in this case it’s about 80% function calls. They’re convenience functions for assembly instructions, so they’re of the form:
load(Reg::D, "A"),
load_const(5),
which is more useful than variables would be. I guess i could use .join or a crate like concat_string? Either way i sorely miss arbitrary expression format strings from python =(
As far as I remember, the point for not allowing arbitrary expressions is that it makes what looks like formatting an arbitrary complex operation and that it doesn’t improve readability that much.
Although sometimes I miss being able to refer to fields in format, for function calls and especially this many, I agree with an advice to put strings in a vector and joining them. Plus, there is a limit to how many arguments format macro can accept, iirc
