series of puzzles and riddles that challenge his skills as an investigator. With the help of his keen intellect and faith, Father Watson sets out to solve the mystery, piecing together clues and unraveling a sinister plot that threatens the very foundations of the monastery. Along the way, he must confront his own doubts
