I have no idea what dscape/p/ is trying to achieve. Missmatch looks and feels more like Haskell or OCaml to me, though your comment on strings is fair. (if you can explain those 30 LOCs and why I'd enjoy using them, go for it :))
Also, UNDER 1k including HEAVY commenting, to be fair. -- Joshua Gross Christian / Web Development Consultant / BA Candidate of Computer Science, UW-Madison 2013 414-377-1041 / http://www.joshisgross.com On Jul 21, 2012, at 7:02 PM, Nuno Job <nunojobpi...@gmail.com> wrote: > 1 thousands lines of code? wow. > > I appreciate the work and thought put into this, but pattern does the same > thing (and in my opinion in a more elegant way) in 30 loc.
