On: My Opinion on “5” == 5

[rspeele]

C#, GoLang, Javascript, Python, and Ruby are several.

Python and Ruby even overload *, for the dubiously useful construction:

"hello" * 3 == "hellohellohello"

[infogulch → rspeele]

I like Julia's standard string concat which subverts a Python user's intuition: "string1" * "string2" == "string1string2". Why? Because monad.
