I’ve definitely written a few of these methods myself, and if they were available in the standard library, I’d probably reach for them more often instead of less elegant solutions.</div><div class=""><br class="">> • Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The language could survive without these changes, but if made, would prove useful.</div><div class=""><br class="">> • Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Yes.</div><div class=""><br class="">> • If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Ruby has a lot of these kinds of tools and they have been useful.</div><div class=""><br class="">> • How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">a quick reading</div><div class=""><br class="">> <br class="">> More information about the Swift evolution process is available at <a href="https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/process.md<https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/process.md>" class="">https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/process.md<https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/process.md></a><br class="">> <br class="">> Thank you,<br class="">> <br class="">> Ben Cohen<br class="">> Review Manager<br class="">> <br class="">> <br class="">> <br class="">> <br class="">><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
