On missing function #overloading in #Rust …

… while doing trait & generics exercises from “Tweede Golf” <will add link later>, the repeated pattern matching was getting on my nerves. So much #boilerplate💩 Really was longing for C++, even Java, then :rust: :omya_blank:
Yes I am more than happy to trade type inference for parameter type & arity based overloading.
#Rust_did_not_bring_joy in this case but busywork. May prefer to glue others’ work than write anything original, undecided.
#MeisterKonfus sagt, dass eine ständige #Überlast und/oder #Unterlast anstelle eines kontinuierlichen Flusses ein guter Weg ist, die #Verschwendung zu maximieren. Achte also immer darauf, dass kein kontinuierlicher Fluss entstehen kann. #Flow
#Konfus says that constant #overloading and/or #underloading instead of a continuous flow is a good way to maximise #waste. So always make sure that there is no #continuousflow.
Thanks to all who contributed. I created 4 implementations based on this conversation:
1. A 2-arg function with branches on isinstance
2. A function with class-pattern matching on arg pack
3. Many functions using singledispatch
4. Many functions using multipledispatch [does not work in CE due to missing module]
The 4th one looks cleanest and is closest to C++, Java overloading. Don't know about performance.
Thanks again, comments welcome. 🙏
Pythonistas, how does one **sanely** implement the following function interface?
f(float) -> int
f(str) -> str
f(int, str) -> int
f(list, float) -> str
My Python is 1/10. So, link to a solution (sketch) would be immensely helpful. 🙏
PS:
- Return types don't really matter but I show it for completeness
- setting aside questions like "why this interface?"
- omitted saying "overload" to avoid "can't really overload" responses, but there I said it. 😆

Sqrt - if a #subtype can be defined for the reals, to separate positive and negative reals, two functions can be written for the reals, one to return a real when parameter is + another to return a complex value when it is
