So instead of:
dictionary := { $a -> 1. $b -> 2. $c -> 3 } asDictionary.
I need to type:
dictionary := Dictionary new
add: $a -> 1;
add: $b -> 2;
add: $c -> 3;
yourself.
? In my opinion the other dialects should adopt this or propose
another way of doing it. No concise syntax for dynamically creating a
collection seems a problem to me, and easy to remedy in a language
where one has access to the reader/compiler. So why would it be bad
to do so?
