//! @ingroup group-functional
|
||
|
//! Curry a function up to the given number of arguments.
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! [Currying][Wikipedia.currying] is a technique in which we consider a
|
||
|
//! function taking multiple arguments (or, equivalently, a tuple of
|
||
|
//! arguments), and turn it into a function which takes a single argument
|
||
|
//! and returns a function to handle the remaining arguments. To help
|
||
|
//! visualize, let's denote the type of a function `f` which takes
|
||
|
//! arguments of types `X1, ..., Xn` and returns a `R` as
|
||
|
//! @code
|
||
|
//! (X1, ..., Xn) -> R
|
||
|
//! @endcode
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Then, currying is the process of taking `f` and turning it into an
|
||
|
//! equivalent function (call it `g`) of type
|
||
|
//! @code
|
||
|
//! X1 -> (X2 -> (... -> (Xn -> R)))
|
||
|
//! @endcode
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! This gives us the following equivalence, where `x1`, ..., `xn` are
|
||
|
//! objects of type `X1`, ..., `Xn` respectively:
|
||
|
//! @code
|
||
|
//! f(x1, ..., xn) == g(x1)...(xn)
|
||
|
//! @endcode
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Currying can be useful in several situations, especially when working
|
||
|
//! with higher-order functions.
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! This `curry` utility is an implementation of currying in C++.
|
||
|
//! Specifically, `curry<n>(f)` is a function such that
|
||
|
//! @code
|
||
|
//! curry<n>(f)(x1)...(xn) == f(x1, ..., xn)
|
||
|
//! @endcode
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Note that the `n` has to be specified explicitly because the existence
|
||
|
//! of functions with variadic arguments in C++ make it impossible to know
|
||
|
//! when currying should stop.
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Unlike usual currying, this implementation also allows a curried
|
||
|
//! function to be called with several arguments at a time. Hence, the
|
||
|
//! following always holds
|
||
|
//! @code
|
||
|
//! curry<n>(f)(x1, ..., xk) == curry<n - k>(f)(x1)...(xk)
|
||
|
//! @endcode
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Of course, this requires `k` to be less than or equal to `n`; failure
|
||
|
//! to satisfy this will trigger a static assertion. This syntax is
|
||
|
//! supported because it makes curried functions usable where normal
|
||
|
//! functions are expected.
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Another "extension" is that `curry<0>(f)` is supported: `curry<0>(f)`
|
||
|
//! is a nullary function; whereas the classical definition for currying
|
||
|
//! seems to leave this case undefined, as nullary functions don't make
|
||
|
//! much sense in purely functional languages.
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//!
|
||
|
//! Example
|
||
|
//! -------
|
||
|
//! @include example/functional/curry.cpp
