Re: [Factor-talk] subseq?

[Alexander Ilin]

I found only one place in my code where I have used `subseq?`, and even there it was `swap subseq?`.

Hi,
How close is the next release ? I saw Slava's taunt on github https://github.com/factor/factor/issues/1783 :)

Maybe revert it for 0.98 and go with this for 0.99 ? Code will break silently on this since the number of arguments is the same.

Thanks for the heads-up, John -

 

I would agree that your changes are a more natural locution. I use these words a lot

in various vocabs, but I reckon it won't be too hard to adapt to this new pattern.

Hi,

 

I pushed a (breaking compatibility) change to the development branch of Factor that swaps the arguments for ``start``, ``start*``, and ``subseq?``.

 

Instead of:

 

    ( subseq seq -- ? )

 

it is now:

 

    ( seq subseq -- ? )

 

It is more natural this way, and most places it was used did some form of ``swap subseq?``, but it does create a backwards compatibility problem in a relatively common word.

 

Please let me know if this is a problem for anyone.

 

Thanks,

John.
