I prefer the idea of organizing by tag rather than by category, because some forms fit multiple categories. For example, "pmap" is a kind of map operation, and it's also a parallel operation. Reductions, maps, and scans (Clojure doesn't really have those, does it? well, not _yet_ ;-) ) are all operations on collections. (You're kind of getting there with the "sequence operations to retrieve a single item" / "...multiple items.") mfh --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
