Some languages have pattern matching, and Clojure is said to not have it (without a library), but it does have destructuring.
It seems to me that destructuring is the same as pattern matching, except that it can only be used inside function arguments, where as pattern matching can also be used when assigning a value or inside case switch statements. Is that truly the only difference? And if so, why the different terminology? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
