Support by default for new (in Clojure 1.11) core fns and namespaces?

[pmonks]

Problem statement

I use sci (with some scaffolding) as a sandbox where beginners can easily learn Clojure basics. This sometimes verges into math, where new (in Clojure 1.11) fns and namespaces are particularly useful.

Examples include (but are not limited to):

• clojure.core/parse-long
• clojure.core/parse-double
• the clojure.math namespace

Potential solutions (by no means exhaustive)

I would like these core fns and namespaces to be available to sci-executed code by default, just the same as other, older core fns and namespaces are.

Potential alternatives (by no means exhaustive)

In my own scaffolding code I could manually expose these new core fns and namespaces to the sci environment, as described in the sci docs [1] [2]

Additional context

The "scaffolding" I've written happens to be an interactive chat bot, just in case that context is relevant for this issue.

you can use this re-usable configuration from sci.configs:

https://github.com/babashka/sci.configs/blob/main/src/sci/configs/clojure_1_11.cljc

See the README on how to use those in general

As for clojure.math, you can just use sci/copy-ns for that
