Your examples are very good I think. It always helps to have a straight-forward conversion from one language to another for beginners. They will eventually pick up idioms and methodology by playing around.
One comparison that bothers me though is this: (not= (new Exception) (new Exception)) Again, Clojure works just like Python. Two distinct objects are not equal. This is not strictly true. (new Exception) is not equal to (new Exception) because equals() is defined as being an identity comparison. Other classes define equals() differently. eg. (not= (new Integer 2) (new Integer 2)) -Patrick --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
