Getting Clojure: bad reference in alphabetical index (page 255)
In the second entry in the alphabetic index, on page 255, it appears:
# symbol, function literals,
69, 121
On page 121 there is no reference to function literals. What there is really is a reference to a regular expression literal:
(def re #"Pride and Prejudice.*")
I suggest you add individual entries for each specific use of #
.
For example, in the fourth entry, about %
, only the post conditions are mentioned, but I think the index should contain a reference to %
as part of the parameters of a lambda (%1
, %2
, …, %11
, …), or as an alias of %1
in a lambda. (page 70).
