Learn Reduce, Group-by, and Juxt by creating a Look Up Map (Clojure Tutorial)

Sometimes you might need to access records often and quickly. Clojure provides really cool options to get data structured in really nice ways to do that. In this video, I cover 3 of them!

Clojure is awesome, I think where it gets tricky is when you come across functions that aren't common in other languages so when you're starting out using it, they arent the first ones that come to mind (such as juxt and group-by). By running through examples like this I hope to show the utility of those functions in a practical way.
