I can understand why piping is attractive, and if you want it as a language defining feature as the author that's your prerogative. :) So is the .new() method

So is the .new() method in that case an alternate constructor (i.e. constructor code will not run only the contents of the new method will) or is it a method being invoked after the constructor code runs?
- jesserayadkins2 10y agoNo, there's only one constructor for any given class. The body of a class is the constructor of a class, and that constructor is made available through a method called .new. It's sort of like...Python, and imagining that you get __init__ created for you automatically. It's just two ways of doing the same inner call.
- mkesper 10y agoPython omits the new() thing, didn't miss it yet.
