I`m working with MAL that is supposed to be a Clojure clone.
I`m surprised to see the following.
Almost nothing is consider false in the second position
in the `if construct, however asking for a truth value explicitly
by `true? is different. (Naively I borrowed the code for if,
routinely isolated in a separate function, and used this for `true? ).
Testing failed, thus I checked with the Clojure installed on my system.
"
Clojure 1.10.1
user=> (true? true)
true
user=> (if true? 1 2)
1
user=> (true? true?)
false
"
Is there a reason for this?
