> Let me know what you all think! In this case, A. I've definitely been known to use composition, but only when the definition is simple and expressive: e.g.,
(def clean-lines (comp non-empty trimmed-lines read-lines)) I find this much nicer than stacking parens: (defn clean-lines [x] (non-empty (trimmed-lines (read-lines x))) though I've never compared efficiency, and I know it makes it harder to add docstrings. This is the difference between 'conventional' and point-free style, by the way. Many people view point-free as being somehow more elegant, and I'm generally inclined to agree... apart from in cases like your example, where a ton of partials need to be added. -R --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
