Hello! I've been trying out Julia 0.5-rc1, and noticed one aspect in which
it behaves differently from 0.4. If I do
function f(x)
if x > 0
g(x) = x
else
g(x) = -x
end
return g(x)
end
I get the following warning
WARNING: Method definition in module Main at REPL[1]:3 overwritten at REPL[1]:5.
and in fact, g(x) ends up being always -x, that is, a single function g is
defined in compile time following the last definition inside f. Is that
behavior expected? I remember doing the same in Julia 0.4 and getting
different g's depending on the value of x. What's the best way of dealing
with this?
Thanks!
Andre
