Executing >1 line of Clojure code in the REPL from Emacs

I'm following the clojure tutorial here and it shows me how to execute one line of clojure code in the repl by invoking C-x C-e at the end of the line. Now how would I execute more than 1 line of clojure code...for example...if I was in a clojure file with lots of code but I only wanted to execute a subset in the REPL....any way to do that?

eg.

...
...
(defn hello-world
 []
 (printf "Hello World")
)
(hello-world)
;; I'd like to execute the previous 5 lines with a key combination
...
...

```

I think you meant C-x C-e, which is what the tutorial uses. Also, could you clarify your code example—what are you trying to do? – Dave Liepmann
The code sample defines a method hello-world and invokes it. I'll correct the C-x C-e – udit

The shortcut C-c C-c executes the entire sexp your on, the top-level form. see all shortcuts for cider here

  1. Select all the sexps you want to evaluate.
  2. M-x cider-eval-regionto evaluate all those statements in order.
