Of course, dotimes could be implemented in terms of doseq, e.g. (dotimes i n ...) (doseq i (take n (iterate inc 0)) ...) so really there aren't any special cases in Clojure. I can't think of anything that is sequence-like but couldn't be represented as a seq, so I think the bases are covered. :-) Best, Graham --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
