I don't know how to read this: http://www.leonardoborges.com/writings/2012/12/02/monads-in-small-bites-part-ii-applicative-functors/
(defmulti pure (fn [f _] f))(defmethod pure List [_ v] "Wraps value v in a list" (List. [v])) Is this a List followed by a vector of 2 elements, or this a List object whose constructor is being called with 2 arguments? List [_ v] Also, am I correct to say that "_" is used instead of "f" purely to communicate intent to the next human developer who looks at this? It can not be indicating a type or a signature to the JVM, yes? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
