if you think about it, that's the only behaviour that makes sence as you could do `(when-let [{:keys [a b]} c] ..)`
2017-12-29T12:21:29.000193
Kareen

clojure
and in this case it would make no sense to test on `a` or `b`
2017-12-29T12:21:44.000090
Kareen
clojurians
clojure
just because you are looking for a single nil?
2017-12-29T12:22:14.000017
Venessa
clojurians
clojure
because when-let/if-let don't have semantics for multiple bindings
2017-12-29T12:22:32.000171
Kareen
clojurians
clojure
i.e. you can't `(when-let [a b c d])`
2017-12-29T12:22:41.000006
Kareen

clojure
right — you would have to supply some predicate

how do you `require` in an eval? ie: `clj -e "(require '[clojure.pprint :as pprint]) (pprint '(+ 1 1))"`
2017-12-29T14:52:08.000012
Bernice

I'm getting this: ``` Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to resolve symbol: pprint in this context ```
2017-12-29T14:56:00.000144
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
well you would need `"(require '[clojure.pprint :refer [pprint]]) (pprint '(+ 1 1))"`
2017-12-29T14:56:46.000154
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
```$ clj -e "(require '[clojure.pprint :refer [pprint]]) (pprint '(+ 1 1))" (+ 1 1)```
2017-12-29T14:57:13.000165

ah, that works!
2017-12-29T14:57:25.000091

now, how could I get it to work if I put it in a single file?
2017-12-29T14:57:56.000018
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
that's where I get the RuntimeException: clojure ...
2017-12-29T14:58:05.000156
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
the way I usually do it is `(require '[clojure.pprint :as pprint :refer [pprint]))`
2017-12-29T14:58:06.000214
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
if you put what in a single file? and what’s the full RuntimeException?

clojure
everything that works in a repl will work in a file - the rules are the same (though there are a couple of things that work in a file that are no-ops in a repl but they aren’t relevant here)

ah, ok -- it's working now

2017-12-29T15:00:35.000351
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
why do you use `as` and `refer`?
2017-12-29T15:00:49.000253
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
:as means that I can use eg. `pprint/print-table` instead of `clojure.pprint/print-table` and :refer means that I can use `pprint` instead of `pprint/pprint`
2017-12-29T15:01:27.000074
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
the doc for :as is under `(doc alias)`, the doc for :refer is under `(doc refer)`

2017-12-29T15:08:38.000165
Bernice

clojure
you could pass a StringWriter or use `with-out-str`, then trim the resulting string (hacky, but simpler than any other option I can think of here)

2017-12-29T15:16:30.000036
Bernice

clojure
right, without a newline you need to use `(flush)` to force output
2017-12-29T15:17:50.000156
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
the vm will-auto-flush on newline but without that you need to flush by hand
2017-12-29T15:18:04.000207
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
(and of course just making a string won’t make anything print to the console when running a program - in the ones not using print)
2017-12-29T15:18:57.000144
Margaret

clojure
`something.clj` ``` (require '[clojure.pprint :as pprint :refer [pprint]]) (let [sw (java.io.StringWriter.)] (pprint '(+ 1 1) sw) (flush)) ``` `clj something.clj` returns nothing
2017-12-29T15:19:59.000078
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
right, pprint with sw as an arg returns a string
2017-12-29T15:20:41.000117
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
you need to use print
2017-12-29T15:20:44.000049
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
well, it puts something in sw, you need to call str to get a string out of sw
2017-12-29T15:21:01.000003
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
then you need to print that string
2017-12-29T15:21:07.000042
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
the extra arg to pprint is a writer, it overrides `*out*` as the place to put the output - and you need to use clojure.string/trim on the resulting string to remove the newline (as in my example above)
2017-12-29T15:21:55.000209
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
hrmm ... and it looks like I'm back to where I was without the `sw`
2017-12-29T15:24:02.000053
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
you need sw in order to trim the string - but I showed everything you need in my example
2017-12-29T15:24:20.000184
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
``` clj something.clj "(ns guestbook.db\n (:require\n ... ```
2017-12-29T15:24:25.000101
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
here's my `something.clj` now: ``` (require '[clojure.pprint :as pprint :refer [pprint]]) (let [sw (java.io.StringWriter.)] (pprint (slurp "./db.cljs") sw) (print (clojure.string/trim (str sw))) (flush)) ```
2017-12-29T15:25:10.000170
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
that should do what you want
2017-12-29T15:25:32.000039
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
(you might need to require clojure.string)
2017-12-29T15:25:48.000085
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
but it's resulting in the same output as ``` (require '[clojure.pprint :as pprint :refer [pprint]]) (pprint (slurp "./db.cljs") ```
2017-12-29T15:26:09.000073
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
well slurp returns a string - pprint of a string just adds “” and otherwise acts like println
2017-12-29T15:26:41.000031
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
err… it also prints \n instead of real newlines inside the string etc.
2017-12-29T15:27:04.000080
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
so maybe it's slurp that's messin' me up :confused:

2017-12-29T15:30:13.000095
Bernice
clojurians
clojure
yeah - you can use cljfmt without the lein stuff - looks like a straightforward ns to use <https://github.com/weavejester/cljfmt/blob/master/cljfmt/src/cljfmt/core.cljc>
2017-12-29T15:30:38.000268

:laughing: `slurp` messes me up there too
2017-12-29T15:35:23.000264

same output as `pprint`
2017-12-29T15:35:31.000081

cljfmt has functions for forms and for strings though
2017-12-29T15:35:45.000067
Margaret
clojurians

and you can use `clojure.edn/read-string` to get forms out of a string (or attempt it at least)

that let block is pointless - just put the forms in the hash-map

2017-12-29T15:48:35.000007
Berry

clojure
oh, if that’s the only part of the order that matters, yeah
2017-12-29T15:49:00.000027
Margaret

clojure
but the assoc is nicer imho and does the same thing
2017-12-29T15:49:20.000144
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
(and also guarantees evaluation order)
2017-12-29T15:49:30.000080
Margaret

I guess it comes down to whether the extra {} are an improvement or background noise
2017-12-29T15:50:20.000041
Margaret
clojurians
clojure
you know, what, I'm going to use assoc, just in case the ordering is stricter than I think it is, - in which case mine may cause a non deterministic bug

usage of assoc with many keys in one call us under-appreciated IMHO :smile:
2017-12-29T15:50:56.000046

to make it all "uniform", I'm going with: ``` (assoc {} ::cudnn-h (doto (cudnn-handle) (cudnn-create)) ::cublas-h (doto (cublas-handle) (cublas-create)) ::src-tensor-d (cudnn-tensor-d) ::dst-tensor-d (cudnn-tensor-d) ::bias-tensor-d (cudnn-tensor-d) ::filter-d (cudnn-filter-d) ::conv-d (cudnn-conv-d) ::pooling-d (cudnn-pooling-d) ::norm-d (cudnn-lrn-d)) ``` the only slight problem is that cider indent doesn't auto indent the assoc k v pairs for me

FWIW, git has some affordance for ignoring whitespace changes—see the `-b` and `-w` options to `git diff`, for example. (GitHub and GitLab have the same feature in diff view, although it's not always obvious how to toggle it.) That's not meant to disagree about alignment though.

Not excessively hard to implement... syntax would be `:req [int? ::foo ::bar ::baz]` where `int?` means a predicate for the following keyword, `:foo`. Similar to metadata syntax (note that kws aren't IMetas) will give it a shot someday

has anyone used refs and STMs in production code? I’m struggling to sea use case where it is favorable to use over one big atom

Danielle

If it's possible to partition the problem you're trying to solve into several effect scopes (say several queues such that most STM is only between two of N queues), the STM tools Clojure includes can be useful and meaningfully reduce contention between multiple threads.

In general they tend to be rarely used especially in library code because that's a super application-specific property which requires global knowledge of your system and its state update behavior to leverage.
2017-12-30T00:26:07.000066
Charity
clojurians
clojure
It's also easier (makes fewer fragile assumptions) to structure your application as a bunch of computation followed by a big-bang `swap!` using some comparatively cheap state merging function.

Charity

<@Danielle> FWIW, we have 75,000 lines of Clojure and only a small number of atoms and a few agents. We have no refs. I think that out in the real world, STM is rarely used -- but can be very valuable in the (very) few edge cases where it is actually appropriate. So, yeah, what <@Charity> said :slightly_smiling_face:

actually, I can't think of a single situation where I have seem STM used; most concurrency problems seems solvable via: build new data structure, do a pointer swap at the last moment
