Clojure
Feb 04th 2012 23:58
So the last couple of days had been pretty hectic and I didn't have time to write a new entry. My new endeavour is learning some Clojure. I like learning new programming languages. They really help you understand more of what is going on inside your machine and approach different problems from better directions then you ever could if you know just one language and one paradigm.
Over the years I coded in machine codes (well, not really :)), assembler, C, C++, C#, messed around with Fortran and Pyhton, coded some homework in Prolog and Pascal, made a game in Objective-C, and now, being a web developer, I'm primarily using Ruby, Coffeescript, CSS and HTML (well, html and css are not programming languages, but languages nonetheless). Oh, and I wrote a plugin for Vim in VimL. You can see the pattern...
In the next 6 months I plan to learn Clojure, Erlang and Forth. There is no particular need for it, but I just feel like functional and stack programming languages are never a bad thing to put on your resumé.
What do you think about programming? Have you ever coded anything? Maybe you bought an Arduino ant hacked some kind of home automation thing? Tell me in the comments!

I work with HTML and CSS, but no programming languages. I do design work - websites, graphics, logos, etc. I love how the technical aspect of computers and technology combines with art in these fields :)
