clojure Clojure destructuring Destructuring and giving a name to the original argument value
Example
(defn print-some-items
[[a b :as xs]]
(println a)
(println b)
(println xs))
(print-some-items [2 3])
This example prints the output
2
3
[2 3]
The argument is destructured and the items 2 and 3 are assigned to the symbols a and b. The original argument, the entire vector [2 3], is also assigned to the symbol xs.
