[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next] [Date Index] [Thread Index] 

If we are already discussing syntax-

I always wondered why
"%i":format(1)
is invalid and needs to be written as
("%i"):format(1)

Would the short form introduce ambiguities? Or is it more one of those
"it just turned out that way"- things?
