As you can see, the default type for integer literals has changed from Integer to Long with 1.3. I have my misgivings about this change, since 64-bit arithmetic is slower on 32-bit hardware than 32-bit arithmetic and there doesn't seem to be any way in 1.3 to do 32-bit integer arithmetic short of doing the arithmetic in Java. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
