A few months ago I reread Simon Peyton Joneses article on STM in the
Beautiful Code book and decided to try and translate it into clojures
STM
See the paper here http://research.microsoft.com/pubs/74063/beautiful.pdf
He says 'Atomic blocks as we have introduced them so far are utterly
inadequate
OK, I guess the essence is:
Why does Clojure not need retry or orElse when another implementer of
STM considers them essential?
I'm guessing it's because clojures in MVCC but would like confirmation
and perhaps links to comparisons between STMs and maybe a guide to
Clojures.
How would you solve th

Hello,
I have just been stuck for ages trying to figure out what was going on

Hi Guys,
We seem to have not-any? but not an any? function,
I know we have some but it is not a predicate and I found myself
defining some? above today.
Why not have some? or any? in the core?
Cheers,
Tom

I thought tail recursion was actually not possible on the JVM but saw
a talk on the Erlang VM yesterday and Robert Virding mentioned that
Erjang managed to do it.
I'm sure the core guys have seen it but just in case others thought
the same as me here are a few links:

Hi,
I think a better usage for max-key would be
(max-key f someseq)
rather than passing the values as args.
I used
(defn max-key-seq [f someseq]
(apply max-key (into [f] someseq)))
to make it do what I wanted
Is there a better way?
Cheers,
Tom

I know I should not be naming my functions the same thing as ones in
core but was surprised when I wrote the following

"try" as the fn name and it did not work, I notice

Cheers Stu, should have thought of that.
Am I correct in thinking only 3 possibilitys for "try" in
(try 1)
special form, macro, function
?
Are the special forms imple
Hi Marek,
I too am a mostly Python guy looking at clojure. I think you will like
the for macro as it is a lot like list comprehensions.
I did Euler45 in clojure too and
