I shoot in my own foot. My example was extremly bad. Give me a better try: (1) my size(4), human DNA ($alpha, $beta, $gamma, $delta ) = ( 'atgc', 'ctga', 'aatt', 'ccaa' ); is so perfect, vs (2) my DNA ($alpha, $beta, $gamma, $delta) is human, size(4) = ( 'atgc', 'ctga', 'aatt', 'ccaa' ); which is so prone to overlook the "eucaryotic" property during i.e. debugging hassle. Why do code beautify (2) when (1) so crystal clear without it. And (1) is so close to natural language. BTW: are multiple properties separated with ',' ? This was my last try, promise! Murat
