[julia-users] Re: isapprox Fallback

It is not enough to define isapprox(string, string). To use isapprox for [1.5, "foo"] you need an isapprox method for Array{Any}. However, I would be inclined to say you should re-consider using isapprox in such cases. (What does it mean for two strings to be "approximately" equal?) Note t

Re: [julia-users] ANN CustomREPLComepletions - custom string completions in function arguments (HDF5, NetCDF...)

Yes it does, it uses type inference to determine the return type of a function call. This way the determination of the argument type is effect free. You could maybe hook your package into the logic in REPLCompletion.jl in base.

It would be great if somebody can come up with a test case for this, but so far I can't. I think the current code is correct --- albeit unintentionally.
