Hello everybody, When I used to program in Scheme, I found very usefull the second-order "apply" function, and during the several years I am programming with NetLogo I miss it time to time. If you don't remember it, the functioning of apply is:
apply f [a1 ... an] = f a1 ... an It's very uncomfortable, in order to apply an n-ary report to a list of values, having to extract the values one by one using the item function: f (item 0 a) ... (item (n-1) a), and I think that the name of apply will make easier to read the code . One example usage comes when you want to extract-rgb color to a list, then modifying this list, and finally approximate-rgb again from the list (but there are more cases of usage, of course). Maybe it can be implemented in an extension, but I think that it must be in the same section of map, reduce, etc...
