Three weeks ago I stumbled across the Anti-If Campaign (

An instant later I realized that one could easily re-implement if in
Clojure with maps. More interestingly, polymorphic functions can be easily
motivated with the help of maps. And this naturally leads to
After seeing [1] from Rich Hickey I wondered what he means with
replace if statements with polymorphic functions? Why and how
exactly should I do it? Your blogpost opened my eyes. Thanks a lot
