{"product_id":"9781782165613","title":"Clojure High Performance Programming","description":"\u003cb\u003eIn Detail\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eClojure is a young, dynamic, functional programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine. It is built with performance, pragmatism, and simplicity in mind. Like most general purpose languages, Clojure’s features have different performance characteristics that one should know in order to write high performance code.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClojure High Performance Programming is a practical, to-the-point guide that shows you how to evaluate the performance implications of different Clojure abstractions, learn about their underpinnings, and apply the right approach for optimum performance in real-world programs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book discusses the Clojure language in the light of performance factors that you can exploit in your own code.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou will also learn about hardware and JVM internals that also impact Clojure’s performance. Key features include performance vocabulary, performance analysis, optimization techniques, and how to apply these to your programs. You will also find detailed information on Clojure's concurrency, state-management, and parallelization primitives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is your key to writing high performance Clojure code using the right abstraction, in the right place, using the right technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApproach\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a short, practical guide that will teach you everything you need to know to start writing high performance Clojure code.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho this book is for\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is ideal for intermediate Clojure developers who are looking to get a good grip on how to achieve optimum performance. You should already have some experience with Clojure and it would help if you already know a little bit of Java. Knowledge of performance analysis and engineering is not required. For hands-on practice, you should have access to Clojure REPL with Leiningen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47152335126768,"sku":"9781782165613","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781782165613_p0.jpg?v=1763718142","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781782165613","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
