Clojure provides only destructuring, not pattern matching. (It's my impression that Rich is not a fan of mixing destructuring with control flow implied by pattern matching.) If you want pattern matching, matchure seems like just what you need. For your particular example, take a look at matchure's defn-match. https://github.com/dcolthorp/matchure // Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
