I'm new to clojure. I've return an utility function to filter a sequence of map by some key but it's not working. Here is the sample code -
(def data [{:id 1 :b 2} {:id 3 :b 4} {:id 5 :b 6} {:id 7 :b 8}]) In real app this is a sequence of maps read from csv file. (defn get-data [& attrs] (let [grps data] (if (empty? attrs) grps (map #(select-keys % attrs) grps)))) (filter #(= (% :id) 7) (get-data :id :b)) Why above expression works but same expression wrapped as function (below) does not work? (defn get-data-by-id [id & attrs] "always pass :id attribute" (filter #(= (:id %) id) (get-data attrs))) (get-data-by-id 3) ;; returns () this is probably ok (?) since :id key is not available (get-data-by-id 3 :id :b) ;; returns () but why this does not work? Pleas help me to figure this out. thanks & cheers! -tilak -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
