Wouldn't be nice to do

function split = |text, seperator=";"| {
...
}

require(split("foo;bar") is ["foor", "bar"], "Default separator value)
require(split("foo:bar", ":") is ["foor", "bar"], "Explicited defined separator value)

Sounds famimiar. You told me the dame with the string interpolation :smile:

You can already do

function split = |text, seperator| {
...
}

function split = |text| -> split(text, ";")

require(split("foo;bar") is ["foor", "bar"], "Default separator value)
require(split("foo:bar", ":") is ["foor", "bar"], "Explicited defined separator value)

:smile:

btw, having named arguments/parameters would also be nice, and seems to be a related topic.
