I'm working through some puzzle problems to help get up to speed on
clojure. Generally I've been able to pound on something for a while
and get the moment of enlightenment but for some reason this seemingly
simple item is stumping me. (FWIW, the puzzle in question is the
crossing a bridge at nigh

I've been working on problems from "Programming Challenges" (Skiena)
to learn clojure. As part of a problem I developed the following
routine. I sort of scare myself how natural thinking in reduce is
getting, but I was wondering if there is a more clever/idiomatic way
to solve this problem.

Thanks. That's helps me think about when/how to use lazy-seq

I was trying out an example from Practical Clojure and I don't
understand why I get different results below? Can someone enlighten
me?
user=> @my-contacts
[# # #]
user=> (:fname (first @my-contacts))
nil
user=> ((first @my-contacts) :fname)
"Luke"
Why would the placement of :fname change how it
