[REBOL] Re: name of var passed to func

From: ingo:2b1 at: 2-Dec-2000 23:58

Let me add this one ...

>> x: 5
== 5
>> ?? 5
(integer): 5
== 5
>> ?? x
x (integer): 5
== 5
>> source ??
??: func [
    {

      Prints a variable name followed by its type and molded value. (for debugging) *PATCHED*
      (iho) added type output
   }
    'name
][
    print either word? :name [
        either value? name [
            rejoin [name " (" type? get name "): " mold name: get name]
        ] [
            rejoin [name " (no value)"]
        ]
    ] [
        rejoin ["(" type? :name "): " mold :name]
    ]
    :name
]
>>

hope that helps,
