Message-ID: <200904031256.33357.jon@ffconsultancy.com> (raw)
I read that batteries included provides first-class rope-based strings and I
was just reading up on some horror stories about immutable strings on
StackOverflow. This made me wonder what people's thoughts are about mutable
vs immutable strings?
I had never thought about it until I started porting my OCaml code to F# where
strings are immutable and I found immutable strings to be a PITA. Immutable
array-based strings seem pointless to me but I'd still appreciate an
immutable rope-based string...
