//! Compute the sum of the numbers of a structure.
|
||
|
//! @ingroup group-Foldable
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! More generally, `sum` will take any foldable structure containing
|
||
|
//! objects forming a Monoid and reduce them using the Monoid's binary
|
||
|
//! operation. The initial state for folding is the identity of the
|
||
|
//! Monoid. It is sometimes necessary to specify the Monoid to use;
|
||
|
//! this is possible by using `sum<M>`. If no Monoid is specified,
|
||
|
//! the structure will use the Monoid formed by the elements it contains
|
||
|
//! (if it knows it), or `integral_constant_tag<int>` otherwise. Hence,
|
||
|
//! @code
|
||
|
//! sum<M>(xs) = fold_left(xs, zero<M or inferred Monoid>(), plus)
|
||
|
//! sum<> = sum<integral_constant_tag<int>>
|
||
|
//! @endcode
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! For numbers, this will just compute the sum of the numbers in the
|
||
|
//! `xs` structure.
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! @note
|
||
|
//! The elements of the structure are not actually required to be in the
|
||
|
//! same Monoid, but it must be possible to perform `plus` on any two
|
||
|
//! adjacent elements of the structure, which requires each pair of
|
||
|
//! adjacent element to at least have a common Monoid embedding. The
|
||
|
//! meaning of "adjacent" as used here is that two elements of the
|
||
|
//! structure `x` and `y` are adjacent if and only if they are adjacent
|
||
|
//! in the linearization of that structure, as documented by the Iterable
|
||
|
//! concept.
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Why must we sometimes specify the `Monoid` by using `sum<M>`?
|
||
|
//! -------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
//! This is because sequence tags like `tuple_tag` are not parameterized
|
||
|
//! (by design). Hence, we do not know what kind of objects are in the
|
||
|
//! sequence, so we can't know a `0` value of which type should be
|
||
|
//! returned when the sequence is empty. Therefore, the type of the
|
||
|
//! `0` to return in the empty case must be specified explicitly. Other
|
||
|
//! foldable structures like `hana::range`s will ignore the suggested
|
||
|
//! Monoid because they know the tag of the objects they contain. This
|
||
|
//! inconsistent behavior is a limitation of the current design with
|
||
|
//! non-parameterized tags, but we have no good solution for now.
|
||
|
//!

||
|

||
|

||
|
//! -------

||
|
//! @include example/sum.cpp
