++aftr

Pair after

+aftr first takes gate a, producing a wet gate. The new wet gate then takes b, producing the inverted pair of [b a]. This is the inverted version of +fore.

Accepts

a is a gate, and the sample of +aftr.

b is a gate, and the sample of (aftr a).

Produces

(pair b a).

Source

++ aftr |*(a=$-(* *) |*(b=$-(* *) (pair b a)))

Examples

> =a (aftr @ud)
> `(a @t)`['foo' 42]
[p='foo' q=42]

++cork

Compose forward

Call gate a, then call gate b with its product.

This is a wet gate that takes two gates and produces a new gate.

This is the inverse of ++corl.

Accepts

a is a gate.

b is a gate.

Source

++ cork |*([a=$-(* *) b=$-(* *)] (corl b a))

Examples

> ((cork dec |=(a=@ [a a])) 20)
[19 19]
> ((cork dec some) 20)
[~ u=19]

++corl

Compose backward

Call gate b, then call gate a with its product.

This is a wet gate that takes two gates and produces a new gate.

This is the inverse of ++cork.

Accepts

a is a gate.

b is a gate.

Source

++ corl
|* [a=$-(* *) b=$-(* *)]
=< +:|.((a (b))) :: type check
=+ c=+<.b
|@ ++ $ (a (b c))
--

Examples

> ((corl |=(a=@ [a a]) dec) 20)
[19 19]
> ((corl some dec) 20)
[~ u=19]

++curr

Right curry

Right-curry a gate, binding the tail of its sample

Accepts

a is a gate.

c is a noun.

Produces

A gate.

Source

++ curr
|* [a=$-(^ *) c=*]
=+ b=+<+.a
|@ ++ $ (a b c)
--

Examples

> =tep (curr scan sym)
> `@t`(tep "asd")
'asd'
> `@t`(tep "lek-om")
'lek-om'

++cury

Curry left

Curry a gate, binding the head of its sample

Accepts

a is a gate.

b is a noun.

Produces

A gate.

Source

++ cury
|* [a=$-(^ *) b=*]
=+ c=+<+.a
|@ ++ $ (a b c)
--

Examples

> =mol (cury add 2)
> (mol 4)
6
> (mol 7)
9

++fore

Pair before

+fore first takes gate a, producing a wet gate. The new wet gate then takes b, producing the pair of [a b].

Accepts

a is a gate, and is the sample of +fore.

b is a gate, and is the sample of (fore a).

Produces

(pair a b).

Source

++ fore |*(a=$-(* *) |*(b=$-(* *) (pair a b)))

Examples

> =a (fore @ud)
> `(a @t)`[42 'foo']
[p=42 q='foo']

Get head

Produces the head of a cell.

Accepts

A cell.

Produces

A noun.

Source

++ head |*(^ ,:+<-)

Examples

> (head [1 2])
1
> (head [[1 1] 2])
[1 1]
> (head "hello")
'h'

++same

Identity

Produces the same value that it was given.

Accepts

A noun.

Produces

A noun.

Source

++ same |*(* +<)

Examples

> (same [1 2])
[1 2]
> (same [[1 1] 2])
[[1 1] 2]
> (same "hello")
"hello"

++succ

Successor

Increment an atom.

Accepts

An atom.

Produces

An atom.

Source

++ succ |=(@ +(+<))

Examples

> (succ 1)
2

++tail

Get tail

Produces the tail of a cell.

Accepts

A cell.

Produces

A noun.

Source

++ tail |*(^ ,:+<+)

Examples

> (tail [1 2])
2
> (tail [[1 1] 2])
2
> (tail "hello")
"ello"

++test

Test for equality

Checks if a and b are equal, producing a flag.

Accepts

a is a noun.

b is a noun.

Produces

A flag.

Source

++ test |=(^ =(+<- +<+))

Examples

> (test 1 1)
%.y
> (test [2 0] 2)
%.n
> (test "hello" 'hello')
%.n
> (test "hello" ['h' 'e' 'l' 'l' 'o' ~])
%.y

++lead

Put head

(lead a) produces a wet gate, then ((lead a) b) produces [a b].

Accepts

a is a noun, and is the sample of +lead.

b is a noun, and is the sample of ((lead a) b)

Produces

A cell of [a b].

Source

++ lead |*(* |*(* [+>+< +<]))

Examples

> =a (lead 'foo')
> (a 'bar')
['foo' 'bar']
