Earlier versions of the haskell standard originally named fmap map. It was only as of haskell 1.4 or so that what was then map got renamed to map I think the only technical objection is making sure that theres no performance regressions wrt applicable fusion opportunities. Subject to that, hearty plus one to fmap reclaiming map :)
Although I would prefer the far more radical (and thus far more unlikely to ever happen) approach of actually renaming 'fmap' to 'map'.
I'd vote for that too. _______________________________________________ Libraries mailing list Libraries@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libraries
