<p>Dear Sir:</p>
<p>I don´t like your way of answering. Period.</p>
<p>Mathematical operators on matrices (+, -, *, ~, etc.) have being
defined centuries ago, and all the scientific community uses the
same conventions on them. It´s not proper that somebody now would
like to redefine the conventions on his own will, regarless of the
user´s community opinions.</p>
<p>If you like an operator for concatenation, which is A WHOLE NEW
FEATURE, please use a different or invented operator. You can use
concatenator operarators borrowed from PHP ("."), Excel - VB
("&"), or invent your own one ( +. +~ +* etc)</p>
<p>I firmly oppose to any of your intentions (define the + operator
for concatenation and allow user defined operators to take
precedence). It doesn´t make sense. It´s not logical.</p>
<p>Thank you for hearing at me, and my apologies for my rough
language.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Roger Rivero<br>

<div dir="auto">What might be done however (and what I had

<div dir="auto">Though I wouldn't mind introducing a syntax that
can be used to force a element wise operation on a array. This
way one wouldn't need to do the overload for the array, but
the compiler would pick the operator of the element type
instead. </div>
