No work has been done yet. We have string-dictionaries, and I have a tentative plan for how to implement more general dictionaries, but there hasn't been any time to implement...

At the moment, the **only** use of `foldl` in the codebase that might notice this are in my just-revised version of `sort-by` and in the docs (in `labelled-tree.arr` and `moorings.markdown`);...

Iirc, that standalone signature is compatible with for loop syntax: `for foldl(acc from initial, x from xs): ... end` On Jun 9, 2017 3:35 PM, "ds26gte" wrote: > If we...

That's not a good example function, because addition has two arguments of the same type, and addition is commutative on numbers. Try ``` l = [list: "1", "2", "3", "4",...

No, they're not. The method form takes a callback that takes its accumulator first; the function form takes a callback that takes its accumulator second. This appears to be a...

(This is *not* about using `foldl` versus `foldr` -- lists.arr defines `fold = foldl`, so we expect this to be left-folding behavior. The fact that the runtime function doesn't match...

There are two codepaths used when compiling cases: one of them inlines the case body right where it's used, and the other delegates out to a separate function. There's a...

For this particular error, the plan is to solve it completely by making `Color` be a data type, with a boatload of singleton constructors -- it's a massive enum, basically...

Did we actually come to a conclusion in the email thread from August 18 ("color proposal summary"), did we just get exhausted with it, or did we decide to defer...

Yes and no -- there are now two image libraries: one legacy (with stringy arguments) and one strongly-typed (with enumerated arguments). Colors fit into both. And finding the list of...
