@ingroup library
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
This library provides lambda expressions to simplify higher order
programming based on call/N.
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
Lambda expressions are represented by ordinary Prolog terms.
There are two kinds of lambda expressions:
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
~~~~
Free+\X1^X2^ ..^XN^Goal
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
\X1^X2^ ..^XN^Goal
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
~~~~
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
The second is a shorthand for t+\X1^X2^..^XN^Goal
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
+ _Xi_ are the parameters.
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
+ _Goal_ is a goal or continuation. Syntax note: Operators within Goal
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
require parentheses due to the low precedence of the ^ operator.
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
+ _Free_ contains variables that are valid outside the scope of the lambda
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
expression. They are thus free variables within.
All other variables of Goal are considered local variables. They must
not appear outside the lambda expression. This restriction is
currently not checked. Violations may lead to unexpected bindings.
In the following example the parentheses around X>3 are necessary.
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
~~~~~
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
?- use_module(library(lambda)).
?- use_module(library(apply)).
?- maplist(\X^(X>3),[4,5,9]).
true.
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
~~~~~
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
In the following _X_ is a variable that is shared by both instances of
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
the lambda expression. The second query illustrates the cooperation of
continuations and lambdas. The lambda expression is in this case a
continuation expecting a further argument.
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
~~~~~
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
?- Xs = [A,B], maplist(X+\Y^dif(X,Y), Xs).
Xs = [A, B],
dif(X, A),
dif(X, B).
?- Xs = [A,B], maplist(X+\dif(X), Xs).
Xs = [A, B],
dif(X, A),
dif(X, B).
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
~~~~~
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
The following queries are all equivalent. To see this, use
the fact f(x,y).
2014-12-24 15:32:29 +00:00
~~~~~
2010-08-04 23:27:17 +01:00
?- call(f,A1,A2).
?- call(\X^f(X),A1,A2).
?- call(\X^Y^f(X,Y), A1,A2).
?- call(\X^(X+\Y^f(X,Y)), A1,A2).
?- call(call(f, A1),A2).
?- call(f(A1),A2).
?- f(A1,A2).
A1 = x,
A2 = y.
