I’m trying to implement something like GridMapper using Clojure. The software appears to be simple to use, and requires a GUI. I know nothing of Clojure, very little Java, and nothing about Swing. A perfect setup to learn the new language. Let’s go! 😄
Some googling showed me the way to Heating Up Clojure & Swing by Stuart Sierra. Unfortunately I still have problems generating a 20 × 20 grid. Because I seem to be incapable of building lists the way I’m used to do it:
(let (result)
(dotimes (x 20)
(setq result (cons x (cons :gridx result)))
(dotimes (y 20)
(setq result (cons '(empty-tile) (cons y (cons :gridy result))))))
(apply 'grid-bag-layout (nreverse result)))
Or is there a simpler solution not using Stuart’s grid-bag-layout?
