Well, considering everyone on here that's answered that question said 'AND', it seems to be obvious. To make the bindings work like let, where later bindings can see previous bindings, I think the most natural way to do it is to have the bindings behave like the maybe monad. The first time you encounter a false value, it fails. This way, you are using 'AND', but you don't run the risk of a NullPointerException in later bindings if a previous one fails. -Walter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
