Apologies in advance on a very newbie question.

I've constructed a sequence

(take 10 (iterate (fn [[a b]] [(* 2 a) (/ a (Math/log a))]) [2 (/ 2
(Math/log 2))])

doing a take 10 on it, produce the pairs I expect.

what I like to know is, how do I filter for with value b is < X

for example, the first 10 produces.

([2 2.8853900817779268] [4 2.8853900817779268] [8 2.8853900817779268]
[16 3.8471867757039027] [32 5.7707801635558535] [64 9.233248261689365]
[128 15.38874710281561] [256 26.380709319112476] [512
46.16624130844683] [1024 82.07331788168325])

what if I want to filter so I only get pairs for which the 2nd value
is < 10. I couldn't figure out how to get
filter to work for pair values.

a 2nd question is more of general clojure idiom, in trying to covert
the following java
code from michaelg's java 1 presentation

private int calcSize(){
  int max = 2;
  while ((max/Math.log(max)) < size &&
    max < Integer.MAX_VALUE && max > 0){
    max *=2;
  }
  return max;
}

My first reaction was to do it using a sequence. Is this the clojure
idiomatic way to convert a
while loop from other languages?

Thanks,
Mac
