You think that's bad, wait until you find out about the difference between that and =.
Or legacy data operators.

R is just a bad language. Arrows are fine by themselves.

you can just use =

also switch to python

>implying the = sign is a better choice for an assignment
If you're a mathematician, writing something like n = n + 3 looks just wrong.
Programmers have just forgotten that = used to mean equality and not assigning a value.

tfw cant use -> anymore
tfw > is an arrow and you cant use it

object_ptr->method();

I don't see a problem.

I want a programming language that doesn't require the use of the shift key

>>59106691
