#() is for very short functions, mostly just one-liners, where the (fn []) would add significant noise. The line is blurry and a matter of taste; upper limit is when you need a nested fn, since #(#()) is not possible. Performance is equivalent, since #() desugars into (fn [..]). 2015-08-13 10:14 GMT+02:00 Erik Assum <e...@assum.net>: > (comp last sort) > That's not the same function as #(last (sort %&)) The equivalent would be (comp last sort vec) cheers -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
