C++ has polyadic programming which is flakey but sort of works reasonably well in practice some of the time even though it is technically unsound .. <:) For example, 'fold' is defined for all data structures, just once (it's called accumulate). This is miles ahead of Ocaml and Haskell, however I'll stick with correctness, thanks. -- John Skaller <skaller at users dot sf dot net> Felix, successor to C++: http://felix.sf.net
