Another option to consider: Treat the problem as a `reduce` on the sequence of adjustments where the processing of each adjustment depends on the user input and "cancel" makes the processing return (reduced nil) to halt the reduction. That will stop automatically when the sequence of adjustment

How about: (doseq [i [1 2 3 4] :while (< i 3)] (println i)) Alternatively, if you need some outside state you can: (let [stop-i (atom 3)] (doseq [i [1 2 3 4] :while (< i @stop-i)] (println i))) Rangel @raspasov On Sunday, March 1, 2015 at 2:30:22 AM UTC-8, Cecil Westerhof wrote

A really good tip I read somewhere was that before you write *any* of your own code check the core API and libs - it is almost certainly there. https://jafingerhut.github.io/cheatsheet/grimoire/cheatsheet-tiptip-cdocs-summary.html, clojuredocs.org and http://www.clojure-toolbox.com are invaluab

I know what you mean. After a year or so I still oscillate between a day of: - naval gazing to uncover a lovely clean design, a few trivial bits of clojure later and out comes a lovely, incidental-complexity free implementation that reads like a conversation from the domain actors in the real worl

I would replace it with loop/recur or a while, with both checking a termination flag (probably an atom) which is set by the user. An alternative approach would be core.async with a stop channel and then use alt! to check them both simultaneously. On 1 Mar 2015 10:30, "Cecil Westerhof" wrote: > I

Breaking out of a sequence

2015-03-01 Thread Cecil Westerhof
I have a program where I change a lot of records based on id's in a sequence. It is a manual process, so I want to give the user an option to terminate the sequence. What would be the correct way to stop (for example) a doseq? -- Cecil Westerhof -- You received this message because you are subs
