Understanding Clojure Transducers Through Types by Franklin Chen.

From the post:

Yesterday, Rich Hickey published a blog post, “Transducers are Coming”, which attracted a lot of attention.

I have a confession to make, which I have made before: I find it very difficult to understand ideas or code not presented with types. So I decided that the only way I could possibly understand what “transducers” are would be to actually implement them in a typed language. I ended up doing so and am sharing my findings here.

Franklin’s post is some of the discussion that Rich Hickey promised would follow!

Read both the post and the comments, which includes further comments from Rich Hickey on transducers.

I first saw this in a tweet by Bruno Lara Tavares.
