Key differences between Clojure and Java

CharacteristicClojureJava
SyntaxClojure has a Lisp-like syntax that is very different from Java's syntax.Java has a C-like syntax that is more verbose than Clojure's syntax.
ParadigmClojure is a functional programming language that emphasizes immutability and pure functions.Java is an object-oriented programming language that supports imperative, procedural, and functional programming styles.
TypingClojure is dynamically typed, which means that type checking is done at runtime.Java is statically typed, which means that type checking is done at compile time.
PerformanceClojure is generally slower than Java due to its dynamic nature and functional programming style.Java is generally faster than Clojure due to its static nature and imperative programming style.
Libraries and frameworksClojure has access to all of the Java libraries and frameworks, as well as its own set of libraries and frameworks.Java has a vast array of libraries and frameworks available for use.
Community and supportClojure has a smaller community than Java, but it is still active and supportive.Java has a large and active community with many resources and support options available.
Learning curveClojure has a steep learning curve due to its functional programming style and Lisp-like syntax.Java has a moderate learning curve due to its object-oriented programming style and C-like syntax.
