How to use this tool?

This free online converter lets you convert code from Clojure to Python in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your Clojure code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting Python code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Clojure to Python using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.

Key differences between Clojure and Python

CharacteristicClojurePython
SyntaxClojure's syntax is based on Lisp, which uses a prefix notation and has a lot of parentheses. This can be difficult for some programmers to get used to.Python's syntax is straightforward and easy to read, with a focus on code readability and simplicity.
ParadigmClojure is a functional programming language that emphasizes immutability and pure functions. It also supports object-oriented programming.Python is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming.
TypingClojure is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime.Python is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime.
PerformanceClojure is a compiled language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine, which can provide good performance. It also has good support for concurrency and parallelism.Python is an interpreted language that can be slower than compiled languages. However, it has good support for scientific computing and data analysis through libraries like NumPy and Pandas.
Libraries and frameworksClojure has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Python, but it has good support for web development through frameworks like Compojure and Luminus.Python has a large ecosystem of libraries and frameworks for a wide range of applications, including web development, scientific computing, and machine learning.
Community and supportClojure has a smaller community compared to Python, but it has a dedicated following and good support through online forums and meetups.Python has a large and active community with many resources available for learning and support, including online forums, documentation, and conferences.
Learning curveClojure can have a steep learning curve for programmers who are not familiar with functional programming or Lisp syntax.Python has a relatively easy learning curve, with a focus on readability and simplicity.
