Hi Chick, there's nothing stopping you re-binding x within the let
construct, eg;

(defn myfn [x]
  (let [x (if (or (nil? x) (< x 0.2)) 0.0 x)
        x (if  (>= x 0.8) 1.0 x)]
    (do-something-with x)))

That technique helps a lot of the times you think you need mutable
variables. Nested lets are also useful.

-Rgds, Adrian.
