Surely undocumented behavior is undefined behavior by definition? That's certainly the approach taken by many programming language standards. In which case, giving any function invalid input is immediately in undefined behavior territory and the output is "guaranteed" to be undefined - unless explicitly documented to the contrary (e.g., when given invalid input, this function shall throw an exception). -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
