Tree traversal primitives (clojure.walk):

    (defn walk [inner outer form]
      (cond
       (list? form) (outer (with-meta (apply list (map inner form)) (meta form)))
       (instance? clojure.lang.IMapEntry form)
       (outer (clojure.lang.MapEntry/create (inner (key form)) (inner (val form))))
       (seq? form) (outer (with-meta (doall (map inner form)) (meta form)))
       (instance? clojure.lang.IRecord form)
         (outer (reduce (fn [r x] (conj r (inner x))) form form))
       (coll? form) (outer (into (empty form) (map inner form)))
       :else (outer form)))
    
    (defn postwalk [f form]
      (walk (partial postwalk f) f form))
    
    (defn prewalk [f form]
      (walk (partial prewalk f) identity (f form)))

Another reason why this perlisism holds:

    9. It is better to have 100 functions operate on one data structure than 10 functions on 10 data structures.
