Strings can be treated as a sequence of chars

e.g. to sort the characters in a string alphabetically:

(sort "hello")
=> (\e \h \l \l \o)

Strings are by definition a sequence of chars in almost every language, but you can't apply this trick in all of them :-) – mellamokb Jun 12 '11 at 21:44

Or rather, "sequence" has a special meaning in Clojure than means you can apply extra tricks ::-) – mikera Jun 13 '11 at 11:24
