Currently paying the price of months of non-diligent git usage. Here's what has changed. - Theming support in Gvcci and wpgtk - Dropping support for i3 - Supporting EXWM - Many Elisp modules - Collapsed redundant directories in ./configs

;;; vector.el --- Working with Elisp's Vector data type -*- lexical-binding: t -*-

;; Author: William Carroll <wpcarro@gmail.com>

;;; Commentary:
|
|
;; It might be best to think of Elisp vectors as tuples in languages like
|
|
;; Haskell or Erlang.
|
|
;;
|
|
;; Not surprisingly, this API is modelled after Elixir's Tuple API.
|
|
;;
|
|
;; Some Elisp trivia:
|
|
;; - "Array": Usually means vector or string.
|
|
;; - "Sequence": Usually means list or "array" (see above).
|
|
;;
|
|
;; It might be a good idea to think of Array and Sequence as typeclasses in
|
|
;; Elisp. This is perhaps more similar to Elixir's notion of the Enum protocol.
|
|
;;
|
|
;; Intentionally not supporting a to-list function, because tuples can contain
|
|
;; heterogenous types whereas lists should contain homogenous types.
