Designate, yes. Find, no, if I understand what you're saying. There's no index / repository / collection / directory / table-of-contents / etc corresponding to the set of namespaces nor to the sets of symbols within each namespace, right? So if I hand you a symbol or a keyword, you can tell me the namespace portion of that symbol or keyword and thus verify that it is or is not equal to some specified one, but as you've pointed out, you cannot enumerate all the symbols or keywords bearing a particular namespace portion nor can you enumerate the distinct namespaces extant at any given juncture during the execution of some Clojure code. Is all that correct? Some of it? Any of it? > Rich Randall Schulz --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
