<div dir="ltr">I agree with the general feelings of the thread. F#
relies on currying. Elixir relies on macros (it is actually
closer to the thread operator found in some lisps).
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also F# has most of its standard library expecting the
"subject" as last argument (due to currying). Elixir defaults
to the first argument. Erlang, for better or worse, has them
mixed (see binary and lists modules).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For those reasons I don't think this feature makes much
sense in Erlang. It is also hard to have elegant currying when
functions are identified by name and arity. I believe Joxa is
the only language in the Erlang VM with currying but they
dropped the fun name/arity bit (citation needed).</div>

<div>Language features are like a Jenga game, all the pieces
need to fit together neatly, otherwise you have a crumbling
mess.</div>

Are there any plans to have this in Erlang?<br>
