Getting benchmarking right
Feb 28th
Several times on this blog, I’ve dealt with issues where some kind of benchmarking was required. The method, implementation, environment all play a role and has subsequently been the object of much discussion. In this post let’s see if we can agree on some way of benchmarking.
Haskell,Ruby,Scala,Clojure — Tweaked!
Feb 24th
Last night I did very small superficial comparison, of 3 ways of getting the first fibonnaci number consisting of 1000 digits. This attracted a lot of attention from Rubists, Haskaloonies and Clojurians alike, here I’ll share their contributions.
Clojure, Haskell & Ruby Vs Euler 25
Feb 23rd
Haskell is a mature, statically typed, functional language which was recently compared to Ruby in an attempt to solve Euler #25. In this post I’ll share the code, the benchmark and add a Clojure version for those interested.
My tribute to Steve Ballmer
Feb 12th
These days Microsoft is often being hammered in both the news and in Open Source communities across the globe, so on behalf of the Clojure community I would like to submit a small tribute to the man at the wheel, Steve Ballmer.
Simplicity on Steroids
Feb 4th
Today I had a lot of fun reading about a for-constructs on steroids. The author of that post explores the possibilities which come with the built-in pattern matching in Scalas for-construct, so I’ll do the same with Clojure.
Global Warming Vs Clojure!
Jan 27th
Nobody who’s connected to the rest of the world, either via TV or the Internet is unaware of Global Warming — This phenomenon which threatens to destroy us all if we don’t collectively assume responsibility for the globe. Here’s my contribution to a solution in 98 lines of heavy computational Clojure! More >
Enlive Vs Clojure-mode
Dec 29th
Last night I published a screencast and in response to a comment I uploaded the htmlized source-code used in the screencast. The highlighting wasn’t working for me, so I put Emacs and Enlive to work!
Clojure vs Ruby & Scala — Transient Newsgroups
Dec 13th
Recently I had the good pleasure of reading a blogpost which demonstrated a fun exercise in both Ruby and Scala, namely scraping newsgroups. I had a look at both solutions and decided to roll one in Clojure as well, examining the differences between the famous Ruby, the Juggernaut Scala and the elegant Clojure.
ClojureQL — Where are we (going) ?
Dec 10th
ClojureQL is now coming dangerously close to version 1.0. Despite its young age, its already been adopted several interesting places, among others in the Danish Health Care industry. Before we ship version 1.0, I want to walk through some of the features and design decisions as well as encourage comments, criticisms and patches.
