I like how few functions clojure has built in (compared to say common lisp). It think this is partly achieved through arity overloading, but also careful choices about what to include based on how easy it is to get what you need through composition. Is it really worth documenting and making everyone learn what "compact" means, so that you can say: (compact coll) instead of: (filter identity coll) ? --Chouser --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
