Programming Clojure, Third Edition: misplaced docstring in code sample (page 247)
Hi, I noticed that the docstrings for the start and stop functions appear after the function arguments, like:
(defn start [e] "REPL helper. Start pinger on executor e."
Are the docstrings intended to go before the function arguments? Like:
(defn start "REPL helper. Start pinger on executor e." [e]
Marked As Solved
