hah i was taught that style is "pointless"...

it comes from topology, no?

[garethrowlands]

Yeah that's a fun name for it. It is often a useful style:

    map (not . elem [2,3]) [1,2,3,4] ===> [True,False,False,True]

or

    grep foo bar.txt | wc -l

Also chaining in OOP is a bit "pointless", in that it doesn't mention the "points":

    foo.bar().baz()

But, like most things, it's best _in moderation_.

No idea. Does it? Never studied topology.
