That's interesting. It seems it's the last form in the list that's being returned, and it doesn't matter what function you apply (apply '+ '(2 1)) ;=> 1 (apply '+ '(1 2)) ;=> 2 (apply 'map '(2 1)) ;=> 1 I don't have any immediate thoughts on why it behaves like that, though I'm sure there's a reason (?). > I could use eval but eval is bad (apparently)... You could use clojure.core/resolve instead, I think that should be safe. (let [f '(+ 1 1)] (apply (resolve (first f) (rest f)))) ;=> 2 -- John Mastro -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
