How about using (empty map):
(defn select-keys2
"Returns a map containing only those entries in map whose key is in keys"
{:added "1.0"}
[map keyseq]
(loop [ret (empty map) keys (seq keyseq)]
(if keys
(let [entry (. clojure.lang.RT (find map (first keys)))]
(recur
(if entry
(conj ret entry)
ret)
(next keys)))
ret)))
user=> (type (select-keys2 (sorted-map-by > 3 1 2 4 5 3) (list 5 2 3)))
