Hey all, I am just picking up Clojure here for the first time, sorry about the relative newbie question. One thing I noticed is that the REPL prints out a sequence as a list, basically eval'ing rest until it sees nil. This threw me off a bit when first learning the language in the last day because it's not clear in the REPL output that this expansion is taking place. Is there a logical reason this should just be implictly expanding or is it an ease of use thing? Basically it seems that perhaps it might be useful to somehow annoate the REPL output indicating where a seq expansion into a list has taken place. Ie:
=> '(1 2 3) (1 2 3) => (seq '(1 2 3)) ?(1 2 3) or (1 2 3)? Where ? would be an ascii character, 'seq', or something of someone smarter than myself's choosing :) This could be a REPL option, akin to showing whitespace in a text editor or something. (Or, it might just be my newb goggles causing me pain that will go away in the next 24 hours :)) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
