Calling with other argument types invokes behavior that is not currently documented. That may be intentional to allow the behavior to change in the future, or it may be an oversight in which case the docs could be improved to document the intended behavior for more argument types. Regarding the current implementation, there is code to handle the case of calling unchecked-add with two Long arguments. In that case, unchecked_add behaves the same way as + does and throws the overflow exception. --Steve -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
