@kopasetik: also http://adventofcode.com is currently running!

I've got this class thing

(ns bf-helper.alexa.speechlet
  (:require [clojure.tools.logging :as log]
            [bf-helper.alexa.router :as r])
  (:import (com.amazon.speech.ui PlainTextOutputSpeech Reprompt)
           (com.amazon.speech.speechlet SpeechletResponse))
  (:gen-class
   :main false
   :implements [com.amazon.speech.speechlet.Speechlet]
   :prefix "speechlet-"
   :init "init"))

Ruby likes underscore_case, Python likes snake_case (same thing, heh), JS likes camelCase, Clojure likes…???

What are the proper Clojure naming conventions?

Clojure and most Lisps use hyphens. I don’t know the official term for it, but I often see it referred to as “kebab-case"

@solicode: Cool, thanks!

@kopasetik: “lisp-case” seems to be quite common too. I personally like kebab though.

Hee hee

OK, trying to make this anonymous function work: (#(* (str "this " % " is awesome!")) "function”)

Rather, (#((str "this " % " is awesome!")) "function")

Still not working

OK figured it out: extra pair of parentheses

@polymeris: I feel like there’s a func for that...

oh sorry, was looking at an old post. you got it.

@kopasetik: you have some parens that you could remove there

for example

Thanks for the message.

maybe this is what you meant, though

(#(str "this " % " is awesome!") "function”)

I’m not aware of your context, but you could just replace % with “function”

(str "this " "function" " is awesome!”)

I figured it out earlier. Thanks though!
