> Automatic currying is dangerous Why?

• tpxl 9y ago
  You can accidentally leave out a parameter and end up with a function instead of the result.

    That's an issue when there's no type checking, but a lot of languages with currying by default have type systems

    Are there any dynamic languages that have automatic currying? I agree that that would be dangerous, but it's also something that I've literally never seen.

      I don't know, but that's the first thing that popped into my mind after "this is cool". It would generally be a non-issue with good development tools.
