# How the event works<
br>
After we have decided on some challenges for the evening\, we break
into small groups (2-4 people) and see how far we can get. After about 90
minutes we get together and share what we have learnt\, showing code and
demo's of it in action. # Requirements
If you have a laptop with a
working Clojure environment please bring it along. As we arrange ourselves
into small groups\, if you don't have a laptop you can still join in.
We are collecting all our kata solutions here\, take a peek at what we
've done so far (https://github.com/glasgow-clj/dojofun)
# Discussi
ons
We&rsquo\;ll be discussing the meetup on the london-clojurians
mailing list (http://groups.google.com/group/glasgow-clojurians-group/)
If you want to know how to run your own dojo or get an idea of what d
ojos are like you can read more at http://otfrom.wordpress.com/2010/10/26/

# Backgro
und
Clojure is a JVM language that has syntactically similarities t
o Lisp\, full integration with Java and its libraries and focuses on provi
ding a solution to the issue of single machine concurrency.
Its sma
ll core makes it surprisingly easy for Java developers to pick up and it p
rovides a powerful set of concurrency strategies and data structures desig
ned to make immutable data easy to work with. If you went to Rich Hickey&r
squo\;s LJC talk about creating Clojure you&rsquo\;ll already know this\,
if not it&rsquo\;s well worth watching the Rich Hickey &ldquo\;Clojure for
Java Programmers&rdquo\; (http://skillsmatter.com/podcast/java-jee/clojur
e-for-java-programmers) video or Stuart Halloway &ldquo\;Radical Simplicit
y&rdquo\; (http://skillsmatter.com/podcast/java-jee/radical-simplicity) vi
deo.
