In this guide, we will discuss Clojure Accessing Individual Fields. Individual fields of the structure can be accessed by accessing the keys along with the structure object.

Syntax

Following is the syntax.

:key structure-name

Parameters − ‘key’ is the keyvalue in the structure. ‘structure-name’ is the structure which is the respective key.

Return Value − The value associated with the key will be returned. An example on how this is used is shown in the following program.

Example

(ns clojure.examples.example
   (:gen-class))
(defn Example []
   (defstruct Employee :EmployeeName :Employeeid)
   (def emp (struct-map Employee :EmployeeName "John" :Employeeid 1))
   (println (:Employeeid emp))
   (println (:EmployeeName emp)))
(Example)

Output

The above program produces the following output.

1
John
