I have always believed that, in get(X,y,z), z would be evaluated only
when dictionary X does not contain key y. Today, to my surprise, I have
discovered that it is not the case:
fun! Loop()
call Loop()
endf
let H = { 'a': 1 }
if has_key(H, 'a') || Loop() " Fine, this is evaluated lazily
endif
echo (get(H, 'a') != 0) ? "" : Loop() " Fine, lazy
" But, endless recursion here:
echo get(H, 'a', Loop())
What is the rationale for this behaviour?
Thanks,
Life.
