Use Mathematica as a terminal @Lime There is no deep reason for my choice... until you mentioned it I hadn't really noticed that I had switched my common usage from <> to ~~. |

Suspecting bug in Parallel Framework @Szabolcs ... But to prohibit library code from referencing named arguments within a slotted pure function is far too draconian. It is much easier to prohibit client code from using dangling slots -- it is rare and easily avoided. I totally agree that it is unfortunate that these cases exist and that code generation can be very hard. My strategy to cope with that is to try to avoid non-trivial evaluations within generation (e.g using Hold, Block, etc). |

Suspecting bug in Parallel Framework @Szabolcs. True the documentation has an example of generated slots, but the example conforms to my advice to only use it when the exact context is known ( f has no definitions). I totally agree to report it -- I reported the issue in my blog. Sounds like a great possible issue for the docs. However, I anticipate the same response: avoid the situation. ... |

Suspecting bug in Parallel Framework @OleksandrR It is not always a simple matter to bulletproof a pure function body against injected slot references. What about the Send function exhibited in @Szabolcs answer? Named pure function arguments don't help either -- they have problems of their own. Even if such bulletproofing were simple, it is not common practice. I'm not arguing that this behaviour is desirable, but I am saying that we shouldn't expect well-defined behaviour from an ill-defined language construct. |
