| In your tutorial you defined the isa function as such: (def isa (x y)
(is (type x) y))
I was thinking in the case of checking a lot of parameters for type (like form post vars or something), and it would be nice if I could do this all in one line. So I am proposing an alternate definition: (def isa (x . ys)
(all [is x (type _)] ys))
And you would call it like: (isa string "this will be" "and this" "this too" 'notthis)
At least I think that would work. Honestly haven't tried it, as I am on my lunch break, but I think it would work. It does change the ordering of parameters so the type is first and the values to check are the rest, but I think this reads more like english when you call it.(As an aside: It a measure of what you have created that I can look at the tutorial once on my lunch break and already feel like I can use the idioms. I look forward to hacking on this tonight.) |
