I seem to prefer writing point-free and reading conventional. :) Haskell seems to have brainwashed me that point-free style reduces bugs. I say brainwashed because I can't remember the reasoning to back up the idea, other than to mumble something about less code being good. I suspect type checking plays a big role, correspondingly minimizing the utility when imported here and compared to the other styles. In this case I would say I prefer Meikel's solutions most of all. Still, I wouldn't avoid comp and partial; they have some good applications (no pun intended). — Daniel Lyons --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
