If the language allows passing lists of functions, then `comp` can be implemented by hand: https://clojuredocs.org/clojure.core/comp https://clojuredocs.org/clojure.core/comp And re-implementing `comp` by hand can teach us more than we bargained for (all the way to compiler technology)... I blogged about it here: https://www.evalapply.org/posts/lessons-from-reimplementing-clojure-comp-function/ https://www.evalapply.org/posts/lessons-from-reimplementing-... ;; Clojure source code for `comp` (since Clojure v1.0) (defn comp "Takes a set of functions and returns a fn that is the composition of those fns. The returned fn takes a variable number of args, applies the rightmost of fns to the args, the next fn (right-to-left) to the result, etc." {:added "1.0" :static true} ([] identity) ([f] f) ([f g] (fn ([] (f (g))) ([x] (f (g x))) ([x y] (f (g x y))) ([x y z] (f (g x y z))) ([x y z & args] (f (apply g x y z args))))) ([f g & fs] (reduce1 comp (list* f g fs))))
