[REBOL] Re: Tuples - Was Pair! thread

From: greggirwin:mindspring at: 7-Feb-2002 11:25

Hi Mark, << Is Pair! a lame datatype? >> Nope, at least not IMO. For one thing, it can save lots of effort when scaling and sizing. Using them as direction guides for gradient effects seemed a little odd to me at first, but I got over that pretty quickly. They also make it very easy to write rectangle intersection and union routines. --Gregg
