## REPL Interaction
199199

200-
A number of options exist for connecting to a running Clojure process
201-
and evaluating code interactively.
200+
One of the fundamental aspects of Lisps in general and Clojure in
201+
particular is the notion of interactive programming - building your
202+
programs by continuously changing the state of the running Lisp
203+
program (as opposed to doing something more traditional like making a
204+
change and re-running the program afterwards to see the changes in
205+
action). To get the most of clojure-mode you'll have to combine it
206+
with some tool which will allow you to interact with your Clojure programm
207+
(a.k.a. process/REPL).
