I really enjoy having the ability to write and nesting my code at the
appropriate indentation level in my file. Extensions are fabulous, but I
wonder—solely for readability/style sake, could we allow you to properly
namespace your extensions? Though I don’t know the implementation cost of
this, I think it could be useful to be able to write this:
class MathEvaluator
{
struct Number
{
let value: Double
}
struct Operation
{
let numbers: (Number, Number)
let transform: (Double, Double) -> Double
}
extension Number
{
var factors: [Double]
{
// Calculate and return the factors
}
}
}
…which would be completely equivalent to:
class MathEvaluator
{
struct Number
{
let value: Double
}
struct Operation
{
let numbers: (Number, Number)
let transform: (Double, Double) -> Double
}
}
extension MathEvaluator.Number
{
var factors: [Double]
{
// Calculate and return the factors
}
}
This change is in the same ball park as this, proposed a week or two ago:
struct MathEvaluator.Number
{
let value: Double
var factors: [Double]
{
// Calculate and return the factors
}
