Comment on Swift: Not quite there, but too far gone tooparent

Other issues is for example, how import code into a playground:

and when importing obj-c code https://devforums.apple.com/message/972445#972445 it suddenly can't refer to them.

How much is this about xcode or the language is something I don't know.

The thing is, I'm a avid supported of alternate languages. When everyone use VB, I use FoxPro. When is C, I use Delphi. I get iOS instead of Android, and python instead of php.

But with swift I hit in less than half a hour several crashes & weird behaviour (not just: i don't know how use this lang) that I rarely experiment when use other langs.

But: I still continue with this, because the lang -despite the flaws (no exceptions? why ...? and other stuff) seem enjoyable.
