* unifies the common functionality between `Take` and `Drop`
* renamed `basic.h` to `length.h` as it only contains the `Length` implementation
|
|
* continuation of 8e49cc6
* list constructor was generalized to a _variadic fold_
|
|
* while class templates enable e.g. hiding implementation details they also require evaluation via `Eval`
** this clutters up the actual logic and is now hidden behind aliae that perform the evaluation
|
|
* replaces `typename *::type` constructs with `Eval` applications
* aims to further unify function evaluation
|
|
* moved internals into separate header i.e. the `detail` namespace relating to `Apply`
* implemented automatic alias selection by implementing aliae of the basic variadic `type` template alias in different base classes
** variadic partial application is implemented in `detail::apply_variadic`
*** `detail::apply_single` and `detail::apply_pair` define aliae to `detail::apply_variadic`'s `type` template alias
*** both restricted aliae derive from `detail::apply_variadic`
** `Apply` derives from any of the aliae defining base classes depending on the count of placeholders as determined by `detail::count_placeholders`
*** `Apply` is guaranteed to always be derived from `detail::apply_variadic` one way or the other
* changed functions, test cases and examples depending on `Apply` accordingly
** `Length` had to be reimplemented without `Apply` as it doesn't allow usage of aliae expecting a different count of arguments anymore
*** this is a advantage in the sense that core functionality of _TypeAsValue_ now doesn't depend on this complex partial application implementation anymore
*** such functionality may be reimplemented separately from `Apply`
* removed unnecessary `tav` namespace prefixes
|
|
* this is analogous to _Scheme_ where a pair (dot-expression) is returned from a call to `cons`
* `Head` and `Tail` are kept as direct references to the `CAR` and `CDR` values of a pair to match e.g. the math operators
|
|
* this function illustrates the use case `Apply` is currently intended for
* moved `Take` and `Nth` into separate files to resolve header resolution conflicts
|
|
* as its name implies this _function_ only returns elements which evaluate to _true_ when passed to a given _function_
** this marks the moment where _TypeAsValue_ supports something _ConstList_ does not, i.e. primary goal is achieved
*** namely returning different types depending on the actual _values_ of a _Cons_ structure
* added appropriate test case
|
|
* as its name implies this _function_ applies a given _function_ to each element of a _Cons_ structure
* added appropriate test case
|
|
* this removes the need for maintaining a partial overload of `Length`
* the recursive traversion of the _Cons_ structure is now implemented by `Fold` instead of needlessly duplicating it
|
|
* partial specializations offer control over lazy type instantiation
** `If` is currently only a `std::conditional` wrapper and requires further refinement to be really useful for this kind of use case
|
|
* as its name implies this function _takes_ a maximum of _Count_ elements of a list
* added appropriate test case
|
|
* as its name implies this function returns the _nth_ value of a given _Cons_ structure
* added appropriate test case
