Found bug in contains? used with vectors.

2012-09-03 Thread Goldritter 
I use Clojure 1.4.0 and wanted to use 'contains?' on a vector and get 
following results:

=> (contains? [1 2 3] 3)
false
=> (contains? [1 2 3] 2)
true

As it seems 'contains?' does not check for the last entry in the vector.

And an other question.
Why does contains? returns everytime 'false' when used on a list?
=> (contains? (list 1 2 3) 1)
false
=> (contains? (list 1 2 3) 2)
false
=> (contains? (list 1 2 3) 3)
false

'contains?' tests if a key is in a collection.

Vector is an associative data structure, with keys being indexes.
A vector of length 3 has the key 2, but not key 3.

Ah ok. So I need to transform a vector and/or a list into a set first.

No, not really.  All clojure collections implement java.util.Collection,
so you can always use

  (.contains your-coll something)

to check if your-coll contains something.  However, keep in mind that
this does a linear search for lists, sequences or vectors.  So if your
algorithm relies on containment checks, you might be better off using
sets directly.

You could try the function some.

=> (some #{3} [1 2 3])
3
=> (some #{3} [1 2 5])
nil

This uses a set as a predicate function.

As for contains? behavior on lists, it is fixed 
(CLJ-932)
 
in Clojure 1.5, some 17 days ago:

=> (contains? '(1 2 3) 2); 
IllegalArgumentException contains? not supported on type: 
clojure.lang.PersistentList ...

I wonder if get is also going to be fixed?

=> (get [1 2 3] 2)
3
=> (get '(1 2 3) 2)

I think this is not a bad idea. ;)
At all, a method/function name should describe what it does. And if 
'contains?' only looks for keys, then 'contains-key?' would be a better 
descriptor for it.

Re: Found bug in contains? used with vectors.

2012-09-04 Thread Marcus Lindner 
I wanted to use it to select a random element in a collection (set, 
vector or list) where I can define elements which should not be selected.

The function I now use is:

(defn select-random [collection & unselect]
  "(select-random collection & unselect) selects a random element from 
the specified 'collection'.
It will ignore any element which is specified in 'unselect'. If none 
elements are specified in 'unselect',

then any element from the specified 'collection' may be chosen. "
  ( let [predicate #(contains? (set unselect) %1)]
  (rand-nth (remove predicate collection

Eventually this can be optimized for better reading and/or performance.
It might be also a good idea to add some preconditions to it like
{pre: [(coll? collection)] }.

The naming of contains? is one of Clojure's small warts. Almost
everyone seems to stumble over it when they're starting out. I know I
did. Naming it contains-key? would have prevented a great deal of
confusion, but I guess that ship has sailed... *shrug*
