I prefer this (Scala):

That's quite less readable. Scala sometimes has some unreadable

Designing languages requires to find a balance between several
different and opposed needs.

how about this hypothetical syntax:
list ~= [0..10];
I'm not sure what the type of "list" is supposed to be, but this works
today for arrays:
list ~= array(iota(0, 10));

What does iota mean?
