Hello everyone, I am new to this mailing-list and to clojure.
I use Stuart Halloway's 'Programming Clojure' as learning material and reference. While working on a rewrite of one of my old Common Lisp programs, I ran into this strange problem: I want to compute some probabilities concerning the Gaussian distribution. A map contains the pre-computed values for the Integration. For example, one map-entry is 0.05 0.51994. The map is called normality-table. The following works: user> (normality-table 0.05) --> 0.51994 But when I want to wrap this lookup into a function and use an expression a la (normality-table (some-function-that-evaluates-to 0.05)) the return value is nil, i.e. no matching key found. I checked the function that returns the lookup key. It works correctly. Why does the lookup fail when the key is generated by a function? Is there a better way to do this? Comments and Ideas are very much appreciated! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
