My only problem with `=` vs `in`
is that even the base julia code is inconsistent! Looking at one file ( I 
can't remember which now)
it had both
i = 1:nr
and
i in 1:n
Again this was in the same file! Please tell me I am not being pedantic 
when I saw this and thought this must be fixed if even the base is being 
inconsistent.
