This style surely has a big cool factor, to observe from a
distance. It achieves the goal of using the least space for most
code. But the flip side, even to read such code, seems that a
huge amount of mental energy is just spent to maintain this
unintuitive encoding system: both the vocabulary and restore
the severed familiar spacial syntactic constructs.
I.e. whitespace is mostly meaningful, and here it's
just almost thrown away, the same way as fully spelled out names.
It's not criticism, it's just curiosity, maybe I
am really missing something. What's the secret?
There's got to be a catch.
How is function "sum" used in the example?
