I actually really do like the reduce with early exit abstraction. Because ultimately, that's what the question is. It's a reduce with optimization.

The early exit condition is very likely to *not* depend on the reduce accumulator, but rather on some intermediate calculation in the reduce function. It is possible to write something like this. But some people might be concerned with how idiomatic this is. (my_reduce (fn [a b c] (if bla-bla (break))) initial_value collection) where (break) exits the immediate surrounding reduce. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
