I don't disagree with your preference for symmetry. I just pointed out that if one considers processing order on the input (only), there is no basis to say that Elm's foldl is wrong or not left-to-right. That one should consider both input and output order/nesting when pondering the name of this function seems not to have been a principle of the maker of that decision. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
