Hi Joel,
Great post. Something that interests me is how we go about emulating
the behavior of different languages as we work. For example, how would
we build constructs in REBOL to emulate what Perl does with
auto-sizing arrays, or what would a Perlite/Perler/Perl-monger (proper
term?) do to provide protection *against* auto-sizing if it wasn't
desired.
One of the most pervasive places I've seen this is how people have
implemented (or attempted to) design by contract in various languages
that didn't support it originally.
Thanks for another thoughtful post.
