Any examples gratefully accepted. (dochars [ch "Hello, World!"] (println ch)) I suppose it is faster than doseq, which should probably work similar to dochars for strings. dochars is purely for side-effects since it will always return nil. So if you want to do something functionally with every character you probably want to map a function over the string or use for.
