Re: [RFC] Pipe Operator

Hi! > "|>" is just a building block for simpler coding. It could be used badly, but > it helps a lot. Procedural code could be much simpler and readable with "|>". I don't see how it helps anything. It just replaces clear variable names with cryptic sequences of characters with no intuitive meaning and magic semantics invented solely to save a few keystrokes. Moreover, it would only in one sole use case where functions always return a value that is immediately passed to the next one and is sole argument for it, and never produce errors or require any logic beyond calling them in a sequence on one value. > "|>" version is much easier to read and write. Quite the opposite. It has completely unobvious syntax (what is $$? What is the value of $$? how I see this value if I need to debug this code?) and does not allow to do anything but making code more cryptic. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
