docs: add comparison list to existing features in C#
It may be interesting to add a grid comparison of features available in functional vs C# in the readme file. Here is a preview (not sure of the correct version) :
| Functional features | C# equivalent | C# version | SuccincT equivalent | SuccincT version |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pattern matching | ||||
is and switch / when |
C# 7 | |||
| Discriminated Unions | Planned for C# 8 | |||
| Option<T> | N/A | |||
| Partial applications | N/A |
What do you think?
Is Option really planned for C# 8? Are you referring to nullable reference types?
It's an interesting idea. Not sure about pattern matching though. C# 7's pattern matching support is very limited. So I'd need to break down that down into types of patterns and detail what's covered, where.
Well worth considering though.
@DavidArno I think you know it better than me. I updated the table so it looks like a corresponding table.
Tell me what is missing so we can complete the table and add it to the docs.
