Hi

I wrote the following function to create a SQL IN clause from a list
of values. Essentially the function creates a single string which is a
comma separated quoted list of the values surrounded by parenthesis.

user=> (def xs [1 2 3 4 5])

user=>(str "('" (first xs) (reduce #(str %1 "', '" %2) "" (rest xs))
"')")
"('1', '2', '3', '4', '5')"

user=> (def xs ["ab" "cd" "ef" "gh"])

user=> (str "('" (first xs) (reduce #(str %1 "', '" %2) "" (rest xs))
"')")
"('ab', 'cd', 'ef', 'gh')"

I am wondering if there is a better/easier/more elegant way to write
this function. Or if I can make use of a more suitable function from
the clojure core library to achieve this?

Thanks
Shoeb
