Interesting. But I still don't understand, why to use custom DSL instead of
familiar Ruby (ok, with changin && => &)
#having
employees.select do |e|
sort_by(e.age)
limit(2,10)
(e.name == 'John') & (e.salary > 50)
end
#proposal:
employees.select{|e| (e.name == 'John') & (e.salary > 50)}.sort_by{|e|
e.age}[2..10]
The latter is "just Ruby".
