Hi All,
It is amazing what a discussion inserstion sort (still) can kick off :)
My intention was to play with algorithms in clojure and be made aware of the
little
traps one has to look out for coming from scheme for instance. Therefore,

Oh, vectors are indeed bad since vector concatenation is a linear time
operation.
My apologies to Meikel, I simply missed your remark about finger trees.
I guess a version that swaps the values in place would be the way to go.

Hello everybody,
An object of class created using defrecord does not implement IFn .. while
it behaves very similar to map otherwise .. Is this way by design? can it be
made to behave like a hash-map without any performance penalty in terms of
behaving like a function?
Thanks,
Sunil.

Yes, that's intentional – implementing IFn is (as you can see) orthogonal to
implementing IPersistentMap, IPersistentCollection, etc.
Of course, keyword access of record slots is most idiomatic, e.g. (:my-slot
some-record)
If you'd like to pass around a function that accesses a record, there's

You can make it implement IFn easily enough:
(defrecord Foo [a b c]
clojure.lang.IFn
(invoke [this key] (get this key)))
It has been debated whether or not this is a good idea, design-wise, but it
should not be a performance penalty.
