In principle you're right. But you have to keep in mind, that type hints actually alter runtime behavior.
A hinted call tries to cast its argument into the desired type, possibly resulting in a type cast exception. An unhinted call, on the other hand, just looks for the signature. So in essence a hinted call can fail for cases where an unhinted call succeeds, effectively reducing composability at a type level (polymorphism). kind regards -- __________________________________________________________________ Herwig Hochleitner -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
