Hello Folks,
I'm a noob to both programming (1 year part-time) and to Clojure (1
week).
I am unclear on how I can call an Ifn stored in a map usefully
and I am hoping you can help me.
I have stored data in a few maps (both functions and data):
user=> (def uhoh* (ref {:even

>user=>(def current* (merge (uhoh* :event)(why* :event)))

Firstly, consider using Delays rather than IFn. See (doc delay) and
(doc delay?). In Clojure, many sorts of things are IFns, including
(among others) sets, vectors and maps, and you probably don't want to
call those.
(def uhoh* (ref {:event {:date (delay (java.util.Date.)) :name "EOW"}}))
(def why
Perfect! And Thanks!
