Hi,
This is a newb question so apologies in advance if I haven't read
enough Clojure code yet to see the answer.
Suppose I need mathematical 2D vector functions:
(ns geometry.vector)
(defstruct vector :x :y)
(defn +
"Add vectors v and w, yielding a vector"
[ v w ]
(...))
Which leads to the core "vector" function being shadowed by my struct
and the core "+" function shadowed by my function. What is the
idiomatic Clojure approach for handling this situation? Is it through
careful use of :require and :import parts of a (ns ...) form?
I've also seen instances of naming changes to avoid the problem, e.g.
(defstruct <vector> ...) and (defn vector+ ...)
but not sure if that's making best use of Clojure namespaces?
Any advice much appreciated,
Stu
