funny ambiguous error message
Mon, 2011-10-17, 08:59
scala> (1 /: List(2,3)) ((p:(Int, Int)) => p._1*p._2)
<console>:9: error: type mismatch;
found : (Int, Int) => Int
required: (Int, Int) => Int
(1 /: List(2,3)) ((p:(Int, Int)) => p._1*p._2)
It is not a big puzzle, in this specific simple context, but I believe it might make sense for the error message to be more explicit. :)
Thanks,

It's a bug, and already fixed.
