Array Splice to remove element

[DavidSouther]

In CoffeeScript Redux, this does not compile:

arr = ['a', 'b', 'c']
idx = 1
arr[idx..idx] = []

http://michaelficarra.github.io/CoffeeScriptRedux/#try:arr%20%3D%20%5B'a'%2C%20'b'%2C%20'c'%5D%0Aidx%20%3D%201%0Aarr%5Bidx..idx%5D%20%3D%20%5B%5D%0A

In CoffeeScript, it compiles to

var arr, idx, _ref;

arr = ['a', 'b', 'c'];

idx = 1;

[].splice.apply(arr, [idx, idx - idx + 1].concat(_ref = [])), _ref;

Which has the effect of in-place removing the idx element from the array.

NB if the answer is, "Don't use this syntax, use splice as it's intended", that's totes cool, but a mention of that in the know breaking changes would be 👍

+1 for making it work the same as it does in the original CoffeeScript

It will, @slang800.

When, @michaelficarra? The pulse for redux is looking mighty sparse.
