Exactly the above badidea's post (first response).
The others are digressions.

Referring to the above example of paul doe, defining a cast operator is useless in this use case.
By cons, it would allow the following syntax:
? cast(athing, manythings(0)).x

For my part, I usually put a title (if necessary) above the code box and a general description (if necessary) at the beginning of the code box. I also noticed that the 'tag' {{fbdoc it...

From other thread Speed issue with string concatenation and a solution For this case: sub adding(sg as string) main_string += sg end sub main_string could be passed in sg, which would be same as main_string += main_string. main_string can't be reallocated and also be valid, so a temporary is always...

7 years ago, I had already written a feature request about this problem: #245 Execution speed optimization of var-len string instruction You observation corresponds to my paragraph 2.3 in this analyse. We can verify that the problem comes back if we dereference a string pointer (even pointing to a l...

there has been a grammatical issue introduced, with the last changes: "the resultant ( blending ) color" portion, should read: "the resultant (blended) color" [it is "past tense"] What does dodicat (a Scottish) think about this wording problem that I copied from his pr...
