But for almost every algorithm that appends to the right-hand side of a list, I would convert to Clojure by using a vector instead, and then appending with conj. In Clojure, if you could use conj on a vector but instead use concat on a list, you'll end up with code that is both non-idiomatic and runs slower than necessary. --Chouser http://joyofclojure.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
