Please correct me if I'm wrong but with Lisp I can create any language I want? I can create an OO language or even a FP language?
After finishing the book, what can I do?
How/where I can employ Clojure?
I don't mean using Clojure just because I can of course, I'm just curious if it can brings value to my projects.
For example, suppose I'm doing Java web application, where to use Clojure?
Scala and JRuby.
