We just encountered something that seemed kind of odd, so I wanted to pass it by the list to see if it could be a possible feature.
In Benchee we want to accept either a module or a function as an argument to a function. We'll have different behavior depending on the type there (since we're expecting any module passed in to implement a certain behaviour). However, there's no check for `is_module`. We were thinking of using `is_atom` (see here: https://github.com/PragTob/benchee/pull/148/files#diff-e8ef07ff6be58cfaaaf6f03420fc53e7R75), but that seems sort of confusing to me. I know technically modules are atoms, but would it be possible to have an `is_module` function that can be used in guard clauses and elsewhere that would more accurately convey the sort of thing we're trying to do? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
