No idea, but it would probably find it very difficult to moove.

What do you call a deer with no eyes?
No idea.
What do you call a deer with no eyes and no legs?
Still no idea.

yep. or self-flagellating my way to better code. how much self-inflicted emotional abuse will it take to get me an LL(k) table generation algorithm?

Psst...it's much less grating if you make your default assignment properly in the first place.
Also, declare some classes every one in while! At least an interface: IRuleSymbolCollection or something!
public IRuleSymbolCollection FillPredictK(IEnumerable<string> prefix, IDictionary<string, IRuleSymbolCollection> result = new Dictionary<string, IRuleSymbolCollection>()){...}

Do you have any idea how many of those little one off types I'd have to define for this code if I did that?
These tuples are used for like one calculation. And there's all kinds of different ones.
It doesn't make sense to define types for them since they are just purely data holders for the purpose of computational functions. The functions themselves represent mathematical equations and the math behind them also uses tuples.

I get that, but you can fulfill an interface with a tuple rather than a concrete type.
Even if that interface only exists for this method, the moment you wrote it more than once it became worth moving the definition to an interface for single-point refactoring.

Color me stupid (it's late in my defense), but I don't understand.
That's what I am doing, as far as I can tell. You changed my tuple to a concrete type.

One of the side effects of this method coming from math is the math is like 40 years old and has been proved to death so the odds of refactoring this method are almost nil, short of me for some reason changing to entirely different collection interfaces which I also probably won't do since I derive them strictly from the math involved (which one i use i mean, IEnumerable (stream or minimal set), ICollection (unordered set), IList (ordered set), IDictionary (set with grouping)

No, an interface is not a concrete type.

Absolutely, and if your tuples were nothing but primitives this argument would hold water. The types you're using in the tuple are not primitives, though, and you might well want to modify or replace those at some time.

Oh okay, I was misunderstanding you. You mean because CfgRule isn't primitive?
in the math it is. that's the kicker. it's always it's own "tuple" but for the purposes of coding it's easier to work with as a class.
still, I don't think that should "poison" anything it touches - IOW it should still be containable by a tuple especially if it's represented that way math-wise.
EDIT: They used to *be* tuples in previous incarnations of the code but I was performing so many operations on them they needed a class so I could customize the value comparisons to compare the right hand side collections. thats' the only reason they aren't tuples. I'm not really interested in extending the rule class much. It's basically a tuple with corrected value semantics to handle the collection it contains
