Indeed, I missed the output for find! A warning would definitely be helpful.
I like that you have users and thus will be able to test things out and get some genuine feedback.
This might however introduce a bias guiding your language and standard library in a certain direction (I think it's inevitable and what's happening in all languages anyway) .. Therefore I would add some of your peers into the mix.
Otherwise I really like the directions you are exploring, as I've come to very similar conclusions at this point in my career:
- being able to modify a system through safe additions
- not focusing too much on local details of a system
- akkartik 11y agoYeah, the reactions here have been invaluable. It's interesting: I actually got into teaching because I had trouble getting programmers to try Mu out. Most people tend to unconsciously filter out what seems gratuitously new and different. But I'll keep trying.
- akkartik 11y agoI just added the warning.. and found several bugs in my mu code. Thanks! I've credited you in this commit: https://github.com/akkartik/mu/commit/8fd27372b6 https://github.com/akkartik/mu/commit/8fd27372b6
