[swift-evolution] Proposal: Pattern Matching Partial Function (#111)

[Denis Nikitenko]

+1 from me - I would like to see this discussion continue.  Swift already recognizes the utility of pattern matching for initialization by retaining the ?: operator.  It would be nice to see a more general and flexible solution that is still reasonably concise and doesn’t introduce new keywords and operators - though I’m sure at least some changes to the language would be inevitable.
