Curried types
() => int
andunit => int
are equivalent.However, uncurried types have explicit arity. After this PR,
(. ()) => int
means arity 0, and(. unit) => int
means arity 1. The distinction was always there, but it was not reflected in the syntax.This is a breaking change. In addition, the formatter before this PR does not help, as it would always format to
(. unit) => int
.In uncurried mode, these uncurried types are written as
() => int
andunit => int
.
