Re: SRSLY? (= (true? identity) (false? identity)) => true

What might confuse you, is why Clojure even have true? and false? functions? Its because conditional constructs like if, cond, when, test for truthy (aka logical true) and falsey (aka logical false), not true and false. Nil and False are falsey, and everything else is truthy. Most of the time

(= 1 10) => false (= 2 10) => false (= 10 10) => true (= false false) => true (= (= 1 10) (= 2 10)) => true class BoolTest { public static void main(String args[]) { System.out.println(Boolean.TRUE.equals(System.class) == Boolean.FALSE.equals(System.class)); // prints "true",

Re: SRSLY? (= (true? identity) (false? identity)) => true

By design, true? never throws an exception. Neither does false? You can create functions similar to those that throw an exception when given a non-boolean value, if you want such functions. (Note: examples below rely on existence of clojure.core/boolean? which does not exist in Clojure 1.8.0)

Re: SRSLY? (= (true? identity) (false? identity)) => true

Think about what you're asking: "Hey, is identity a boolean true value?" "No, it is a function, not a boolean" "Is, identity a boolean false value?" "No, it's a function, not a boolean" Makes plenty sense to me. On Fri, Sep 1, 2017 at 10:06 PM, Rostislav Svoboda <

Re: SRSLY? (= (true? identity) (false? identity)) => true

You seem to be confused about what true? and false? are intended to do. +user=> (doc true?) - clojure.core/true? ([x]) Returns true if x is the value true, false otherwise. nil +user=> (doc false?) - clojure.core/false? ([x]) Returns true if x

Due to the new dependence on external jars, these instructions will be different in Clojure 1.9. We will be providing additional tooling to make this easier but that's still a work in progress. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group. To
