I really like Clojure, but as a complete n00b on Lisp languages, it is frustrating that I many times have to hunt high and low for documentation on basic stuff.
Recently I saw a code snippet that showed that reduce takes an optional initial value, something I didn't know. When I see something new, I usually go back to the documentation or the book I might be reading to see if there is something more to learn about the current function, and to familiarize myself with the documentation. Well, to my surprise and frustration, I haven't found any place which documents that reduce takes an optional initial value. The first impression of the Clojure home page was a nice ordered set of pages of documentation, but I soon realized that listing all the functions with some textual explanation, just doesn't cut it. I usually end up googling for more conrete information that shows me how to actually use the functions. Please, dear very good Clojure creators, if you don't want Clojure to be another language for the specially initiated, good examples will take Clojure to the next level. People are just like Clojure, lazy. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
