You also assume keys are comparable or that 'conj order' is retained, which
is often not true. Consider following map:
(your-dissoc {2 1, :a 1, "foo" 1, 'bar 1} 2)
=>
Vectors are indexed and maps are associative. These two concepts share some
functionalities (assoc, get), but are otherwise v

Problem is, when your proposed dissoc removes value from a vector, it
shifts all larger keys. So dissoc would not only remove value at index
position, but also change keys for pther values. And this is not what
dissoc should do

Typo:

(dissoc some-vector 2) ;; proposed

So then (get (dissoc some-vector i) i) would be equivalent to (get
some-vector (inc i))?

Hi Andy,
Thanks for your interest! This is the "ideal" behavior I would expect from
dissoc, for consistency with assoc:
(assoc ['a 'b 'c] 1 'x)
;
What would you expect the return value of (dissoc ['a 'b 'c] 1) to be?

I realize `dissoc` isn't implemented to work on vectors for technical
reasons (such as explained on 1/13/11 here
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/clojure/Lx9ysZ4ndfw/E52rVTvclMoJ ).

feels like an inconsistency when u
