Convert a Java array into a Clojure list or sequence?

Question

How do I convert a Java array into a Clojure sequence data structure, such as a list, or other sequence?

This question shows how to do the inverse; The Clojure docs show how to create, mutate, and read arrays; but is there a built-in way to convert them to lists, or some other Clojure-native sequence?

Answer 1

Yes, there is a way to convert an array to a list! The code (seq java-array-here) will convert the array into an ArraySeq , which implements ISeq , and thus can be treated like any other Clojure sequence .
