Damian:
Can I suggest that an alternative solution might be the following:
Suppose Perl 6 had two new very low precedence operators: ~ and ~
(a.k.a. bind rightwards and bind leftwards)
@out = @a ~ grep {...} ~ map {...} ~ sort;
@out = sort ~ map {...} ~ grep
Aaron Crane:
However, I don't think it should be called 'seperate'. I also don't think
it should be called 'separate', because that word seems to be commonly
misspelled...
That seems like an excellent argument for calling it 'separate'. Perhaps it
will be the first of many spelling-improving
Angel Faus:
Maybe the solution is to make it hash-wise:
%hash = @array.sep {
when /^[A-Z]*$/ {'uppercase'}
when /^[a-z]*$/ {'lowercase'}
default {'mixedcase'}
}
I agree that general partitioning is 'better' than a fixed binary proposal,
but what is gained
[apologies to anyone who received this twice... the bonehead at the keyboard
left the subject blank. grin]
This week I was fortunate enough to hear Damian speak twice, once on
everything and once on Perl6. Damian, it was tremendous of you to come
and speak to us in London - thank-you very
