Your function is essentially: (= (map count coll) 1)
So you're applying the function "count" to each element in the collection. Let's say your collection is: [1 2 3] Then you're trying to evaluate: [(count 1) (count 2) (count 3)] Clojure is raising an exception that says "I can't count a number, I can only count collections". - James On 9 May 2014 17:42, Roelof Wobben <rwob...@hotmail.com> wrote: > I try to make this assigment : > > Write the function (contains-duplicates? sequence) that takes a sequence > as a parameter and returns true if sequence contains some element > multiple times.
