Description

Hi! In the first example of the [core.async](https://funcool.github.io/clojurescript-unraveled/#channels) section the code shows the following:

```clojure
(put! ch 42)
;; Got a value: 42
;; => 42
```

> Note that put! returned the value that was just put to the channel.

Just running the example in the REPL the `put!` returns `true` instead of `42`.

Research direction

Start with the first core.async example in the core.async section linked in the issue and verify its return value in a ClojureScript REPL. Update the example or accompanying note so it matches the observed put! result, then rerun the example to confirm the documentation is accurate.
