I think it does more harm to redefine existing functions like `take` and `drop` which exist in other languages. Instead, it always seems better to introduce new names or reuse existing ones.
Elm does seem to have an issue with not only an ultra-conservative standard library but also an inconsistent one, like the lack of `List.singleton`. If the standard library sponged up the most uncontroversial low-hanging fruit from the *.Extra libraries, it'd be a nice quality of life improvement for all. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
