There you can "pipe" the result of a test expression into the result expression using "=>". (cond (test-expr => result-expr)) result-expr should actually be a function, which is called with the result of the test-expr. If you don't need this, you don't have to use it. (condp instance? x String "some string")) is (more or less) equivalent to (cond (instance? String x) "some string")) Sincerely Meikel --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
