I am trying to dump a representation of the contents of a list to file.
I've recently changed how I generated this list and it's now lazy (not really
by design more by side-effect, if you will excuse the poor choice of words).
I was using
(spit file (str lst \n))
which worked quite nicely, but now it is failing. The problem is that I get a
file full of clojure.lang.LazySeq@ lines. The problem comes from LazySeq
directly, as this demonstration with range shows.
user (str (list 1 2 3 4 5 ))
(1 2 3 4 5)
user (str (range 4))
clojure.lang.LazySeq@e1b83
user (println (range 4))
(0 1 2 3)
nil
println is using prn and a multimethod to print out. In fact,
clojure.lang.LazySeq doesn't implement toString, nor does it's super class.
The best solution that I have come up with so far is to do
(str (apply list (range 4)))
I guess I can see why LazySeq doesn't implement toString by printing
everything out, but is there a better way around my problem?
