Hi I wrote a function to transform a variable number of arguments into embedded maps. Here is what it does:
> (enmap 1 2) {1 2} > (enmap 1 2 3) {1 {2 3}} > (enmap 1 2 3 4) {1 {2 {3 4}}} > (enmap 1 2 3 4 {5 6 7 8}) {1 {2 {3 {4 {5 6, 7 8}}}}} Here is my implementation: (defn enmap [arg & args] (if-let [more (butlast args)] (let [k (last more), v (last args)] (if-let [even-more (butlast more)] (apply enmap arg (concat even-more (list (hash-map k v)))) (enmap arg (hash-map k v)))) (apply hash-map arg args))) Two things bother me: - Is there a way to make this function less complicated? without recursion maybe? - Is there something simpler than (concat even-more (list (hash-map k v)) to append an element at the end of a sequence?
