curry, rcurry

Generate a curried procedure

 

Calling Sequence

Parameters

Description

Examples

Calling Sequence

curry(p)

curry(p, rest)

rcurry(p)

rcurry(p, rest)

Parameters

p

-

procedure or name to be curried

rest

-

(optional) expression sequence of arguments to be curried over

Description

• 

The procedure curry returns a procedure derived from its first argument p by currying on the remaining arguments, if any, in procedure application.

• 

Given a Maple expression f (usually a procedure or a name), the curried procedure curry( f, x1, x2, ..., xn ) is the procedure g for which gt1,t2,...,tm=fx1,x2,...,xn,t1,t2,...,tm. In the case in which n=0, currying on no arguments returns a procedure that calls f.

• 

It is useful for producing a derived procedure from an existing one within the context of other commands such as map, zip, select, remove, and apply.

• 

The procedure rcurry is similar to curry, but curries on the specified arguments from the right of the parameter list.

• 

The definition of currying used here is adapted from "The Haskell 98 Report" ("The Haskell Language Report"), by Simon Peyton Jones, et. al. (http://haskell.org/onlinereport/)
