API for generic.arithmetic - clojure-contrib v1.3 (in development)

Overview

Generic arithmetic interface
This library defines generic versions of + - * / as multimethods
that can be defined for any type. The minimal required 
implementations for a type are binary + and * plus unary - and /.
Everything else is derived from these automatically. Explicit
binary definitions for - and / can be provided for
efficiency reasons.

Public Variables and Functions

Usage: (defmethod* ns name & args)

Define a method implementation for the multimethod name in namespace ns.
Required for implementing the division function from another namespace.

Usage: (qsym ns sym)

Create the qualified symbol corresponding to sym in namespace ns.
Required to access the division function from another namespace,
e.g. as (qsym clojure.contrib.generic.arithmetic /).
