[REBOL] Re: dbms3.r 01

From: g:santilli:tiscalinet:it at: 19-Jan-2002 17:23

Hello Gregg! On 18-Gen-02, you wrote: GI> I think I would say that a block of word/value pairs (e.g. [a GI> 1 b 2]) is more like an associative array. Can an object's GI> spec block be extended, or modified, after it is created? It can't, so you are right; but an object still seems the best solution in my case. Remember that: b: [a 1 b 2] b/b ; is O(n) while contexts are likely to be optimized for word lookups. (Well, I know Ladislav has something to say about this...)
