How can you distinguish good clams?

The clam should be fully closed before being cooked. If it is slightly ajar, squeeze it shut a couple times. If it's good (alive) it will take the hint and stay shut. If it's bad (dead) it will spring back open. Throw these away.

After cooking them (probably steaming) the opposite is basically true. The ones that are open are good. Throw away the ones that won't open.
