http://axiom-portal.newsynthesis.org/refs/articles/Davenport-1984-a_new_algebra_system.pdf [...] | Finally, another question: why do think that my optimization proposal (inlining | functions in domains) would depend on operations in A add B being chosen from A | instead of B? | As I said earlier, I have come to have a more fundamental issue with this. *If* the desired semantics is the current behaviour (I do not take the position is that it is `God given'), then there is not discussion about the transformation. *If* the semantics is not desired, then there is no discussion about the transformation either. -- Gaby ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
