I still use #() for anonymous single argument functions that are small, single forms, but I've started switching to (fn [..] ..) for anything even slightly more complex because, like you, I find having a named argument to be worth the extra typing, even if it is just a single letter, suggestive of the argument type. Today I found myself writing (fnil #(conj % id) []) a couple of times because (fnil (fn [v] (conj v id)) []) doesn't seem any clearer - but suggestions for nicer code are always welcome. It's part of (swap! some-atom update-in [:path :to :item] ...) if that helps :) Sean -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
