Summary: Lambda => syntax for function and methods too Product: D Version: D2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: nob...@puremagic.com ReportedBy: bearophile_h...@eml.cc --- Comment #0 from bearophile_h...@eml.cc 2011-12-28 05:11:07 PST --- (From an idea of Timon Gehr) I think extending the applicability of the new lambda syntax to free functions/methods is a nice idea, to shorten tiny functions/methods, that are common enough: struct C { int x; int getX() => x; int sqrX() => x ^^ 2; } Some examples from other languages: A function to compute the arithmetic mean in Scala 2.7: def mean(s: Seq[Int]) = s.foldLeft(0)(_+_) / s.size >From the Ada 2012 changes: http://www.disca.upv.es/jorge/ae2010/slides/05-3_Language_Tech_Schonberg_Towards_Ada_2012.pdf > To simplify the writing of pre/postconditions and predicates, allow > parametrized expressions (aka function bodies in package specs): function Cube (X : integer) is (X ** 3); -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
