What you're describing is the exact same, just different syntax.
- always_good 9y agoYes, we are talking about syntax. OP's first four words: "The thing about syntax".
- thepratt 9y agoNo, the comment replied to has the first four words "Might be cool to". The differences are so minuscule that the argument could be made for it to be 2 differing standards for the same language.
- always_good 9y agoI don't understand your point, much less why you're using the "first four words" thing back at me on my own comment. The differences may be miniscule. They are syntactic. "Might be cool to" have this other syntax. You're just belaboring the obvious.
- coldtea 9y agoThat's the whole point. Syntax can be very influential in how people use (or don't) a language
- thepratt 9y agoYes and no. For what I replied to is essentially garden shedding the language. The overall problem is grasping the concepts, weather or not you want es6 style lambdas, or proper haskell function definitions is irrelevant if you don't understand the concepts.
