Never mind- I figured it out looking at the str-utils source...
the answer is (apply str [\t \e \s \t])

Although this shows how to convert a string into a seq of chars, for
the life of me I can't find a function in any libraries (or any info
in the newsgroup) to do the reverse, i.e. (\t \e \s \t) => "test"...
The closest I can find is (print-str [\t \e \s \t])=>"t e s t"
...can anyone give me a po
Thank you all for your replies and your help. I never expected Rich

Good point. Obviously java.lang.String doesn't implement any extra
interfaces.
The correct thing to say is that a String is something seq works on.

I think we all need to be very careful about calling things sequences
which are not. seq can give you a sequential view of many things, but
that does
Welcome to Clojure!
A String is a form of a Sequence, so the correct function is seq.
user=>(seq "test")
(\t \e \s \t)
The sequence abstraction is on of may favorite things about Clojure.
It is an interface most collections implement, and it makes it very
consistent to manipulate any "collectio

'seq' creates a sequence ou
Sorry if this is a FAQ. I'm a Clojure newbie.
What is the best way to iterate through the characters of a string? Is
there some kind of EXPLODE function such that:
=> (explode "test")
(\t \e \s \t)
I did a Google search but the closest thing I found was SUBS:
=>(subs "test" 1 2)
"t"
