I read that batteries included provides first-class rope-based strings and I was just reading up on some horror stories about immutable strings on StackOverflow. This made me wonder what people's thoughts are about mutable vs immutable strings?
I had never thought about it until I started porting my OCaml code to F# where strings are immutable and I found immutable strings to be a PITA. Immutable array-based strings seem pointless to me but I'd still appreciate an immutable rope-based string... -- Dr Jon Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com/?e _______________________________________________ Caml-list mailing list.
