Quick reality check: Where is the value in String/Array functions that test for emptiness? 'These methods are nothing more than wrappers around code like, "if (!aString) ...", or "if (!anArray.length) ..." - i.e. JS already has perfectly good constructs for this.
It's great that Prototype is inspired by Ruby, but much of it's charm is due to the fact it's done a good job of avoiding the pitfall of providing lots of syntactic sugar for people that don't know JS. (Nevermind that Array#empty() would seem to be synonomous with "! Array#any()", btw) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype: Core" group.
