I think a function should generally return the same types for different input. A seq and a Java array are two very different things even though Clojure often lets us pass both to the same functions. It seemed like a small fix, but I guess not everyone agrees.
Like a wrote, I think this is small bug. I was just playing around with the function at the repl, and the behavior surprised me, so I thought I would mention it on the mailing list. user=> (bases java.util.List) #<Class[] [Ljava.lang.Class;@315b0333> user=> (bases java.util.ArrayList) (java.util.AbstractList java.util.List java.util.RandomAccess java.lang.Cloneable java.io.Serializable) Cheers, Alf On Mon, Aug 15, 2011 at 08:03, Meikel Brandmeyer (kotarak) <m...@kotka.de> wrote: > Hi, > > Am Mittwoch, 10.
