Neat challenge on stackoverflow:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/372668/code-golf-how-do-i-write-the-shortest-character-mapping-program
I added an implementation in Clojure. One that I'm sure could be
greatly improved on. I don't really care for the extremely obfuscated
examples. Sure

Yes it is!

Nice job as usual, Chouser!
Here's my stroke--now shown to have landed well into the rough:
(defn enc[p t](let[a

Very nice!

You received this
`{0~@(cons 0 (take-nth 2 %2))}
o_O I tried the `...@v} splice in but never imagined doing that!
nice :)
On the subject of splice in, am I alone in thinking
(str ~...@v) is more readable than (apply str v)?
Of course the former doesn't work as there is no preceding syntax-
