(this is not a question about recur) Suppose I have:
(defn v1 ([x] (v1 x [])) ([x r] (conj r x))) and I decide to make v2 - for whatever reason - say I think I have a better implementation for part of it so I start with a copy and edit: (defn v2 ([x] (v1 x [])) ([x r] (conj r (inc x)))) I sometimes find that I forget to update v1 to v2 (as above). This less visible in more complex functions. So questions: 1. would it be, or is it possible to have something generic like this? (defn v1 ([x] (*call-self* x [])) ([x r] (conj r x))) where call-self is some suitable generic pseudonym for calling the enclosing function in this case v1. in this case, v2: (defn v2 ([x] (*call-self* x [])) ([x r] (conj r (inc x))) 2. What about anonymous fns? (fn ([x] (call-self x 0)) ([x y] ...))) Thanks Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
