But all arithmetical operations are recursively definable from 0 and
sucessorship, so what's the difference? ;-)
In all seriousness, though: thanks for the further comments and the
helper-function-intense sample code. I'll have a think before I try to
decide which I prefer -- I like the division of responsibilities, but
worry that the conceptual units have become a bit too small for taste.
And, fret not over the typos that you followed up about. I parsed as
intended just fine. :-)
Thanks again,
Brian vdB
