Hi, Create & use dotopdown (or doreverse, name it as you like):
user=> (defmacro dotopdown [& body] `(do ~@(reverse body))) #'user/dotopdown user=> (dotopdown (defn abstract [a] (helper a)) (defn helper [a] (str a))) #'user/abstract user=> (abstract 30) "30" ;) 2011/2/9 jkrueger <jan.krue...@gmail.com> > When writing a Clojure namespace very often I would like to sort my > functions according to level of abstraction, starting with the most > abstract functions, followed by helper functions to the more abstract > functions, and so on.
