Hello,
Consider the following problem:
(def v [1 2 3])
(def l '(4 5 6))
; we need to apply in sequence
; `v <- (func v e)`,
; where `e` goes over elements of the list `l`
(def new-v (apply-from-list func v l))
For example, if `(def func conj)`, then the value of `new-v` is `[1 2 3 4 5
6]`. Is there some function (or a simple combination of functions) from the
standard library that does that? It seems to me that it could be done with
something like `->`, but a function, not a macro. At the moment I have the
following ugly implementation:
(defn apply-from-list
[init-res func init-l]
(if (empty? init-l)
init-res
(loop [res init-res
l init-l]
(let [first-elem (first l)
rest-elems (rest l)
res (func res first-elem)]
(if (empty? rest-elems)
res
(recur res rest-elems))))))
