Thank you.
You can combine 'drop and 'drop-last to get a seq version of subvec (but lazy and O(n)). As for the issue of concrete types: in general, clojure's sequence functions return seqs, not instances of whatever concrete type you gave them. If you need a specific type, you normally just pour the result through 'into or one of the specific collection creation functions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
