Question

In C++ I’d write something like this:

if (a == something && b == anotherthing) {    foo(); } 

Am I correct in thinking the Clojure equivalent is something like this:

(if (= a something)     (if (= b anotherthing)         (foo))) 

Or is there another way to perform a logical ‘and’ that I’ve missed? As I said the latter form seems to work correctly–I was just wondering if there’s some simpler way to perform the logical and. And searching for ‘boolean’ ‘logical’ and ‘and’ on the Clojure Google Group turned up too many results to be much use.

In Common Lisp and Scheme

(and (= a something) (= b another) (foo))
