How to use this tool?

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

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

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Python to Clojure 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 Python and Clojure

CharacteristicPythonClojure
SyntaxPython has a simple and easy-to-learn syntax that emphasizes readability and reduces the cost of program maintenance. It uses whitespace indentation to delimit code blocks and has a concise and expressive syntax.Clojure has a Lisp-like syntax that is concise and expressive. It uses parentheses to delimit code blocks and has a functional programming style.
ParadigmPython is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming styles.Clojure is a functional programming language that emphasizes immutability and encourages a programming style that avoids side effects.
TypingPython is dynamically typed, which means that the type of a variable is determined at runtime.Clojure is dynamically typed, which means that the type of a variable is determined at runtime.
PerformancePython is an interpreted language and is generally slower than compiled languages like C or Java. However, it has a number of libraries and tools that can be used to optimize performance.Clojure is a compiled language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and can achieve performance comparable to Java.
Libraries and frameworksPython has a large and active community that has developed a wide range of libraries and frameworks for various purposes, including web development, scientific computing, and machine learning.Clojure has a smaller community than Python, but still has a number of libraries and frameworks available for web development, data processing, and other purposes.
Community and supportPython has a large and active community that provides support through forums, mailing lists, and other channels. It also has extensive documentation and a number of books and tutorials available.Clojure has a smaller community than Python, but still has active forums and mailing lists. It also has extensive documentation and a number of books and tutorials available.
Learning curvePython has a relatively easy learning curve and is often recommended as a first programming language for beginners. Its simple syntax and extensive documentation make it easy to get started.Clojure has a steeper learning curve than Python due to its functional programming style and Lisp-like syntax. However, it has a number of resources available for learning, including books, tutorials, and online courses.
