Yes. (filter even? [some-numbers]) will produce the even numbers from some-numbers and skip the odd ones; (take-while even? [some-numbers]) will produce the even numbers from some-numbers until the first odd number, and then stop. Even numbers after the first odd number won't be produced, and unless something is badly broken it will not grind away forever even if [some-numbers] is replaced by an infinite seq, as long as it isn't an infinite seq of only even numbers. -- Protege: What is this seething mass of parentheses?!
