remove ls:report? #126

Closed arthurhjorth closed 6 years ago

arthurhjorth commented 6 years ago

The only benefit to ls:report over ls:of is that it is a pre-fix reporter, thus allowing for the injection of arguments. Given that ls:let makes arguments unnecessary, and given that ls:report is not NetLogo'y, should it be retired?

It's worth thinking about. I still use it for one-liners and it's slightly faster, but ya, definitely redundant...

Oh, actually the place it's slightly less redundant is, for instance:

let foo map [ i -> (ls:report my-model [ j -> do-stuff j ] i) ] range 10

Here, you can't use ls:let because map requires a reporter block. Alas, the age-old no-lets-in-reporters problem.

That answers that - we'll keep it. :)
