Ep 080: Apply as Needed

Functional Design in Clojure

Each week, we discuss a different topic about Clojure and functional programming.

If you have a question or topic you'd like us to discuss, tweet @clojuredesign, send an email to [e-mail], or join the #clojuredesign-podcast channel on the Clojurians Slack.

This week, the topic is: "apply." We take time to unroll some examples of this function.

Selected quotes:

• "If you go and read the code in core, which I would encourage."
• "And all the rest..."
• "Why is there no third function?"
• "If you're using reduce, you may be missing an opportunity to use apply."
