From: shevegen@... Date: 2017-11-14T21:49:41+00:00 Subject: [ruby-core:83768] [Ruby trunk Feature#14105] Introduce xor as alias for Set#^ Issue #14105 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler). I am neutral on this so either way is fine by me. I very rarely use Set so I suppose I would not even notice any change in the first place. :) I may be wrong but the amount of approved feature additions appears to have slowed down in the last 2-3 weeks or so. There could be many reasons for this but I assume that one is the upcoming x-mas release in about a month (which, I assume, means that bug fixes probably have a higher priority at the moment; at the least I see nobu being busy doing lots of changes primarily related to bug fixes). Ultimately you only have to convince matz. :) It may help to showcase specific examples, e. g. the exact different for Set#xor rather than Set#^. (I assume that one practical advantage for the ^ is because it may be shorter to type, but again, I really have no particular pro or con opinion here, just pointing out a few not so relevant things. :P) ---------------------------------------- Feature #14105: Introduce xor as alias for Set#^ https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14105#change-67806 * Author: ana06 (Ana Maria Martinez Gomez) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: ---------------------------------------- Not sure if I should also add feautures for the `Set` class here or if I should do it somewhere else. I would like to add a more readable method for the exclusive or, currently as `^` in set. It is in both mathematics, hardware and many other programming languages known as `xor`, so I think this will help to use it. ---Files-------------------------------- firefox.desktop (528 Bytes) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
