Idiomatic Clojure for iterating all items of a map

Hi, For a data structure such as: (def langs {:langs [ {:lang Clojure :version 1.6} {:lang Erlang :version 17} ] } ) How to iterate all the items of the maps? I tried this but it is too imperative to me: (doseq [lang (:langs langs) (doseq [k (keys lang)]

That doseq is a no-op, because str has no side effects and doseq always returns nil. Also there is no need to nest doseq calls. for is much like doseq except it actually returns the result. user (for [lang (:langs langs) k (keys lang)] (str k(k lang))) (:lang

small correction: sometimes one does need to nest a for or doseq call, but not for the usual nested iteration case On Monday, April 21, 2014 8:57:49 AM UTC-7, Justin Smith wrote: That doseq is a no-op, because str has no side effects and doseq always returns nil. Also there is no need to
