What's the best string representation of a function? Comparing with other PLs: Python: <function __main__.add_one()> JS: [Function: addOne] Clojure: #function[user/add-one] Scheme: #<procedure add-one (x)> I'm currently thinking about <fun add_one() foo.gdn:123>

I'm playing with DOT output for debugging syntax trees from difftastic. Here's an F# snippet, the Debug representation, and the DOT rendered as an image. I'm pleased with the information density on the graphic, but we'll see how often I end up using it.

Noodling with an interpreter for a statically typed language with reified types (e.g. a list knows what type it contains). Currently I have a single representation of types in both the runtime and the type checker. I think that's a good thing?
