Re: Benefits to partial functions.

It's been a long time since I looked at this, but as of a few years ago, the biggest noticeable performance detriment of comp or partial was likely to come if you pass enough args to hit a "& args" overload, which requires creating a fresh object array at each call, when the underlying function

Thank you, Marc! I will try to use your example to develop more general "instance" function. Sincerely, Ru воскресенье, 20 октября 2019 г., 15:35:48 UTC+3 пользователь mlimotte написал: > > Hey Ru, > > I'd also add that `new` is a special form, not a function. It is > evaluated at
