The str function has always behaved in the same way. The article is somewhat misleading.
The article does say "strings print without the surrounding quotes", which is true if you're using the function "print" or "println": user=> (println "Hello World") Hello World nil But REPLs print the representation of the evaluated expression. They use "pr" instead of "print" and "prn" instead of "println": user=> (prn "Hello World") "Hello World" nil user=> "Hello World" "Hello World" On 15 January 2018 at 04:26, Alice <dofflt...@gmail.com> wrote: > Unlike explained in http://blog.klipse.tech/clojure/2016/11/24/stringify- > clojure.html (str "Hello\nWorld") just prints "Hello\nWorld"(Surrounding > quotes are preserved and new lines are not interpreted).
