Here's one definition of comp in terms of reduce: (defn comp [& fs] (reduce (fn [result f] (fn [& args] (result (apply f args)))) identity fs)) It's probably a bit clearer with one of the anonymous functions pulled out and named: (defn comp [& fs] (letfn [(chain [result f] (fn [& args] (f (apply result args))))] (reduce chain identity fs))) They're less efficient than clojure.core/comp's implementation, but I love the versatility of {reduce,fold,whatever}.
