It's confusing that the REPL prints out a list structure when it's in fact a sequence:
Eg. (seq [1 2 3]) ;=> (1 2 3) People might think it's a list, but it's a sequence (logical list in memory only, not a new data structure). (seq? (seq [1 2 3])) ;=> true (list? (seq [1 2 3])) ;=> false I feel that it would be better if it was printed out in a structure letting people know that it's a sequence so we don't mix list with sequence structures. Perhaps something like: (lazy-seq [1 2 3]) (seq [1 2 3]) or something telling users it's a sequence. Clojure is a great lang since it's focused on simplicity. I feel the way it works currently is adding unnecessary complexity in understanding what sequence really is, and is not.
