clojure
Hi, everyone, I've started working yesterday on the Euler Project in Clojure and I have a problem with one of my solutions I cannot figure out.
I have this function:
(defn find-max-palindrom-in-range [beg end]
(reduce max
(loop [n beg result []]
(if (>= n end)
result
(recur (inc n)
(concat result
(filter #(is-palindrom? %)
(map #(* n %) (range beg end)))))))))
I try to run it like this:
(find-max-palindrom-in-range 100 1000)
and I get this exception:
java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to clojure.lang.IFn
[Thrown class java.lang.ClassCastException]
which I presume means that at some place I'm trying to evaluate an Integer as a function. I however cannot find this place and what puzzles me more is that everything works if I simply evaluate it like this:
(reduce max
(loop [n 100 result []]
(if (>= n 1000)
result
(recur (inc n)
(concat result
(filter #(is-palindrom? %)
(map #(* n %) (range 100 1000))))))))
(I've just stripped down the function definition and replaced the parameters with constants)
Thanks in advance for your help and sorry that I probably bother you with idiotic mistake on my part. Btw I'm using Clojure 1.1 and the newest SLIME from ELPA.
