Do you mean the reader? user=> (read-string "(+ 1 2)") (+ 1 2) user=> (first (read-string "(+ 1 2)")) + user=> (type (first (read-string "(+ 1 2)"))) clojure.lang.Symbol user=> (type (second (read-string "(+ 1 2)"))) java.lang.Integer Or perhaps quote is what you're looking for? user=> (second '(+ 1 2)) 1 There's no need for a syntax like [:list [[:symbol +]]] etc as (+ 1 2) literally is just a list of a symbpl and two Integers, you just need to use quote to tell Clojure not to evaluate it. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
