Hi all,

I was just wondering whether there is any particular preference between storing fns in maps via #' or simply the name of the var?
example:

(defn foo [a b] ...)
(defn bar [c d] ...)

(def actions {:act-foo foo ;;1st
                     :act-bar #'bar}) ;;2nd

I understand that the first one will essentially store a pointer to the actual function held by the 'foo' var, while the second one will store a pointer to the actual var which sounds slightly more flexible to me (the var can be potentially rebound to something else which may or may not be useful)...

Is there a preferred way between the 2? not that I'm facing any functionality problems with either - just curiosity...

Jim
