Question

I’m reading file into a byte array, however the byte array has some trailing 0s which I would like to remove (return new byte array without the 0s). But byte array is not a listish thing so I cannot use filter/remove/map on it.

Is the only solution to use recursion over the byte array?

Thanks!

You should be able to use sequence operations on byte arrays:

(byte-array (take-while pos? (.getBytes (slurp "some/binary/file.dat"))))
