If that's so, why do we not see this in other mainstream languages? While I see the slight advantage of seeing errors, that is the first thing node sees. I use either nodemon or cluster, which both monitor your program on saving your code. When you think you're ready to go, save and see if it has no compile errors.

- bartonfink 16y agoI do this all the time on large SQL statements. Otherwise, I rarely use the comma operator, so it hasn't come up.
- jberryman 16y agoI don't know if haskell counts as a mainstream language, but it's pretty common to see this pattern in a module's export list. I go back and forth.
- jerf 16y agoHaskell's an odd case; experienced Haskell users are likely to be thinking of the comma as less of a "separator" than a "combinator" constructing a tuple, and preceding-combinator-on-newline is an idiomatic style. Which doesn't disprove your point, I'm just saying it's an edge case. This is after all the language community that interprets a semicolon (as used in most languages) as a combinator too.
