[REBOL] Re: paths & lookups & change

From: rebol:techscribe at: 23-Oct-2003 23:30

Hi Robert. My preference for this kind of tasks is using objects. Even though it is a little more verbose, I find it quite intuitive to use the get and set functions, as in:
>> db: make object! reduce [ to-set-word "first word" 1 to-set-word
second word 2 ]
>> probe db
make object! [ first word: 1 second word: 2 ]
>> key: to-word "second word" >> set in db key (get in db key) + 1 >> probe db
make object! [ first word: 1 second word: 3 ] Elan Brett Handley wrote:
