None. Both are syntax sugar for (. Long MAX_VALUE) > It seems like unchecked-multiply doesn't like vars, but thats surprising. > What am I doing wrong here? unchecked-multiply only does unchecked arithmetic when the arguments are primitive. Vars cannot have primitive values, they must be boxed as java.lang.Long. So it reverts to normal Clojure arithmetic. The unchecked-* functions are intended as a performance optimization when doing operations with primitives. -S -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
