Hi,
I want to include an abstraction into [list]-abs which acts as a wrapper around [list split] but also accepts negative indices to split off a list from the back. That is, a "list 0 1 2 3 4" splitted at index "-2" would give two lists, "0 1 2" and "3 4".
While this is no problem to implement, I'm still undecided about, how I should order the outlets of this abstractions?
To recapitulate: Currently the standard [list split 2] would send "0 1" to the first outlet and "2 3 4" to the second.
Should a fictional [list split -2] send "3 4" to the first or to the second outlet?
(Note: I tend to prefer sendign "3 4" to the first outlet, as it's technically easier, but I would like your opinions, too.)
Ciao
