So up until now, I've mainly been writing my code in a given file, using no namespaces, and then just compiling and executing it in a SLIME-based REPL.
I've accumulated a few functions that seem worth making into a little library. So, for example, I've written a few permutation functions. I put these functions in a file called permutations.clj. I assume that to properly get reuse of this library, I need to put in a separate namespace (or is this not really necessary?). So, at the top of the file, I add: (ns permutations) Now, when I compile the permutations.clj file in emacs, the REPL can't use the defined functions unless I prefix them with the namespace: (permutations/permutations [1 2 3]) It's a bit of a pain that by making a namespace, I've created more work for myself in terms of using these functions in the REPL. Is there a way to make the REPL automatically see these functions? Next, I want to test whether I can use this library from another file (in the same directory). So I create a testperms.clj file. (ns testperms (:use permutations)) This doesn't work at all, so I must have the syntax wrong. So can someone elaborate, or point me towards a tutorial that explains how to use namespaces to partition your program into files which can use functions from other files in the same directory?
