That's really nice!
Here is my perverse entry for fun:

Thanks, all, that's enlightening. So if I understand correctly, I
designed hexchar? to accept a string argument, which means it needed a
CharSequence, right? But instead it was getting a Char, which is not
the same thing as a one-character string, and thus was not a
CharSequence.
Yahrgh, I've bee

The problem is that hexchar? expects a CharSequence, but by using
every? you're actually passing a Character into it. The quick fix is
to change hex? to (defn hex? [s] (every? #(hexchar? (str %)) s)).
However, the better solution is probably to change hexchar? to accept
Characters instead -- a la
Hi all, newcomer to clojure/lisp/fp here. I'm working my way through
the Programming Clojure book (very excellent, well worth the money),
and doing some dabbling in the REPL, and I'm seeing something that
puzzles me. In the book there's an example of a clojure blank?
