I wanted to write the same, but now, looking at the code (@edit dump(r)) I found a maxdepth argument :heart_eyes:

dump(r, maxdepth = 20)

Cool, was looking for exactly that!

(good opportunity for a first PR if anyone wants to edit the documentation … … … … … :smile:): (edit: documented on trunk document maxdepth keyword for dump (#24288) by jw3126 · Pull Request #24378 · JuliaLang/julia · GitHub)

This was really helpful. I’m not OP and I have read the metaprogramming section of the manual (multiple times), but I still don’t really understand macros intuitively, deep in my heart. That’s probably still true, but posts like this help chip away at the confusion. Thanks!

I would recommend On Lisp to anyone who really wants to learn macros, and is willing to put in some time and effort.

I have an open issue for exactly that enhancement of the docs.

Apologies for shameless self-promotion, but I produced some tutorial-type material on metaprogramming that may be useful:

  • Video here; starts at 1:29:21.

  • Notebooks here.
