If polymorphism is the appropriate solution, yes. But for a lot of people steeped in OO thinking, polymorphism is a bit of a hammer for every problem that looks like a nail. I don't find I need polymorphism anywhere near as often in FP code as I'm used to using in OO code (caveat: duck typing is a form of polymorphism and that is often my preferred approach even in OO, when I'm using a dynamically typed language...). -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://getrailo.com/ An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
