Along the same lines of this being a manual way to do TCO, that issue will need to be handled manually as well. Here's what (doc trampoline) has to say about it: user=> (doc trampoline) ------------------------- clojure.core/trampoline ([f] [f & args]) trampoline can be used to convert algorithms requiring mutual recursion without stack consumption. Calls f with supplied args, if any. If f returns a fn, calls that fn with no arguments, and continues to repeat, until the return value is not a fn, then returns that non-fn value. Note that if you want to return a fn as a final value, you must wrap it in some data structure and unpack it after trampoline returns. nil --Steve --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
