# Switching to Text by default makes us embarrassed!
Text processing /is/ quick to embarrassment :-)
Problem: we want to write beautiful (and possibly inefficient) code that is easy to explain. If nothing else, this is pedagologically important. The goals of this code are to: * use list processing pattern matching and functions on a string type
I may have missed this question so I will ask it (apologies if it is a repeat): Why is it believed that list processing pattern matching is appropriate or the right tool for text processing? -- Gaby
