2 of them are forms of brevity. To me the whole picture is important. And the context as well.
Individual aspect becomes more important when it feels to be an outlier. I.e. In 1 line one can create a dictionary, initialise it with reasonable keys and 2-values tuples and find the key of the maximum of tuple sums… Elegantly. But one needs 3 lines of code to resolve default value. This is an exaggeration, but serves to convey my point. But again, this is not about this individual case. This thread has started from new dict.get method, and not by me. I am just trying to see what is the common factor as similar problems have been bothering me too. To me by now, it is about custom user expressions. —Nothing ever dies, just enters the state of deferred evaluation— Dg > On 24 Jul 2023, at 18:17, Chris Angelico <ros...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On Tue, 25 Jul 2023 at 01:03, Dom Grigonis <dom.grigo...@gmail.com> wrote: >> I think what would be nice to have is a set of dimensions that are deemed to >> be of importance when deciding on a language constructs. >> plot(dim1, dim2, dim3) >> dim1 - number of lines >> dim2 - number of terms >> dim3 - number of operations >> dim4 - frequency of usage >> dim5 - ... >> > > Don't think I fully understand, but aren't three out of those four > just different forms of brevity?
