Hi Vasco!
Thanks for sharing your opinion, I appreciate that. Actually I had also
considered the same thing but it seems that I'll *HAVE* to use the general
method for combinations else I won't get good results for combinations.
I might be wrong but that's what I believe and Daniel also pointed in that
direction. Now considering this fact and the fact that the general method
would provide a better interface than primitive specific ones, I got caught
up in a dilemma.
So I wanted to discuss with Daniel before I decide.
Anyways, I'm glad to have your opinion. I'll keep that in mind. Thanks! :D
