Not all at one day, but slowly function after function. If I saw a function in other people's code, which I didn't know, I looked it up. Or I read through the overview list and thought „WTF does alter-var-root do?“ Then it was either something „Dang! I need this twice a day. Why don't I know about it?“. Then I would certainly not forget it anymore. Otherwise I would at least remember „There was something.“ and know where to search in the documentation to find the details again if needed. Of course there are also functions, which I constantly forget. for is such a candidate. When it was new I *always* forgot about it. I built complicated mapcat-reduce-map combinations, which where a simple, short for. Even nowadays I have to remind myself about for every now and then. Such things trickle in slowly. However, this process is called „learning“ and there is no short-cut to it. This process takes time. There is no „I know Kung-Fu.“ in the real world. cf. http://norvig.com/21-days.html Sincerely Meikel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
