Very, very cool Sven (and Henrik!)! And it even works with exotic objects: { 1@2. 2@3 } numbers sum ââ> (3@5)â Could Collections-Arithmetic be integrated into the collections operations? Not really sure thatâs a good idea, I just want to know. Cheers, Max

Thank you, Sven!
I like this very much.
This would also mean that we could deprecate Collection>>#sum altogether :))
Cheers, Doru

That is a cool take on a possible approach. Thanks for doing it, it makes it much easier to think about and discuss alternatives.
This inspired me to do something similar, but not quite. I am just thinking out loud by implementation. Here is my result:

There are some examples in the class comments.

Just a remark. I think that we discarded the proposition of having
aCol arithmetic sum
but I found it nice because there if was clear that you want to get back 0 for #().
