The use of "partial" is unnecessary because "apply" takes any number of arguments and expands its last argument.
(apply map vector [[1 2 3] [4 5 6] [7 8 9]]) is equivalent to (map vector [1 2 3] [4 5 6] [7 8 9]) and results in ([1 4 7] [2 5 8] [3 6 9]) On Sun, Nov 14, 2010 at 8:30 AM, Moritz Ulrich <ulrich.mor...@googlemail.com> wrote: >> (apply (partial map vector) [[1 2 3] [4 5 6] [7 8 9]]) > ([1 4 7] [2 5 8] [3 6 9]) > On Sun, Nov 14, 2010 at 2:16 PM, garf <gary.overg...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> (map vector [1 2 3] [4 5 6] [7 8 9]) gives back ([1 4 7] [2 5 8] [3 >> 6 9]) >> but if I have a function that returns the list: >> '([1 2 3] [4 5 6] [7 8 9]) >> and call map vector with the list, then I no longer get ([1 4 7] [2 5 >> 8] [3 6 9]) >> >> i.e. >> (def x '([1 2 3] [4 5 6] [7 8 9])) >> (map vector x) >> ==>([[1 2 3]] [[4 5 6]] [[7 8 9]]) >> >> so is there a way to effectively expand the argument x (map vector x) >> to be >> (map vector [1 2 3] [4 5 6] [7 8 9]) >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google >> Groups "Clojure" group. >> To post to this group, send email to clojure@googlegroups.com >> Note that posts from new members are moderated - please be patient with >> your first post. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to >> clojure+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com >> For more options, visit this group at >> http://groups.google.com/group/clojure?hl=en > > > -- > Moritz Ulrich > Programmer, Student, Almost normal Guy > > http://www.google.com/profiles/ulrich.moritz > BB5F086F-C798-41D5-B742-494C1E9677E8 > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "Clojure" group. > To post to this group, send email to clojure@googlegroups.com > Note that posts from new members are moderated - please be patient with your > first post. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > clojure+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/clojure?hl=en -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
