Also, for the sake of spamming of group (^_^), I find that many of the times I've elected to use `#` to define a truly anonymous function, as in a function that isn't building on something else, per se, but is just being used in the local context to do something specific, I almost always end up pulling it out later at least into a let-fn form if not into a top level form. It's a little like leaving the `{}` off of a one line if statement. It saves a little typing, but over the long haul it almost always seems to come back to bite you. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
