 # Adopting The Clojure Mindset
 
-Most languages have reference types and value types, mutables and immutables.  JavaScript is no different, but it suffers gaps when it comes to value types.  It has only the basics, like strings and numbers but in recognizing the deficit aims to fill some of its gaps—[records and tuples](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-record-tuple) and [temporals](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-temporal).

-Understand, however, while functional programming does better when a robust set of value types are present, it's not seriously hindered when they're not.  It can treat reference types as value types.
