Talk:S-expressions: Difference between revisions

Line 172:
::There has been too much of the Python taken out I think. The intermediate language specific list structure should have been left in but instead of saying it was Python, just say enough so that implementers knew to use their languages native ints, floats, strings and nestable lists. (They might have to create a [[Linked list|linked list]] data-structure if their language or a library does not produce one).
::Also removed is the notion of taking the S-expression through to the internal representation, then back to an S-expression of the original which I thought was good too. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 07:08, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
:::huh? the only thing ever removed was: "must, in addition, recognise integers and floating point literals (that are distinguished as digits followed by a decimal point, followed by digits)." replacing it with "should, in addition, recognize numbers if the language has appropriate datatypes." i have also moved that paragraph in the process. this was the last edit on the description [http://rosettacode.org/mw/index.php?title=S-Expressions&diff=next&oldid=123268 (see diff)]
:::i have checked the complete history to make sure i didn't delete something by accident.--[[User:EMBee|eMBee]] 09:06, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
