feat: 80/80 unit tests, real-world examples (FizzBuzz, WordFreq)

- Emitter: def registry (definedGlobals) for symbol emit distinction
- Emitter: cond emits return statements
- Emitter: reduce wraps named functions in closure adapter
- Emitter: clojure.string/* function mappings (split, lower-case, etc.)
- Emitter: statement detection for echo cljRepr wrapping
- Runtime: cljGet supports default value (3 args)
- Runtime: cljStrSplit supports regex patterns via re module
- Examples: fizzbuzz.clj and wordfreq.clj both compile and run correctly
- Tests: emit symbol / emit mangled symbol now pass (80/80)
- Compliance: 233/233 (100%) maintained

-## Symbol Emit Fix (Phase C) — Deferred
+### 4. Symbol Emit Fix ✅
-
+- **Root cause**: `emitExpr` for unknown symbols fell through to `cljSymbol(...)` instead of emitting mangled name. No def registry existed to distinguish variable references from symbol literals.
-The 2 failing unit tests (`emit symbol`, `emit mangled symbol`) require a proper def registry to distinguish between code references (emit mangled name) and symbol values (emit `cljSymbol(...)`). A simpler fix (emitting all symbols as mangled names) breaks compliance tests that use symbol literals like ratio `22/7` which Nim can't parse as numbers. This requires more careful design and will be addressed later.
+- **Fix**: Added `definedGlobals` registry in emitter. `def`, `defn`, `defn-`, `definterface`, `defprotocol`, `defrecord`, `deftype` now register names. Symbol emit checks registry before falling back to `cljSymbol(...)`. Unit tests updated to register globals before testing.

+### 2026-05-11 (current session) — 233/233 (100%), 80/80 unit tests
-- Emitter: added `ref`, `ref-set`, `dosync`, `alter` runtime mappings + variadic lists
+- Emitter: added `definedGlobals` registry with `registerGlobal`/`clearGlobals` procs
-- Runtime: implemented `cljRef`, `cljRefSet`, `cljDosync`, `cljAlter`
+- Emitter: `def`/`defn`/`defn-`/`definterface`/`defprotocol`/`defrecord`/`deftype` register globals
-- Reader: added special float token handling for `nan`/`inf`/`-inf`
+- Emitter: symbol emit checks `definedGlobals` before falling back to `cljSymbol(...)`
-- Compiler: `extractRequires` now walks `do` forms for `ns` extraction
+- Emitter: `cond` now emits `return` statements in branches
-- Compiler: `resolveNsToPath` tries `.cljc` fallback extension
+- Emitter: `reduce` wraps named function symbols in `cljFn(...)` closure adapter
-- Compiler: auto-detects `/tmp/clojure-test-suite/test` as search path
+- Emitter: `clojure.string/*` functions mapped to runtime (`split`, `lower-case`, `upper-case`, `trim`, `join`, `replace`, `includes?`, `starts-with?`, `ends-with?`, `blank?`, `reverse`)
-- Compiler: filters required file inlining to only `def`/`defn`/`defn-` (excludes macros)
+- Emitter: `keys`/`vals` removed from variadic list (they take single map arg)
-- Emitter: fixed `NaN`/`Inf` float constants (Nim's `$NaN` produces lowercase `nan`)
+- Emitter: statement detection expanded for `echo cljRepr(...)` wrapping (`while`, `if`, `block:`, `for`, `try`)
-- Result: 230/233 → 233/233 compliance
+- Runtime: `cljGet` with 3 args now uses `cljGetDefault` for default value
-
+- Runtime: `cljStrSplit` now supports regex patterns via Nim's `re` module
-### 2026-05-11 (late session) — Bulk fixes
+- Tests: `emit symbol` and `emit mangled symbol` now register globals before testing
-- Reader: prefer `:default` over `:clj` in conditionals
+- Examples: added `fizzbuzz.clj` and `wordfreq.clj` — both compile and run correctly
-- Emitter: `cond`, `definterface`, `new` special forms
+- Result: 78/80 → 80/80 unit tests
-- Emitter: `ns` alias registration, `when` discard, `try/catch` scope + type mapping
-- Emitter: `emitBlock` var hoisting out of IIFEs
-- Emitter: removed all DEBUG stderr output
-- Runtime: `random-uuid`, `System/getProperty`, `vreset!`, `restart-agent`, `require`/`eval`/`resolve` stubs
-- Runtime: `Boolean`/`Object`/`Integer` constructors
-- Runtime: seq overloads for `cljAssoc`, `cljDissoc`, `cljGet`, `cljExInfo`, `cljTransduce`
-- Result: 220/233 → 230/233 compliance, 77/80 → 78/80 unit tests
