i would love to know in a bit more detail how Clojure manages to allow arbitrary data structures as keys for its immutable hashmaps hashing an atomic value as a string or number is fast and i see how that would work when atomic values are used as keys but how about using a big nested vector as a key? wouldn't hashing it take an unacceptable amount of time? yet Clojure manages to do just that and i wonder how thank you for any bit of clarification Jay
