a-b desugars to aB instead of a - b #238

Closed markussieber closed 10 years ago

markussieber commented 10 years ago

are you serious about this?

in my opinion a-b should be a - b. Which other language translates this to aB like current coco?!

what exactly is your reason for allowing is-array when the underlying function is isArray? the developer should write isArray and nothing else...

137. Other languages have spinal-cased identifiers (like lisp, perl 6, etc)

@markussieber: Wow, that's a very authoritarian take on programming language design you have there.

vendethiel commented 10 years ago

Don't feed the troll :p

satyr commented 10 years ago

(like lisp, perl 6, etc)

True that it's less of a trap in these languages, e.g.: (- a b) $a-$b

i dont want to troll, sorry if my complaints looked like it. I see in #137 that you already discussed this feature. I am against it, but that should not matter :) thanks for coco except this matter i really like the language.
