Yes that is probably the most elegant way of defining the term. Afterwards, one can go on and describe how primitives work. > - If instance factory B inherits from instance factory A, is B a subclass of > A? B a subtype of A?

A.prototype is a prototype of B. prototype (ugh). -- Dr. Axel Rauschmayer [email protected] home: rauschma.de twitter: twitter.com/rauschma blog: 2ality.com
