Subject: [Caml-list] pipe input short syntax idea
Date: Sat, 10 Oct 2015 15:52:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <mvb56e$qdl$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)

hi,

just an idea for a short notation which might be appealing:

(|> f |> g |> ... ) as abbreviation for (fun x -> x |> f |> g |> ...)

(|> f) would be just f.

in other words a it's function composition using |> . it looks intuitive
to me. but of course it could be a bad idea for a lot of reasons.

n,
