Figure 7-2: Lists can easily be treated as trees.

First, Clojure’s reader converts the text (+ 1 (* 6 7)) into a nested list. (You’ll learn more about the reader in the next section.) Then, Clojure’s evaluator takes that data as input and produces a result. (It also compiles Java Virtual Machine (JVM) bytecode, which you’ll learn about in Chapter 12. For now, we’ll just focus on the evaluation model on a conceptual level.)

With this in mind, Figure 7-3 shows what Clojure’s evaluation process looks like.
