I recently raised a similar point regarding `starts-with?` and `ends-with?`
(link - http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1449) and it seems that
Clojure's team acknowledges that this is valid reasoning.
I think you should open a ticket as well as the case you present is pretty
much the same.
I have voted your issue up, and added a comment. Thanks for the link :-)

I recently hit exactly this question in a ClojureScript app I’m writing. It
just so happens that Javascript provides a .indexOf method which is, as near as
dammit, the same as the one provided by Java. So in this instance, portability
isn’t an issue.
But having said that, I would still prefer
Hi all, just nit picking about Clojure's String API.
I've been comparing it with Java's
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_strings.htm, and I noticed that
(not surprisingly) they are very similar.
There are just 2-3 functions that exist in Java but don't have an
equivalent in Clojure. I
Pierre:
I maintain the cheatsheet, and I put .indexOf and .lastIndexOf on there
since they are probably the most common thing I saw asked about that is in
the Java API but not the Clojure API, for strings. There are also links to
whole Java classes and their entire API, e.g. for file I/O, for
Andy,
How much of this reasoning do you think changes when we starting
thinking about being hosted on multiple platforms (I'm thinking
specifically clojure/clojurescript and cljx)?
cheers,

I would have to defer that question to someone who makes decisions
regarding what goes into Clojure/ClojureScript, and what does not.
Of course, anyone else is free to create libraries that try to make
portability between those two platforms easier. Perhaps someone has
already taken a go at
Thank you for your insight Andy :-)
Interesting question Bruce.
