Huh?!? While not so bad (apart the unicode operator I still can't help feeling uneasy with), do you really think it would be intuitive? For one thing, the symmetry of the xx operator doesn't make it immediate to tell which of its arguments is the one that will be feed to rand() and which is the "iterator"... Michele -- you need a brain hack. or a brain of any sort. try a nematode first. the small incremental improvement won't be such a shock. then you can graduate to segmented worm brains. - Uri Guttman on CPLM, "Array Sort Using Regex Matching Fails"
