Notational Conventions

This section describes the conventions used here to describe type signatures.

A [T] is an array-like value (only ever used read-only in this API), i.e., one with an integer length and whose indexed properties from 0 to length - 1 are of type T.

A type T? should be read as T | undefined -- that is, an optional value that may be undefined.

Clojure Destructuring Tutorial and Cheat Sheet

(Related blog post)

Simply put, destructuring in Clojure is a way extract values from a datastructure and bind them to symbols, without having to explicitly traverse the datstructure. It allows for elegant and concise Clojure code.

	;; Looking at the `reduce` docstring, we can define a 'reducing-fn' as:
	(fn reducing-fn ([]) ([accumulation next-input])) -> new-accumulation
	;; (The `[]` arity is actually optional; it's only used when calling
	;; `reduce` w/o an init-accumulator).
