Thanks Michael, This links are helpful. As far as I can see nothing like contains-val? or seq-contains? has being added though :( I'm trying to use cljs for performance sensitive code and high order functions like `some` don't really do it, while indexOf on strings in JS are well optimised by engines.
Maybe something else can be considered like `includes?` to do that instead ? Also Rich says no better name was suggest for includes?, I think `has?` would have being a lot better name. Don't know if it makes sense to reply to that post at this point.
