or some such. I wish I could think of a better example without too much context, but such a thing escapes me for the moment. In general, I think it's good to collocate on the left as much as possible of a function's scrutineering. Stringing out ifs and cases makes it harder to see what's going on.
i like this. for me, left part of function definition is a half of logical programming language, it only omits two-direction pattern-matching mechanism -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
