Hi,
I am aware of philosophical differences of Scala and Clojure
but functional programming should be a pretty common ground :)
Thus I need help, I am trying to mimic Scala's for comprehension in Clojure.
Hopefully someone will be able to aid me with the following (perhaps more
familiar with Scala):
Scala for comprehension is errr how to say "de-sugared" to series
of map and flatMap calls... thus, it is possible to use plain functions in
for-comprehension
like:
*val *ns: Conv[List[Int]] = *for *{ // Conv is just alias for functions of
type B => (B, A)
x <- int // int is function again of type Conv
y <- int
xs <- ints(x) // this is just sequence of numbers
} *yield *xs.map(_ * y)
I don't need all the nuts and bolts, just some guideline for achieving
something similar
in Clojure.
I am not lazy :) I've already eagerly researched a bit and got to this: Scala
for-comprehension to Clojure
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25655132/how-to-convert-this-map-flatmap-into-a-for-comprehension-in-clojure>
But as you can see that is not really about having kind of generator
function which is wrapped into flatMap
call. Perhaps this is not in Clojure's spirit at all, perhaps there is some
Clojure idiom to achieve something similar.
Any tip, suggestion, critic is welcome and appreciated.
If someone is wondering how in the world I came up to this, I am doing some
f-p exercises which I've got Scala solution for
however I am not very interested in Scala and I am doing Clojure so I just
need to grasp concepts...
Thanks in advance...
