In this guide, we will discuss Clojure Lists. List is a structure used to store a collection of data items. In Clojure, the List implements the ISeq interface. Lists are created in Clojure by using the list function.
Example
Following is an example of creating a list of numbers in Clojure.
(ns clojure.examples.example (:gen-class)) (defn example [] (println (list 1 2 3 4))) (example)
Output
The above code produces the following output.
(1 2 3 4)
Following is an example of creating a list of characters in Clojure.
(ns clojure.examples.example (:gen-class)) (defn example [] (println (list 'a 'b 'c 'd))) (example)
The above code produces the following output.
(a b c d)
Following are the list methods available in Clojure.
