Kelker Ryan's solution isn't quite what you asked for (you asked for a
function that takes a vector and returns an iterator, whereas his version
stores the vector in a global var), but it can easily be adapted to what
you wanted:
(defn make-blah [v]
(let [a (atom v)]
(fn [] (let [x (first @a)] (swap! a rest) x))))
That's the general approach to creating a function that needs its own
internal state. However, in this case, since what you want is an iterator,
why not just use Java interop?
(defn make-blah [^Iterable v]
(let [i (.iterator v)]
(fn [] (when (.hasNext i) (.next i)))))
=> (def blah (make-blah [1 2 3]))
#'mark.scratch/blah
=> (blah)
1
=> (blah)
2
=> (blah)
3
=> (blah)
nil
