@familyfriendlymikey strings that don't contain spaces can bw written (in ruby and imba1) like this |
Let them write "mikey" and let rubyists write :mikey. No? |
@madmaniak I agree. I would use it too (now that I know what it is 😆) One question though: what's the compiled output of this? let c = a :b
I think that's the main reason it was dropped and it would be too confusing to have |
Surely option 2 - you write |
Agree let's do it 💯 , and syntax highlighting helps with this (although @familyfriendlymikey doesn't use syntax highlighting) It comes down to Sindre's opinion on it 😄 |
There is another way, which I find a better fit for imba (Borrowed from lisp): let name = 'Sindre It starts with the quote so it's closer to a string and it behaves the same as rubys |
Awesome. |
