(1 2 3)
map call and map constantly are actually inverse operations.
:) that makes me smile!

That is, the function equivalent to #(%). Or is that the best idiom
there is?

That is indeed nice. Thanks for the code; I guess I don't really have
to settle for #(%) after all.
@RandyHudson: apply would work, but it's pretty slow, and not worth
switching from #(%).

Ah, of course. But then I'm afraid of a time penalty cost, because
apply can take many arguments; would this be significant? Or should I
stick to #(%)?
Clojure 1.0.0-
user= (def a (constantly 55))
#'user/a
user= (time (dotimes [_ 500] (a)))
Elapsed time: 0.389 msecs
nil
user= (time (dotimes [_
I think you need to be careful not to prematurely optimise. If using
apply becomes a problem, then drop in something more efficient, but
until that point there's no reason not to use it.

#(%) is only four characters. Calling apply with only one argument also does
Oh, no. I was just wondering if there was a standard variable devoted
to it. A symbol would be aesthetically less clutter than #(%), even if
it'd take more typing. But if there isn't any other than the slow
apply function, I'm happy with #(%) too. :)
