Message: [QUOTE="ketil+news, post: 1731595"] You mean this position? | A program should balance named and unnamed objects. Both are useful, | there is a continuum between cases where one or the other is more clear I have a hard time interpreting this as extremist. Perhaps you should re-read what you are replying to? I'm rather baffled that anybody would argue against this, to me too, it is perfectly natural to use anonymous functions in exression, whether manifest as a lamda expressions, compositions of functions, combinators or partial applications (are there more?). To me, this is the same argument as that against excessive comments, overly verbose identifiers or annotations (like Hungarian notation) - if the code is short and clear enough, it only detracts from readability, and, at worst, becomes misleading or wrong. If the code isn't clear enough, it should be rewritten. -kzm [/QUOTE]
