Heh heh ... yea ... LOVE those compound lines with x.y.z.a.b.c() ...
SO comprehensible :-)
I have occasionally found method-chaining to be useful, particularly with
graphics APIs, e.g.
(draw
.close_path()
.set_source_colour(bg_colour)
.fill_preserve()
.set_line_width(line_thickness)
.set_source_colour(fg_colour)
.stroke()
)
If you want biz reports and checks printed - COBOL !
Could never handle proportional fonts and nice text layouts, though.
Python deals with those sorts of things better.
