| Feb 25, 2015 at 17:50 | comment | added | Doval | I think the snippet about updating a large list is misleading; I don't know of any compiler that will actually perform that optimization for you. Even if the compiler could do that, it's only possible in cases where you don't hold on to previous versions of the list. The real solution is to use a list data structure that doesn't require copying the whole thing to change a single element. | |
