Note that the slice is passed into the map as an anonymus list.

    That's always confused me, thanks for pointing me at the relevant document. I had the mistaken idea that the distinction was whether the array held similar things like (1, 3, 4) or the list held different sorts of thing like ("fred", 27, "male"). By that standard calling it an anonymous list was still wrong, doh!

    Cheers,
