This looks reasonable. > If it is, it would be very useful to have something that is the > ancestor of everything (like T in common lisp). This has been thought about, at least: http://clojure.org/todo I think the question is... what should the universal ancestor be? For classes, it's java.lang.Object. But "derive" allows you to create relationships outside the Java class hierarchy. So for now, defining your own "root" ancestor is the way to proceed. -Stuart Sierra --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
