<title>how to check whether an object is of a certain type</title>
<link>https://ask.clojure.org/index.php/9205/how-to-check-whether-an-object-is-of-a-certain-type</link>
<description>&lt;p&gt;Looking at the documentation for &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;https://clojuredocs.org/clojure.core/type&quot;&gt;type&lt;/a&gt; I see how to find a type of an object.  And in the see-also section it talks about the function &lt;code&gt;instance?&lt;/code&gt; which tests whether an object is a member of a designated class.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Is the documentation using the word class and type interchangeably here?&lt;br&gt;
What is the correct way to check type membership, assuming I have a type designator compatible with &lt;code&gt;isa?&lt;/code&gt; ?&lt;/p&gt;
