Hi all, I have just started reading this book, and went through the 1st Recipe: https://www.packtpub.com/application-development/clojure-data-structures-and-algorithms-cookbook
Unfortunately, the recipe apparently does not work. On page 2, the author informally describes the recipe as taking: ["a" "a" "a" "b" "b" "b" "b" "b" "b" "b" "c" "c"] and producing a "compressed" version looking like: [3 times "a", 7 times "b", 2 times "c"] i.e., recognizing the repetitions of characters The code in the book (which can be downloaded after registration from the above site), however, produces the following: (LZ77 ["a" "a" "a" "b" "b" "b" "b" "b" "b" "b" "c" "c"] 100) ;=> ["a" [1 1] "a" "b" [1 1] "b" [3 3] "b" "c" [1 1]] (100 is just the size of the history window used by the compression function) While I would have expected: ["a" [1 3] "b" [1 7] "c" [1 2]] Has anyone tried the recipe and can (dis)confirm my experience?
