Re: [sc-dev] [approve] Function-block change to return function result, and accept arguments




I don't really see the point. You can just wrap another function. Give me an example of how this could be useful.

   block { |... args|
      var result;
      result = this.valueArray([{ |val| ^val }] ++
args);
      ^result
   }

This would make block a break-able version of value.

Some folks on the Web forum were asking about this. I
have mixed feelings -- I think relying on early return
a lot is a bad programming habit. Could be useful
sometimes, though.
