Hallo, Steffen Juul hat gesagt: // Steffen Juul wrote:
@Frank: Would you mind pointing out what (minimum) requirements you
have for accepting new list-abs? Except for it to be vanilla and not
using [prefix/someobj], that i'm guessing is a rule.
The minimal requirements for an abstraction in [list]-abs would be: no externals, a well written help file, Pd's BSDish license, and it has to do something with lists.
I would also like to keep the [list]-abs as simple/elegant as possible. (That's actually the only reason list-order or list-sort aren't in yet: The implementations I've seen are rather complex, but I don't know of a simpler way myself. Probably [list sort] should become a builtin function of [list].)
OTOH they shouldn't be too simple: I must admit that in the first wave of creating the abstractions I didn't resist writing and including some trivial ones myself (I probably wouldn't include list-emath etc. again, as [list-map] etc. are better), but now they are in and may be in use somewhere. :(
Ciao
