you don't need 'fn' when you're using #(...) - that is the whole point. To not have to declare a function and its args explicitly.

this particular example you cannot write using #() syntax though because it is recursing at 2 points and you cannot use 'recur'.

I know this fibonacci function is not optimal but I want to learn one step at a time. I want to be able to apply this approach to 4clojure which disallows a lot of things including defn.

This is my implementation so far:

(defn fib [x]
   (cond
      (= x 0) 0
      (= x 1) 1
      :else
         (+ (fib (- x 1)) (fib (- x 2)))))


So I thought about something like this:

(#(fn fib [x]
   (cond
      (= x 0) 0
      (= x 1) 1
      :else
         (+ (fib (- x 1)) (fib (- x 2)))))
              8)

But trying that in a REPL I get error:

clojure.lang.ArityException: Wrong number of args (1) passed to: sandbox28956$eval28971$fn

So how can I call this as a one line REPL?

I though using apply with a one element list might work, but no.

(apply #(fn fib [x](cond (= x 0) 0 (= x 1) 1 :else (+ (fib (- x 1)) (fib (- x 2))))) '(8))
