Could someone explain why the first doesn't work and the 2nd does? (let [{:keys [opt1]} [:opt1 true]] [opt1]) ==> [nil]
(let [{:keys [opt1]} '(:opt1 true)] [opt1]) ==> [true] According to http://clojure.org/guides/destructuring "Associative destructuring also works with lists of key-value pairs for keyword-arg parsing." If I read the definition literally, I see, it says "lists" and not "sequences", so the behaviour is correct, so maybe a better question is why the definitions isn't "Associative destructuring also works with sequences of key-value pairs for keyword-arg parsing." It this specific case, when you destructor the args, it looks like a vector, but internally it is a list, so it works.
