A more pressing question. How do you pronounce the following:
->
In both case expressions and lambdas I would not read this if it could be
decided by context and vocal dynamics (like the way most people pronounce
parenthesized arithmetic expressions), for cases "is" would work nicely.
For -> in types, "to" works well.
<-
I would read "a <- foo" as "bind a to the value produced by foo"
[]
nil as others have said (and correspondingly, : is cons)
and countless others...
::, "has type" or "is in"
@ reads as "as"
I presume \, as in \a -> x, is pronounced 'lambda'.
yes
