Installation
************

Dash is available on GNU ELPA (https://elpa.gnu.org/), GNU-devel ELPA (https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/), and MELPA (https://melpa.org/), and can be installed with the standard command package-install (see Package Installation (The GNU Emacs Manual)).

M-x package-install RET dash RET
     Install the Dash library.

Alternatively, you can just dump dash.el in your load-path somewhere (see Lisp Libraries (The GNU Emacs Manual)).

Using in a package
==================

If you use Dash in your own package, be sure to list it as a dependency in the library's headers as follows (see Library Headers (The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual)).

     ;; Package-Requires: ((dash "2.19.1"))

Fontification of special variables
==================================

The autoloaded minor mode dash-fontify-mode is provided for optional fontification of anaphoric Dash variables (it, acc, etc.) in Emacs Lisp buffers using search-based Font Lock (see Font Lock (The GNU Emacs Manual)).  In older Emacs versions which do not dynamically detect macros, the minor mode also fontifies calls to Dash macros.

To automatically enable the minor mode in all Emacs Lisp buffers, just call its autoloaded global counterpart global-dash-fontify-mode, either interactively or from your user-init-file:

     (global-dash-fontify-mode)

Info symbol lookup
==================

While editing Elisp files, you can use C-h S (info-lookup-symbol) to look up Elisp symbols in the relevant Info manuals (see Info Lookup (The GNU Emacs Manual)).  To enable the same for Dash symbols, use the command dash-register-info-lookup.  It can be called directly when needed, or automatically from your user-init-file.  For example:

     (with-eval-after-load 'info-look
       (dash-register-info-lookup))

Functions
*********

This chapter contains reference documentation for the Dash API (Application Programming Interface).  The names of all public functions defined in the library are prefixed with a dash character (-).

The library also provides anaphoric macro versions of functions where that makes sense.  The names of these macros are prefixed with two dashes (--) instead of one.

For instance, while the function -map applies a function to each element of a list, its anaphoric counterpart --map evaluates a form with the local variable it temporarily bound to the current list element instead.

     ;; Normal version.
     (-map (lambda (n) (* n n)) '(1 2 3 4))
         => (1 4 9 16)

     ;; Anaphoric version.
     (--map (* it it) '(1 2 3 4))
         => (1 4 9 16)

The normal version can, of course, also be written as in the following example, which demonstrates the utility of both versions.

     (defun my-square (n)
       "Return N multiplied by itself."
       (* n n))

     (-map #'my-square '(1 2 3 4))
         => (1 4 9 16)

Maps
====

Functions in this category take a transforming function, which is then applied sequentially to each or selected elements of the input list.  The results are collected in order and returned as a new list.

 -- Function: -map (fn list)
     Apply FN to each item in LIST and return the list of results.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --map.

          (-map (lambda (num) (* num num)) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 4 9 16)

          (-map #'1+ '(1 2 3 4))
              => (2 3 4 5)

          (--map (* it it) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 4 9 16)

 -- Function: -map-when (pred rep list)
     Return a new list where the elements in LIST that do not match the PRED function are unchanged, and where the elements in LIST that do match the PRED function are mapped through the REP function.

     Alias: -replace-where

     See also: -update-at (see -update-at)

          (-map-when 'even? 'square '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 4 3 16)

          (--map-when (> it 2) (* it it) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 2 9 16)

          (--map-when (= it 2) 17 '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 17 3 4)

 -- Function: -map-first (pred rep list)
     Replace first item in LIST satisfying PRED with result of REP called on this item.

     See also: -map-when (see -map-when), -replace-first (see -replace-first)

          (-map-first 'even? 'square '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 4 3 4)

          (--map-first (> it 2) (* it it) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 2 9 4)

          (--map-first (= it 2) 17 '(1 2 3 2))
              => (1 17 3 2)

 -- Function: -map-last (pred rep list)
     Replace last item in LIST satisfying PRED with result of REP called on this item.

     See also: -map-when (see -map-when), -replace-last (see -replace-last)

          (-map-last 'even? 'square '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 2 3 16)

          (--map-last (> it 2) (* it it) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 2 3 16)

          (--map-last (= it 2) 17 '(1 2 3 2))
              => (1 2 3 17)

 -- Function: -map-indexed (fn list)
     Apply FN to each index and item in LIST and return the list of results. This is like -map (see -map), but FN takes two arguments: the index of the current element within LIST, and the element itself.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --map-indexed.

     For a side-effecting variant, see also -each-indexed (see -each-indexed).

          (-map-indexed (lambda (index item) (- item index)) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 1 1 1)

          (--map-indexed (- it it-index) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 1 1 1)

          (-map-indexed #'* '(1 2 3 4))
              => (0 2 6 12)

 -- Function: -annotate (fn list)
     Return a list of cons cells where each cell is FN applied to each element of LIST paired with the unmodified element of LIST.

          (-annotate '1+ '(1 2 3))
              => ((2 . 1) (3 . 2) (4 . 3))

          (-annotate 'length '(("h" "e" "l" "l" "o") ("hello" "world")))
              => ((5 "h" "e" "l" "l" "o") (2 "hello" "world"))

          (--annotate (< 1 it) '(0 1 2 3))
              => ((nil . 0) (nil . 1) (t . 2) (t . 3))

 -- Function: -splice (pred fun list)
     Splice lists generated by FUN in place of elements matching PRED in LIST.

     FUN takes the element matching PRED as input.

     This function can be used as replacement for ,@ in case you need to splice several lists at marked positions (for example with keywords).

     See also: -splice-list (see -splice-list), -insert-at (see -insert-at)

          (-splice 'even? (lambda (x) (list x x)) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 2 2 3 4 4)

          (--splice 't (list it it) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4)

          (--splice (equal it :magic) '((list of) (magical) (code)) '((foo) (bar) :magic (baz)))
              => ((foo) (bar) (list of) (magical) (code) (baz))

 -- Function: -splice-list (pred new-list list)
     Splice NEW-LIST in place of elements matching PRED in LIST.

     See also: -splice (see -splice), -insert-at (see -insert-at)

          (-splice-list 'keywordp '(a b c) '(1 :foo 2))
              => (1 a b c 2)

          (-splice-list 'keywordp nil '(1 :foo 2))
              => (1 2)

          (--splice-list (keywordp it) '(a b c) '(1 :foo 2))
              => (1 a b c 2)

 -- Function: -mapcat (fn list)
     Return the concatenation of the result of mapping FN over LIST. Thus function FN should return a list.

          (-mapcat 'list '(1 2 3))
              => (1 2 3)

          (-mapcat (lambda (item) (list 0 item)) '(1 2 3))
              => (0 1 0 2 0 3)

          (--mapcat (list 0 it) '(1 2 3))
              => (0 1 0 2 0 3)

 -- Function: -copy (list)
     Create a shallow copy of LIST.

          (-copy '(1 2 3))
              => (1 2 3)

          (let ((a '(1 2 3))) (eq a (-copy a)))
              => nil

Sublist selection
=================

Functions returning a sublist of the original list.

 -- Function: -filter (pred list)
     Return a new list of the items in LIST for which PRED returns non-nil.

     Alias: -select.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --filter.

     For similar operations, see also -keep (see -keep) and -remove (see -remove).

          (-filter (lambda (num) (= 0 (% num 2))) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (2 4)

          (-filter #'natnump '(-2 -1 0 1 2))
              => (0 1 2)

          (--filter (= 0 (% it 2)) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (2 4)

 -- Function: -remove (pred list)
     Return a new list of the items in LIST for which PRED returns nil.

     Alias: -reject.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --remove.

          (-remove #'natnump '(-2 -1 0 1 2))
              => (-2 -1)

          (--remove (= 0 (% it 2)) '(1 2 3 4))
              => (1 3)

 -- Function: -remove-first (pred list)
     Remove the first item from LIST for which PRED returns non-nil. This is a non-destructive operation, but only the front of LIST leading up to the removed item is a copy; the rest is LIST's original tail.  If no item is removed, then the result is a complete copy.

     Alias: -reject-first.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --remove-first.

     See also -map-first (see -map-first), -remove-item (see -remove-item), and -remove-last (see -remove-last).

          (-remove-first #'natnump '(-2 -1 0 1 2))
              => (-2 -1 1 2)

          (-remove-first #'stringp '(1 2 "first" "second"))
              => (1 2 "second")

          (--remove-first (> it 3) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))
              => (1 2 3 5 6)

 -- Function: -remove-last (pred list)
     Remove the last item from LIST for which PRED returns non-nil. The result is a copy of LIST regardless of whether an element is removed.

     Alias: -reject-last.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --remove-last.

     See also -map-last (see -map-last), -remove-item (see -remove-item), and -remove-first (see -remove-first).

              => (1 2 "last")

          (--remove-last (> it 3) '(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10))
              => (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)

 -- Function: -remove-item (item list)
     Return a copy of LIST with all occurrences of ITEM removed. The comparison is done with equal.

          (-remove-item 3 '(1 2 3 2 3 4 5 3))
              => (1 2 2 4 5)

              => (bar baz)

          (-remove-item "bob" '("alice" "bob" "eve" "bob"))
              => ("alice" "eve")

 -- Function: -non-nil (list)
     Return a copy of LIST with all nil items removed.

          (-non-nil '(nil 1 nil 2 nil nil 3 4 nil 5 nil))
              => (1 2 3 4 5)

          (-non-nil '((nil)))
              => ((nil))

          (-non-nil ())
              => ()

 -- Function: -slice (list from &optional to step)
     Return copy of LIST, starting from index FROM to index TO.

     FROM or TO may be negative.  These values are then interpreted modulo the length of the list.

     If STEP is a number, only each STEPth item in the resulting section is returned.  Defaults to 1.

          (-slice '(1 2 3 4 5) 1)
              => (2 3 4 5)

              => (1 2 3 4 5)

 -- Function: -take-while (pred list)
     Take successive items from LIST for which PRED returns non-nil. PRED is a function of one argument.  Return a new list of the successive elements from the start of LIST for which PRED returns non-nil.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --take-while.

 -- Function: -select-columns (columns table)
     Select COLUMNS from TABLE.

     TABLE is a list of lists where each element represents one row. It is assumed each row has the same length.

     Each row is transformed such that only the specified COLUMNS are selected.

     See also: -select-column (see -select-column), -select-by-indices (see -select-by-indices)

          (-select-columns '(0 2) '((1 2 3) (a b c) (:a :b :c)))
              => ((1 3) (a c) (:a :c))

 -- Function: -select-column (column table)
     Select COLUMN from TABLE.

     TABLE is a list of lists where each element represents one row. It is assumed each row has the same length.

     The single selected column is returned as a list.

     See also: -select-columns (see -select-columns), -select-by-indices (see -select-by-indices)

          (-select-column 1 '((1 2 3) (a b c) (:a :b :c)))
              => (2 b :b)

List to list
============

Functions returning a modified copy of the input list.

 -- Function: -keep (fn list)
     Return a new list of the non-nil results of applying FN to each item in LIST. Like -filter (see -filter), but returns the non-nil results of FN instead of the corresponding elements of LIST.

     Its anaphoric counterpart is --keep.

          (-keep #'cdr '((1 2 3) (4 5) (6)))
              => ((2 3) (5))

          (-keep (lambda (n) (and (> n 3) (* 10 n))) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))
              => (40 50 60)

          (--keep (and (> it 3) (* 10 it)) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))
              => (40 50 60)

 -- Function: -concat (&rest lists)
     Return a new list with the concatenation of the elements in the supplied LISTS.

          (-concat '(1))
              => (1)

          (-concat '(1) '(2))
              => (1 2)

          (-concat '(1) '(2 3) '(4))
              => (1 2 3 4)

 -- Function: -flatten (l)
     Take a nested list L and return its contents as a single, flat list.

     Note that because nil represents a list of zero elements (an empty list), any mention of nil in L will disappear after flattening.  If you need to preserve nils, consider -flatten-n (see -flatten-n) or map them to some unique symbol and then map them back.

     Conses of two atoms are considered "terminals", that is, they aren't flattened further.

     See also: -flatten-n (see -flatten-n)

          (-flatten '((1)))
              => (1)

          (-flatten '((1 (2 3) (((4 (5)))))))
              => (1 2 3 4 5)

          (-flatten '(1 2 (3 . 4)))
              => (1 2 (3 . 4))

 -- Function: -flatten-n (num list)
     Flatten NUM levels of a nested LIST.

     See also: -flatten (see -flatten)

          (-flatten-n 1 '((1 2) ((3 4) ((5 6)))))
              => (1 2 (3 4) ((5 6)))

          (-flatten-n 2 '((1 2) ((3 4) ((5 6)))))

Reductions
==========

Functions reducing lists to a single value (which may also be a list).

 -- Function: -reduce-from (fn init list)
     Reduce the function FN across LIST, starting with INIT. Return the result of applying FN to INIT and the first element of LIST, then applying FN to that result and the second element, etc.  If LIST is empty, return INIT without calling FN.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --reduce-from.

     For other folds, see also -reduce (see -reduce) and -reduce-r (see -reduce-r).

          (-reduce-from #'- 10 '(1 2 3))
              => 4

          (-reduce-from #'list 10 '(1 2 3))
              => (((10 1) 2) 3)

          (--reduce-from (concat acc " " it) "START" '("a" "b" "c"))
              => "START a b c"

 -- Function: -reduce-r-from (fn init list)
     Reduce the function FN across LIST in reverse, starting with INIT. Return the result of applying FN to the last element of LIST and INIT, then applying FN to the second-to-last element and the previous result of FN, etc.  That is, the first argument of FN is the current element, and its second argument the accumulated value.  If LIST is empty, return INIT without calling FN.

     This function is like -reduce-from (see -reduce-from) but the operation associates from the right rather than left.  In other words, it starts from the end of LIST and flips the arguments to FN.  Conceptually, it is like replacing the conses in LIST with applications of FN, and its last link with INIT, and evaluating the resulting expression.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --reduce-r-from.

     For other folds, see also -reduce-r (see -reduce-r) and -reduce (see -reduce).

          (-reduce-r-from #'- 10 '(1 2 3))

 -- Function: -reduce (fn list)
     Reduce the function FN across LIST. Return the result of applying FN to the first two elements of LIST, then applying FN to that result and the third element, etc. If LIST contains a single element, return it without calling FN. If LIST is empty, return the result of calling FN with no arguments.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --reduce.

     For other folds, see also -reduce-from (see -reduce-from) and -reduce-r (see -reduce-r).

          (-reduce #'- '(1 2 3 4))

              => "1-2-3"

 -- Function: -reduce-r (fn list)
     Reduce the function FN across LIST in reverse. Return the result of applying FN to the last two elements of LIST, then applying FN to the third-to-last element and the previous result of FN, etc.  That is, the first argument of FN is the current element, and its second argument the accumulated value.  If LIST contains a single element, return it without calling FN.  If LIST is empty, return the result of calling FN with no arguments.

     This function is like -reduce (see -reduce) but the operation associates from the right rather than left.  In other words, it starts from the end of LIST and flips the arguments to FN.  Conceptually, it is like replacing the conses in LIST with applications of FN, ignoring its last link, and evaluating the resulting expression.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --reduce-r.

 -- Function: -reductions-from (fn init list)
     Return a list of FN's intermediate reductions across LIST. That is, a list of the intermediate values of the accumulator when -reduce-from (see -reduce-from) (which see) is called with the same arguments.

Unfolding
=========

Operations dual to reductions, building lists from a seed value rather than consuming a list to produce a single value.

 -- Function: -iterate (fun init n)
     Return a list of iterated applications of FUN to INIT.

     This means a list of the form:

     (INIT (FUN INIT) (FUN (FUN INIT)) ...)

     N is the length of the returned list.

          (-iterate #'1+ 1 10)
              => (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10)

          (-iterate (lambda (x) (+ x x)) 2 5)
              => (2 4 8 16 32)

              => (2 4 16 256 65536)

 -- Function: -unfold (fun seed)
     Build a list from SEED using FUN.

     This is "dual" operation to -reduce-r (see -reduce-r): while -reduce-r consumes a list to produce a single value, -unfold (see -unfold) takes a seed value and builds a (potentially infinite!) list.

     FUN should return nil to stop the generating process, or a cons (A . B), where A will be prepended to the result and B is the new seed.

          (-unfold (lambda (x) (unless (= x 0) (cons x (1- x)))) 10)
              => (10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1)

          (--unfold (when it (cons it (cdr it))) '(1 2 3 4))
              => ((1 2 3 4) (2 3 4) (3 4) (4))

          (--unfold (when it (cons it (butlast it))) '(1 2 3 4))
              => ((1 2 3 4) (1 2 3) (1 2) (1))

Predicates
==========

Reductions of one or more lists to a boolean value.

 -- Function: -some (pred list)
     Return (PRED x) for the first LIST item where (PRED x) is non-nil, else nil.

     Alias: -any.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --some.

          (-some #'stringp '(1 "2" 3))
              => t

          (--some (string-match-p "x" it) '("foo" "axe" "xor"))
              => 1

          (--some (= it-index 3) '(0 1 2))
              => nil

 -- Function: -every (pred list)
     Return non-nil if PRED returns non-nil for all items in LIST. If so, return the last such result of PRED.  Otherwise, once an item is reached for which PRED returns nil, return nil without calling PRED on any further LIST elements.

     This function is like -every-p, but on success returns the last non-nil result of PRED instead of just t.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --every.

          (-every #'numberp '(1 2 3))
              => t

          (--every (string-match-p "x" it) '("axe" "xor"))
              => 0

          (--every (= it it-index) '(0 1 3))
              => nil

 -- Function: -any? (pred list)
     Return t if (PRED x) is non-nil for any x in LIST, else nil.

     Alias: -any-p, -some?, -some-p

          (-any? #'numberp '(nil 0 t))
              => t

          (-any? #'numberp '(nil t t))
              => nil

          (-any? #'null '(1 3 5))
              => nil

 -- Function: -all? (pred list)
     Return t if (PRED X) is non-nil for all X in LIST, else nil. In the latter case, stop after the first X for which (PRED X) is nil, without calling PRED on any subsequent elements of LIST.

     The similar function -every (see -every) is more widely useful, since it returns the last non-nil result of PRED instead of just t on success.

     Alias: -all-p, -every-p, -every?.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --all?.

          (-all? #'numberp '(1 2 3))

Partitioning
============

 -- Function: -split-at (n list)
     Split LIST into two sublists after the Nth element. The result is a list of two elements (TAKE DROP) where TAKE is a new list of the first N elements of LIST, and DROP is the remaining elements of LIST (not a copy).

          (-rotate -3 '(1 2 3 4 5 6 7))
              => (4 5 6 7 1 2 3)

          (-rotate 16 '(1 2 3 4 5 6 7))
              => (6 7 1 2 3 4 5)

 -- Function: -repeat (n x)
     Return a new list of length N with each element being X. Return nil if N is less than 1.

          (-repeat 3 :a)
              => (:a :a :a)

          (-repeat 1 :a)
              => (:a)

          (-repeat 0 :a)
              => nil

 -- Function: -cons* (&rest args)
     Make a new list from the elements of ARGS. The last 2 elements of ARGS are used as the final cons of the result, so if the final element of ARGS is not a list, the result is a dotted list.  With no ARGS, return nil.

          (-cons* 1 2)
              => (1 . 2)

          (-cons* 1 2 3)
              => (1 2 . 3)

          (-cons* 1)
              => 1

 -- Function: -snoc (list elem &rest elements)
     Append ELEM to the end of the list.

     This is like cons, but operates on the end of list.

     If ELEMENTS is non nil, append these to the list as well.

          (-snoc '(1 2 3) 4)
              => (1 2 3 4)

          (-snoc '(1 2 3) 4 5 6)
              => (1 2 3 4 5 6)

          (-snoc '(1 2 3) '(4 5 6))
              => (1 2 3 (4 5 6))

 -- Function: -interpose (sep list)
     Return a new list of all elements in LIST separated by SEP.

          (-interpose "-" ())
              => ()

          (-interpose "-" '("a"))
              => ("a")

          (-interpose "-" '("a" "b" "c"))
              => ("a" "-" "b" "-" "c")

 -- Function: -interleave (&rest lists)
     Return a new list of the first item in each list, then the second etc.

          (-interleave '(1 2) '("a" "b"))
              => (1 "a" 2 "b")

          (-interleave '(1 2) '("a" "b") '("A" "B"))
              => (1 "a" "A" 2 "b" "B")

          (-interleave '(1 2 3) '("a" "b"))
              => (1 "a" 2 "b")

 -- Function: -iota (count &optional start step)
     Return a list containing COUNT numbers. Starts from START and adds STEP each time.  The default START is zero, the default STEP is 1. This function takes its name from the corresponding primitive in the APL language.

          (-iota 6)
              => (0 1 2 3 4 5)

          (-iota 4 2.5 -2)
              => (2.5 0.5 -1.5 -3.5)

          (-iota -1)
              error--> Wrong type argument: natnump, -1

 -- Function: -zip-with (fn list1 list2)
     Zip the two lists LIST1 and LIST2 using a function FN.  This function is applied pairwise taking as first argument element of LIST1 and as second argument element of LIST2 at corresponding position.

     The anaphoric form --zip-with binds the elements from LIST1 as symbol it, and the elements from LIST2 as symbol other.

          (-zip-with '+ '(1 2 3) '(4 5 6))
              => (5 7 9)

          (-zip-with 'cons '(1 2 3) '(4 5 6))
              => ((1 . 4) (2 . 5) (3 . 6))

          (--zip-with (concat it " and " other) '("Batman" "Jekyll") '("Robin" "Hyde"))
              => ("Batman and Robin" "Jekyll and Hyde")

 -- Function: -zip (&rest lists)
     Zip LISTS together.  Group the head of each list, followed by the second elements of each list, and so on. The lengths of the returned groupings are equal to the length of the shortest input list.

     If two lists are provided as arguments, return the groupings as a list of cons cells. Otherwise, return the groupings as a list of lists.

     Use -zip-lists (see -zip-lists) if you need the return value to always be a list of lists.

     Alias: -zip-pair

     See also: -zip-lists (see -zip-lists)

          (-zip '(1 2 3) '(4 5 6))
              => ((1 . 4) (2 . 5) (3 . 6))

          (-zip '(1 2 3) '(4 5 6 7))
              => ((1 . 4) (2 . 5) (3 . 6))

          (-zip '(1 2) '(3 4 5) '(6))
              => ((1 3 6))

 -- Function: -zip-lists (&rest lists)
     Zip LISTS together.  Group the head of each list, followed by the second elements of each list, and so on. The lengths of the returned groupings are equal to the length of the shortest input list.

     The return value is always list of lists, which is a difference from -zip-pair which returns a cons-cell in case two input lists are provided.

     See also: -zip (see -zip)

          (-zip-lists '(1 2 3) '(4 5 6))
              => ((1 4) (2 5) (3 6))

          (-zip-lists '(1 2 3) '(4 5 6 7))
              => ((1 4) (2 5) (3 6))

          (-zip-lists '(1 2) '(3 4 5) '(6))
              => ((1 3 6))

 -- Function: -zip-fill (fill-value &rest lists)
     Zip LISTS, with FILL-VALUE padded onto the shorter lists. The lengths of the returned groupings are equal to the length of the longest input list.

          (-zip-fill 0 '(1 2 3 4 5) '(6 7 8 9))
              => ((1 . 6) (2 . 7) (3 . 8) (4 . 9) (5 . 0))

 -- Function: -unzip (lists)
     Unzip LISTS.

     This works just like -zip (see -zip) but takes a list of lists instead of a variable number of arguments, such that

     (-unzip (-zip L1 L2 L3 ...))

     is identity (given that the lists are the same length).

     Note in particular that calling this on a list of two lists will return a list of cons-cells such that the above identity works.

     See also: -zip (see -zip)

          (-unzip (-zip '(1 2 3) '(a b c) '("e" "f" "g")))
              => ((1 2 3) (a b c) ("e" "f" "g"))

          (-unzip '((1 2) (3 4) (5 6) (7 8) (9 10)))
              => ((1 3 5 7 9) (2 4 6 8 10))

          (-unzip '((1 2) (3 4)))
              => ((1 . 3) (2 . 4))

 -- Function: -cycle (list)
     Return an infinite circular copy of LIST. The returned list cycles through the elements of LIST and repeats from the beginning.

          (-take 5 (-cycle '(1 2 3)))
              => (1 2 3 1 2)

          (-take 7 (-cycle '(1 "and" 3)))
              => (1 "and" 3 1 "and" 3 1)

          (-zip (-cycle '(1 2 3)) '(1 2))
              => ((1 . 1) (2 . 2))

 -- Function: -pad (fill-value &rest lists)
     Appends FILL-VALUE to the end of each list in LISTS such that they will all have the same length.

          (-pad 0 ())
              => (nil)

          (-pad 0 '(1))
              => ((1))

          (-pad 0 '(1 2 3) '(4 5))
              => ((1 2 3) (4 5 0))

 -- Function: -table (fn &rest lists)
     Compute outer product of LISTS using function FN.

     The function FN should have the same arity as the number of supplied lists.

     The outer product is computed by applying fn to all possible combinations created by taking one element from each list in order.  The dimension of the result is (length lists).

     See also: -table-flat (see -table-flat)

          (-table '* '(1 2 3) '(1 2 3))
              => ((1 2 3) (2 4 6) (3 6 9))

          (-table (lambda (a b) (-sum (-zip-with '* a b))) '((1 2) (3 4)) '((1 3) (2 4)))
              => ((7 15) (10 22))

          (apply '-table 'list (-repeat 3 '(1 2)))
              => ((((1 1 1) (2 1 1)) ((1 2 1) (2 2 1))) (((1 1 2) (2 1 2)) ((1 2 2) (2 2 2))))

 -- Function: -table-flat (fn &rest lists)
     Compute flat outer product of LISTS using function FN.

     The function FN should have the same arity as the number of supplied lists.

     The outer product is computed by applying fn to all possible combinations created by taking one element from each list in order.  The results are flattened, ignoring the tensor structure of the result.  This is equivalent to calling:

     (-flatten-n (1- (length lists)) (apply '-table fn lists))

     but the implementation here is much more efficient.

     See also: -flatten-n (see -flatten-n), -table (see -table)

          (-table-flat 'list '(1 2 3) '(a b c))
              => ((1 a) (2 a) (3 a) (1 b) (2 b) (3 b) (1 c) (2 c) (3 c))

          (-table-flat '* '(1 2 3) '(1 2 3))
              => (1 2 3 2 4 6 3 6 9)

          (apply '-table-flat 'list (-repeat 3 '(1 2)))
              => ((1 1 1) (2 1 1) (1 2 1) (2 2 1) (1 1 2) (2 1 2) (1 2 2) (2 2 2))

 -- Function: -first (pred list)
     Return the first item in LIST for which PRED returns non-nil. Return nil if no such element is found. To get the first item in the list no questions asked, use car.

     Alias: -find.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --first.

          (-first #'natnump '(-1 0 1))
              => 0

          (-first #'null '(1 2 3))
              => nil

          (--first (> it 2) '(1 2 3))
              => 3

 -- Function: -last (pred list)

          (-last 'even? '(1 2 3 4 5 6 3 3 3))
              => 6

          (-last 'even? '(1 3 7 5 9))
              => nil

          (--last (> (length it) 3) '("a" "looong" "word" "and" "short" "one"))
              => "short"

 -- Function: -first-item (list)
     Return the first item of LIST, or nil on an empty list.

     See also: -second-item (see -second-item), -last-item (see -last-item).

          (-first-item '(1 2 3))
              => 1

          (-first-item nil)
              => nil

          (let ((list (list 1 2 3))) (setf (-first-item list) 5) list)
              => (5 2 3)

 -- Function: -second-item (list)
     Return the second item of LIST, or nil if LIST is too short.

     See also: -third-item (see -third-item).

          (-second-item '(1 2 3))
              => 2

          (-second-item nil)
              => nil

 -- Function: -third-item (list)
     Return the third item of LIST, or nil if LIST is too short.

     See also: -fourth-item (see -fourth-item).

          (-third-item nil)
              => nil

 -- Function: -fourth-item (list)
     Return the fourth item of LIST, or nil if LIST is too short.

     See also: -fifth-item (see -fifth-item).

          (-fourth-item '(1 2 3 4))
              => 4

          (-fourth-item nil)
              => nil

 -- Function: -fifth-item (list)
     Return the fifth item of LIST, or nil if LIST is too short.

     See also: -last-item (see -last-item).

          (-fifth-item '(1 2 3 4 5))
              => 5

          (-fifth-item nil)
              => nil

 -- Function: -last-item (list)
     Return the last item of LIST, or nil on an empty list.

          (-last-item '(1 2 3))
              => 3

          (-last-item nil)
              => nil

          (let ((list (list 1 2 3))) (setf (-last-item list) 5) list)
              => (1 2 5)

 -- Function: -butlast (list)
     Return a list of all items in list except for the last.

              => (1)

          (-butlast '(1))
              => nil

 -- Function: -sort (comparator list)
     Sort LIST, stably, comparing elements using COMPARATOR. Return the sorted list.  LIST is NOT modified by side effects. COMPARATOR is called with two elements of LIST, and should return non-nil if the first element should sort before the second.

          (-sort '< '(3 1 2))
              => (1 2 3)

          (-sort '> '(3 1 2))

          (--sort (< it other) '(3 1 2))
              => (1 2 3)

 -- Function: -list (arg)
     Ensure ARG is a list. If ARG is already a list, return it as is (not a copy). Otherwise, return a new list with ARG as its only element.

     Another supported calling convention is (-list &rest ARGS). In this case, if ARG is not a list, a new list with all of ARGS as elements is returned.  This use is supported for backward compatibility and is otherwise deprecated.

          (-list 1)
              => (1)

          (-list ())
              => ()

Tree operations
===============

Functions pretending lists are trees.

 -- Function: -tree-seq (branch children tree)
     Return a sequence of the nodes in TREE, in depth-first search order.

     BRANCH is a predicate of one argument that returns non-nil if the passed argument is a branch, that is, a node that can have children.

     CHILDREN is a function of one argument that returns the children of the passed branch node.

     Non-branch nodes are simply copied.

          (-tree-seq 'listp 'identity '(1 (2 3) 4 (5 (6 7))))
              => ((1 (2 3) 4 (5 (6 7))) 1 (2 3) 2 3 4 (5 (6 7)) 5 (6 7) 6 7)

          (-tree-seq 'listp 'reverse '(1 (2 3) 4 (5 (6 7))))
              => ((1 (2 3) 4 (5 (6 7))) (5 (6 7)) (6 7) 7 6 5 4 (2 3) 3 2 1)

 -- Function: -tree-map (fn tree)
     Apply FN to each element of TREE while preserving the tree structure.

          (-tree-map '1+ '(1 (2 3) (4 (5 6) 7)))
              => (2 (3 4) (5 (6 7) 8))

          (-tree-map '(lambda (x) (cons x (expt 2 x))) '(1 (2 3) 4))
              => ((1 . 2) ((2 . 4) (3 . 8)) (4 . 16))

          (--tree-map (length it) '("<body>" ("<p>" "text" "</p>") "</body>"))
              => (6 (3 4 4) 7)

 -- Function: -tree-map-nodes (pred fun tree)
     Call FUN on each node of TREE that satisfies PRED.

     If PRED returns nil, continue descending down this node.  If PRED returns non-nil, apply FUN to this node and do not descend further.

          (-tree-map-nodes 'vectorp (lambda (x) (-sum (append x nil))) '(1 [2 3] 4 (5 [6 7] 8)))
              => (1 5 4 (5 13 8))

          (-tree-map-nodes 'keywordp (lambda (x) (symbol-name x)) '(1 :foo 4 ((5 6 :bar) :baz 8)))
              => (1 ":foo" 4 ((5 6 ":bar") ":baz" 8))

          (--tree-map-nodes (eq (car-safe it) 'add-mode) (-concat it (list :mode 'emacs-lisp-mode)) '(with-mode emacs-lisp-mode (foo bar) (add-mode a b) (baz (add-mode c d))))
              => (with-mode emacs-lisp-mode (foo bar) (add-mode a b :mode emacs-lisp-mode) (baz (add-mode c d :mode emacs-lisp-mode)))

 -- Function: -tree-reduce (fn tree)
     Use FN to reduce elements of list TREE. If elements of TREE are lists themselves, apply the reduction recursively.

     FN is first applied to first element of the list and second element, then on this result and third element from the list etc.

     See -reduce-r (see -reduce-r) for how exactly are lists of zero or one element handled.

          (-tree-reduce '+ '(1 (2 3) (4 5)))
              => 15

          (-tree-reduce 'concat '("strings" (" on" " various") ((" levels"))))

              => "<body><p>some words</p> <div>more <b>bold</b> words</div></body>"

 -- Function: -tree-reduce-from (fn init-value tree)
     Use FN to reduce elements of list TREE. If elements of TREE are lists themselves, apply the reduction recursively.

     FN is first applied to INIT-VALUE and first element of the list, then on this result and second element from the list etc.

     The initial value is ignored on cons pairs as they always contain two elements.

          (-tree-reduce-from '+ 1 '(1 (1 1) ((1))))
              => 8

          (--tree-reduce-from (-concat acc (list it)) nil '(1 (2 3 (4 5)) (6 7)))
              => ((7 6) ((5 4) 3 2) 1)

 -- Function: -tree-mapreduce (fn folder tree)
     Apply FN to each element of TREE, and make a list of the results. If elements of TREE are lists themselves, apply FN recursively to elements of these nested lists.

     Then reduce the resulting lists using FOLDER and initial value INIT-VALUE. See -reduce-r-from (see -reduce-r-from).

     This is the same as calling -tree-reduce (see -tree-reduce) after -tree-map (see -tree-map) but is twice as fast as it only traverse the structure once.

          (-tree-mapreduce 'list 'append '(1 (2 (3 4) (5 6)) (7 (8 9))))
              => (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)

          (--tree-mapreduce 0 (max acc (1+ it)) '(1 (2 (4 9) (2 1)) (7 (4 3))))
              => 3

 -- Function: -tree-mapreduce-from (fn folder init-value tree)
     Apply FN to each element of TREE, and make a list of the results. If elements of TREE are lists themselves, apply FN recursively to elements of these nested lists.

     Then reduce the resulting lists using FOLDER and initial value INIT-VALUE. See -reduce-r-from (see -reduce-r-from).

     This is the same as calling -tree-reduce-from (see -tree-reduce-from) after -tree-map (see -tree-map) but is twice as fast as it only traverse the structure once.

          (-tree-mapreduce-from 'identity '* 1 '(1 (2 (3 4) (5 6)) (7 (8 9))))
              => 362880

          (--tree-mapreduce-from (+ it it) (cons it acc) nil '(1 (2 (4 9) (2 1)) (7 (4 3))))
              => (2 (4 (8 18) (4 2)) (14 (8 6)))

          (concat "{" (--tree-mapreduce-from (cond ((-cons-pair? it) (concat (symbol-name (car it)) " -> " (symbol-name (cdr it)))) (t (concat (symbol-name it) " : {"))) (concat it (unless (or (equal acc "}") (equal (substring it (1- (length it))) "{")) ", ") acc) "}" '((elisp-mode (foo (bar . booze)) (baz . qux)) (c-mode (foo . bla) (bum . bam)))))
              => "{elisp-mode : {foo : {bar -> booze}, baz -> qux}, c-mode : {foo -> bla, bum -> bam}}"

 -- Function: -clone (list)
     Create a deep copy of LIST. The new list has the same elements and structure but all cons are replaced with new ones.  This is useful when you need to clone a structure such as plist or alist.

          (let* ((a '(1 2 3)) (b (-clone a))) (nreverse a) b)
              => (1 2 3)

Threading macros
================

Macros that conditionally combine sequential forms for brevity or readability.

 -- Macro: -> (x &optional form &rest more)
     Thread the expr through the forms. Insert X as the second item in the first form, making a list of it if it is not a list already. If there are more forms, insert the first form as the second item in second form, etc.

          (-> '(2 3 5))
              => (2 3 5)

          (-> '(2 3 5) (append '(8 13)))
              => (2 3 5 8 13)

          (-> '(2 3 5) (append '(8 13)) (-slice 1 -1))
              => (3 5 8)

 -- Macro: ->> (x &optional form &rest more)
     Thread the expr through the forms. Insert X as the last item in the first form, making a list of it if it is not a list already. If there are more forms, insert the first form as the last item in second form, etc.

          (->> '(1 2 3) (-map 'square))
              => (1 4 9)

          (->> '(1 2 3) (-map 'square) (-remove 'even?))
              => (1 9)

          (->> '(1 2 3) (-map 'square) (-reduce '+))
              => 14

 -- Macro: --> (x &rest forms)
     Starting with the value of X, thread each expression through FORMS.

     Insert X at the position signified by the symbol it in the first form.  If there are more forms, insert the first form at the position signified by it in in second form, etc.

          (--> "def" (concat "abc" it "ghi"))
              => "abcdefghi"

          (--> "def" (concat "abc" it "ghi") (upcase it))
              => "ABCDEFGHI"

              => "ABCDEFGHI"

 -- Macro: -as-> (value variable &rest forms)
     Starting with VALUE, thread VARIABLE through FORMS.

     In the first form, bind VARIABLE to VALUE.  In the second form, bind VARIABLE to the result of the first form, and so forth.

          (-as-> 3 my-var (1+ my-var) (list my-var) (mapcar (lambda (ele) (* 2 ele)) my-var))
              => (8)

          (-as-> 3 my-var 1+)
              => 4

          (-as-> 3 my-var)
              => 3

 -- Macro: -some-> (x &optional form &rest more)
     When expr is non-nil, thread it through the first form (via -> (see ->)), and when that result is non-nil, through the next form, etc.

          (-some-> '(2 3 5))
              => (2 3 5)

          (-some-> 5 square)
              => 25

          (-some-> 5 even? square)
              => nil

 -- Macro: -some->> (x &optional form &rest more)
     When expr is non-nil, thread it through the first form (via ->> (see ->>)), and when that result is non-nil, through the next form, etc.

          (-some->> '(1 2 3) (-map 'square))
              => (1 4 9)

          (-some->> '(1 3 5) (-last 'even?) (+ 100))

              => 106

 -- Macro: -some--> (expr &rest forms)
     Thread EXPR through FORMS via --> (see -->), while the result is non-nil. When EXPR evaluates to non-nil, thread the result through the first of FORMS, and when that result is non-nil, thread it through the next form, etc.

          (-some--> "def" (concat "abc" it "ghi"))
              => "abcdefghi"

          (-some--> nil (concat "abc" it "ghi"))
              => nil

          (-some--> '(0 1) (-remove #'natnump it) (append it it) (-map #'1+ it))
              => ()

 -- Macro: -doto (init &rest forms)
     Evaluate INIT and pass it as argument to FORMS with -> (see ->). The RESULT of evaluating INIT is threaded through each of FORMS individually using -> (see ->), which see.  The return value is RESULT, which FORMS may have modified by side effect.

          (-doto (list 1 2 3) pop pop)
              => (3)

          (-doto (cons 1 2) (setcar 3) (setcdr 4))
              => (3 . 4)

          (gethash 'k (--doto (make-hash-table) (puthash 'k 'v it)))
              => v

Binding
=======

Macros that combine let and let* with destructuring and flow control.

 -- Macro: -when-let ((var val) &rest body)
     If VAL evaluates to non-nil, bind it to VAR and execute body.

     Note: binding is done according to -let (see -let).

          (-when-let (match-index (string-match "d" "abcd")) (+ match-index 2))
              => 5

          (-when-let ((&plist :foo foo) (list :foo "foo")) foo)
              => "foo"

          (-when-let ((&plist :foo foo) (list :bar "bar")) foo)
              => nil

 -- Macro: -when-let* (vars-vals &rest body)
     If all VALS evaluate to true, bind them to their corresponding VARS and execute body. VARS-VALS should be a list of (VAR VAL) pairs.

     Note: binding is done according to -let* (see -let*).  VALS are evaluated sequentially, and evaluation stops after the first nil VAL is encountered.

          (-when-let* ((x 5) (y 3) (z (+ y 4))) (+ x y z))
              => 15

          (-when-let* ((x 5) (y nil) (z 7)) (+ x y z))
              => nil

 -- Macro: -if-let ((var val) then &rest else)
     If VAL evaluates to non-nil, bind it to VAR and do THEN, otherwise do ELSE.

     Note: binding is done according to -let (see -let).

          (-if-let (match-index (string-match "d" "abc")) (+ match-index 3) 7)
              => 7

          (--if-let (even? 4) it nil)
              => t

 -- Macro: -if-let* (vars-vals then &rest else)
     If all VALS evaluate to true, bind them to their corresponding VARS and do THEN, otherwise do ELSE. VARS-VALS should be a list of (VAR VAL) pairs.

     Note: binding is done according to -let* (see -let*).  VALS are evaluated sequentially, and evaluation stops after the first nil VAL is encountered.

          (-if-let* ((x 5) (y 3) (z 7)) (+ x y z) "foo")
              => 15

          (-if-let* ((x 5) (y nil) (z 7)) (+ x y z) "foo")
              => "foo"

          (-if-let* (((_ _ x) '(nil nil 7))) x)
              => 7

 -- Macro: -let (varlist &rest body)
     Bind variables according to VARLIST then eval BODY.

     VARLIST is a list of lists of the form (PATTERN SOURCE).  Each PATTERN is matched against the SOURCE "structurally".  SOURCE is only evaluated once for each PATTERN.  Each PATTERN is matched recursively, and can therefore contain sub-patterns which are matched against corresponding sub-expressions of SOURCE.

     All the SOURCEs are evalled before any symbols are bound (i.e. "in parallel").

     If VARLIST only contains one (PATTERN SOURCE) element, you can optionally specify it using a vector and discarding the outer-most parens.  Thus

     (-let ((PATTERN SOURCE)) ...)

     becomes

     (-let [PATTERN SOURCE] ...).

     -let (see -let) uses a convention of not binding places (symbols) starting with _ whenever it's possible.  You can use this to skip over entries you don't care about.  However, this is not *always* possible (as a result of implementation) and these symbols might get bound to undefined values.

     Following is the overview of supported patterns.  Remember that patterns can be matched recursively, so every a, b, aK in the following can be a matching construct and not necessarily a symbol/variable.

     Symbol:

     a - bind the SOURCE to A.  This is just like regular let.

     Conses and lists:

     (a) - bind car of cons/list to A

     (a . b) - bind car of cons to A and cdr to B

     (a b) - bind car of list to A and cadr to B

     (a1 a2 a3 ...) - bind 0th car of list to A1, 1st to A2, 2nd to A3...

     (a1 a2 a3 ... aN . rest) - as above, but bind the Nth cdr to REST.

     Vectors:

     [a] - bind 0th element of a non-list sequence to A (works with vectors, strings, bit arrays...)

     [a1 a2 a3 ...] - bind 0th element of non-list sequence to A0, 1st to A1, 2nd to A2, ... If the PATTERN is shorter than SOURCE, the values at places not in PATTERN are ignored. If the PATTERN is longer than SOURCE, an error is thrown.

     [a1 a2 a3 ... &rest rest] - as above, but bind the rest of the sequence to REST.  This is conceptually the same as improper list matching (a1 a2 ... aN . rest)

     Key/value stores:

     (&plist key0 a0 ... keyN aN) - bind value mapped by keyK in the SOURCE plist to aK.  If the value is not found, aK is nil. Uses plist-get to fetch values.

     (&alist key0 a0 ... keyN aN) - bind value mapped by keyK in the SOURCE alist to aK.  If the value is not found, aK is nil. Uses assoc to fetch values.

     (&hash key0 a0 ... keyN aN) - bind value mapped by keyK in the SOURCE hash table to aK.  If the value is not found, aK is nil. Uses gethash to fetch values.

     Further, special keyword &keys supports "inline" matching of plist-like key-value pairs, similarly to &keys keyword of cl-defun.

     (a1 a2 ... aN &keys key1 b1 ... keyN bK)

     This binds N values from the list to a1 ... aN, then interprets the cdr as a plist (see key/value matching above).

     A shorthand notation for kv-destructuring exists which allows the patterns be optionally left out and derived from the key name in the following fashion:

     - a key :foo is converted into foo pattern, - a key 'bar is converted into bar pattern, - a key "baz" is converted into baz pattern.

     That is, the entire value under the key is bound to the derived variable without any further destructuring.

     This is possible only when the form following the key is not a valid pattern (i.e. not a symbol, a cons cell or a vector). Otherwise the matching proceeds as usual and in case of an invalid spec fails with an error.

     Thus the patterns are normalized as follows:

     ;; derive all the missing patterns (&plist :foo 'bar "baz") => (&plist :foo foo 'bar bar "baz" baz)

     ;; we can specify some but not others (&plist :foo 'bar explicit-bar) => (&plist :foo foo 'bar explicit-bar)

     ;; nothing happens, we store :foo in x (&plist :foo x) => (&plist :foo x)

     ;; nothing happens, we match recursively (&plist :foo (a b c)) => (&plist :foo (a b c))

     You can name the source using the syntax SYMBOL &as PATTERN. This syntax works with lists (proper or improper), vectors and all types of maps.

     (list &as a b c) (list 1 2 3)

     binds A to 1, B to 2, C to 3 and LIST to (1 2 3).

     Similarly:

     (bounds &as beg . end) (cons 1 2)

     binds BEG to 1, END to 2 and BOUNDS to (1 . 2).

     (items &as first . rest) (list 1 2 3)

     binds FIRST to 1, REST to (2 3) and ITEMS to (1 2 3)

     [vect &as _ b c] [1 2 3]

     binds B to 2, C to 3 and VECT to [1 2 3] (_ avoids binding as usual).

     (plist &as &plist :b b) (list :a 1 :b 2 :c 3)

     binds B to 2 and PLIST to (:a 1 :b 2 :c 3).  Same for &alist and &hash.

     This is especially useful when we want to capture the result of a computation and destructure at the same time.  Consider the form (function-returning-complex-structure) returning a list of two vectors with two items each.  We want to capture this entire result and pass it to another computation, but at the same time we want to get the second item from each vector.  We can achieve it with pattern

     (result &as [_ a] [_ b]) (function-returning-complex-structure)

     Note: Clojure programmers may know this feature as the ":as binding".  The difference is that we put the &as at the front because we need to support improper list binding.

          (-let (([a (b c) d] [1 (2 3) 4])) (list a b c d))
              => (1 2 3 4)

          (-let [(a b c . d) (list 1 2 3 4 5 6)] (list a b c d))
              => (1 2 3 (4 5 6))

          (-let [(&plist :foo foo :bar bar) (list :baz 3 :foo 1 :qux 4 :bar 2)] (list foo bar))
              => (1 2)

 -- Macro: -let* (varlist &rest body)
     Bind variables according to VARLIST then eval BODY.

     VARLIST is a list of lists of the form (PATTERN SOURCE).  Each PATTERN is matched against the SOURCE structurally.  SOURCE is only evaluated once for each PATTERN.

     Each SOURCE can refer to the symbols already bound by this VARLIST.  This is useful if you want to destructure SOURCE recursively but also want to name the intermediate structures.

     See -let (see -let) for the list of all possible patterns.

          (-let* (((a . b) (cons 1 2)) ((c . d) (cons 3 4))) (list a b c d))
              => (1 2 3 4)

          (-let* (((a . b) (cons 1 (cons 2 3))) ((c . d) b)) (list a b c d))
              => (1 (2 . 3) 2 3)

          (-let* (((&alist "foo" foo "bar" bar) (list (cons "foo" 1) (cons "bar" (list 'a 'b 'c)))) ((a b c) bar)) (list foo a b c bar))
              => (1 a b c (a b c))

 -- Macro: -lambda (match-form &rest body)
     Return a lambda which destructures its input as MATCH-FORM and executes BODY.

     Note that you have to enclose the MATCH-FORM in a pair of parens, such that:

     (-lambda (x) body) (-lambda (x y ...) body)

     has the usual semantics of lambda.  Furthermore, these get translated into normal lambda, so there is no performance penalty.

     See -let (see -let) for a description of the destructuring mechanism.

          (-map (-lambda ((x y)) (+ x y)) '((1 2) (3 4) (5 6)))
              => (3 7 11)

          (-map (-lambda ([x y]) (+ x y)) '([1 2] [3 4] [5 6]))
              => (3 7 11)

          (funcall (-lambda ((_ . a) (_ . b)) (-concat a b)) '(1 2 3) '(4 5 6))
              => (2 3 5 6)

 -- Macro: -setq ([match-form val] ...)
     Bind each MATCH-FORM to the value of its VAL.

     MATCH-FORM destructuring is done according to the rules of -let (see -let).

     This macro allows you to bind multiple variables by destructuring the value, so for example:

     (-setq (a b) x (&plist :c c) plist)

     expands roughly speaking to the following code

     (setq a (car x) b (cadr x) c (plist-get plist :c))

     Care is taken to only evaluate each VAL once so that in case of multiple assignments it does not cause unexpected side effects.

          (let (a) (-setq a 1) a)
              => 1

          (let (a b) (-setq (a b) (list 1 2)) (list a b))
              => (1 2)

          (let (c) (-setq (&plist :c c) (list :c "c")) c)
              => "c"

Side effects
============

Functions iterating over lists for side effect only.

 -- Function: -each (list fn)
     Call FN on each element of LIST. Return nil; this function is intended for side effects.

     Its anaphoric counterpart is --each.

     For access to the current element's index in LIST, see -each-indexed (see -each-indexed).

          (let (l) (-each '(1 2 3) (lambda (x) (push x l))) l)
              => (3 2 1)

          (let (l) (--each '(1 2 3) (push it l)) l)
              => (3 2 1)

          (-each '(1 2 3) #'identity)
              => nil

 -- Function: -each-while (list pred fn)
     Call FN on each ITEM in LIST, while (PRED ITEM) is non-nil. Once an ITEM is reached for which PRED returns nil, FN is no longer called.  Return nil; this function is intended for side effects.

     Its anaphoric counterpart is --each-while.

          (let (l) (-each-while '(2 4 5 6) #'even? (lambda (x) (push x l))) l)
              => (4 2)

          (let (l) (--each-while '(1 2 3 4) (< it 3) (push it l)) l)
              => (2 1)

          (let ((s 0)) (--each-while '(1 3 4 5) (< it 5) (setq s (+ s it))) s)
              => 8

 -- Function: -each-indexed (list fn)
     Call FN on each index and element of LIST. For each ITEM at INDEX in LIST, call (funcall FN INDEX ITEM). Return nil; this function is intended for side effects.

     See also: -map-indexed (see -map-indexed).

          (let (l) (-each-indexed '(a b c) (lambda (i x) (push (list x i) l))) l)
              => ((c 2) (b 1) (a 0))

          (let (l) (--each-indexed '(a b c) (push (list it it-index) l)) l)
              => ((c 2) (b 1) (a 0))

          (let (l) (--each-indexed () (push it l)) l)
              => ()

 -- Function: -each-r (list fn)
     Call FN on each element of LIST in reversed order. Return nil; this function is intended for side effects.

     Its anaphoric counterpart is --each-r.

          (let (l) (-each-r '(1 2 3) (lambda (x) (push x l))) l)
              => (1 2 3)

          (let (l) (--each-r '(1 2 3) (push it l)) l)
              => (1 2 3)

          (-each-r '(1 2 3) #'identity)
              => nil

 -- Function: -each-r-while (list pred fn)
     Call FN on each ITEM in reversed LIST, while (PRED ITEM) is non-nil. Once an ITEM is reached for which PRED returns nil, FN is no longer called.  Return nil; this function is intended for side effects.

     Its anaphoric counterpart is --each-r-while.

          (let (l) (-each-r-while '(2 4 5 6) #'even? (lambda (x) (push x l))) l)
              => (6)

          (let (l) (--each-r-while '(1 2 3 4) (>= it 3) (push it l)) l)
              => (3 4)

          (let ((s 0)) (--each-r-while '(1 2 3 5) (> it 1) (setq s (+ s it))) s)
              => 10

 -- Function: -dotimes (num fn)
     Call FN NUM times, presumably for side effects. FN is called with a single argument on successive integers running from 0, inclusive, to NUM, exclusive.  FN is not called if NUM is less than 1.

     This function's anaphoric counterpart is --dotimes.

          (let (s) (-dotimes 3 (lambda (n) (push n s))) s)
              => (2 1 0)

          (let (s) (-dotimes 0 (lambda (n) (push n s))) s)
              => ()

          (let (s) (--dotimes 5 (push it s)) s)
              => (4 3 2 1 0)

Destructive operations
======================

Macros that modify variables holding lists.

 -- Macro: !cons (car cdr)
     Destructive: Set CDR to the cons of CAR and CDR.

          (let (l) (!cons 5 l) l)
              => (5)

          (let ((l '(3))) (!cons 5 l) l)
              => (5 3)

 -- Macro: !cdr (list)
     Destructive: Set LIST to the cdr of LIST.

          (let ((l '(3))) (!cdr l) l)
              => ()

          (let ((l '(3 5))) (!cdr l) l)
              => (5)

Function combinators
====================

Functions that manipulate and compose other functions.

 -- Function: -partial (fun &rest args)
     Return a function that is a partial application of FUN to ARGS. ARGS is a list of the first N arguments to pass to FUN. The result is a new function which does the same as FUN, except that the first N arguments are fixed at the values with which this function was called.

          (funcall (-partial #'+ 5))
              => 5

          (funcall (-partial #'- 5) 3)
              => 2

          (funcall (-partial #'+ 5 2) 3)
              => 10

 -- Function: -rpartial (fn &rest args)
     Return a function that is a partial application of FN to ARGS. ARGS is a list of the last N arguments to pass to FN.  The result is a new function which does the same as FN, except that the last N arguments are fixed at the values with which this function was called.  This is like -partial (see -partial), except the arguments are fixed starting from the right rather than the left.

          (funcall (-rpartial #'- 5))
              => -5

              => 3

 -- Function: -juxt (&rest fns)
     Return a function that is the juxtaposition of FNS. The returned function takes a variable number of ARGS, applies each of FNS in turn to ARGS, and returns the list of results.

          (funcall (-juxt) 1 2)
              => ()

          (funcall (-juxt #'+ #'- #'* #'/) 7 5)
              => (12 2 35 1)

          (mapcar (-juxt #'number-to-string #'1+) '(1 2))
              => (("1" 2) ("2" 3))

 -- Function: -compose (&rest fns)
     Compose FNS into a single composite function. Return a function that takes a variable number of ARGS, applies the last function in FNS to ARGS, and returns the result of calling each remaining function on the result of the previous function, right-to-left.  If no FNS are given, return a variadic identity function.

          (funcall (-compose #'- #'1+ #'+) 1 2 3)
              => -7

          (funcall (-compose #'identity #'1+) 3)
              => 4

          (mapcar (-compose #'not #'stringp) '(nil ""))
              => (t nil)

 -- Function: -applify (fn)
     Return a function that applies FN to a single list of args. This changes the arity of FN from taking N distinct arguments to taking 1 argument which is a list of N arguments.

          (funcall (-applify #'+) nil)
              => 0

          (mapcar (-applify #'+) '((1 1 1) (1 2 3) (5 5 5)))
              => (3 6 15)

          (funcall (-applify #'<) '(3 6))
              => t

 -- Function: -on (op trans)
     Return a function that calls TRANS on each arg and OP on the results. The returned function takes a variable number of arguments, calls the function TRANS on each one in turn, and then passes those results as the list of arguments to OP, in the same order.

     For example, the following pairs of expressions are morally equivalent:

     (funcall (-on #'+ #'1+) 1 2 3) = (+ (1+ 1) (1+ 2) (1+ 3)) (funcall (-on #'+ #'1+))       = (+)

          (-sort (-on #'< #'length) '((1 2 3) (1) (1 2)))
              => ((1) (1 2) (1 2 3))

          (funcall (-on #'min #'string-to-number) "22" "2" "1" "12")
              => 1

          (-min-by (-on #'> #'length) '((1 2 3) (4) (1 2)))
              => (4)

 -- Function: -flip (fn)
     Return a function that calls FN with its arguments reversed. The returned function takes the same number of arguments as FN.

     For example, the following two expressions are morally equivalent:

     (funcall (-flip #'-) 1 2) = (- 2 1)

     See also: -rotate-args (see -rotate-args).

          (-sort (-flip #'<) '(4 3 6 1))
              => (6 4 3 1)

          (funcall (-flip #'-) 3 2 1 10)
              => 4

          (funcall (-flip #'1+) 1)
              => 2

 -- Function: -rotate-args (n fn)
     Return a function that calls FN with args rotated N places to the right. The returned function takes the same number of arguments as FN, rotates the list of arguments N places to the right (left if N is negative) just like -rotate (see -rotate), and applies FN to the result.

     See also: -flip (see -flip).

          (funcall (-rotate-args -1 #'list) 1 2 3 4)
              => (2 3 4 1)

          (funcall (-rotate-args 1 #'-) 1 10 100)
              => 89

          (funcall (-rotate-args 2 #'list) 3 4 5 1 2)
              => (1 2 3 4 5)

 -- Function: -const (c)
     Return a function that returns C ignoring any additional arguments.

     In types: a -> b -> a

          (funcall (-const 2) 1 3 "foo")
              => 2

          (mapcar (-const 1) '("a" "b" "c" "d"))
              => (1 1 1 1)

          (-sum (mapcar (-const 1) '("a" "b" "c" "d")))
              => 4

 -- Macro: -cut (&rest params)
     Take n-ary function and n arguments and specialize some of them. Arguments denoted by <> will be left unspecialized.

     See SRFI-26 for detailed description.

          (funcall (-cut list 1 <> 3 <> 5) 2 4)
              => (1 2 3 4 5)

          (-map (-cut funcall <> 5) `(1+ 1- ,(lambda (x) (/ 1.0 x))))
              => (6 4 0.2)

          (-map (-cut <> 1 2 3) '(list vector string))
              => ((1 2 3) [1 2 3] "\1\2\3")

 -- Function: -not (pred)
     Return a predicate that negates the result of PRED. The returned predicate passes its arguments to PRED.  If PRED returns nil, the result is non-nil; otherwise the result is nil.

     See also: -andfn (see -andfn) and -orfn (see -orfn).

          (funcall (-not #'numberp) "5")
              => t

          (-sort (-not #'<) '(5 2 1 0 6))
              => (6 5 2 1 0)

          (-filter (-not (-partial #'< 4)) '(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8))
              => (1 2 3 4)

 -- Function: -orfn (&rest preds)
     Return a predicate that returns the first non-nil result of PREDS. The returned predicate takes a variable number of arguments, passes them to each predicate in PREDS in turn until one of them returns non-nil, and returns that non-nil result without calling the remaining PREDS.  If all PREDS return nil, or if no PREDS are given, the returned predicate returns nil.

     See also: -andfn (see -andfn) and -not (see -not).

          (-filter (-orfn #'natnump #'booleanp) '(1 nil "a" -4 b c t))
              => (1 nil t)

          (funcall (-orfn #'symbolp (-cut string-match-p "x" <>)) "axe")
              => 1

          (funcall (-orfn #'= #'+) 1 1)
              => t

 -- Function: -andfn (&rest preds)
     Return a predicate that returns non-nil if all PREDS do so. The returned predicate P takes a variable number of arguments and passes them to each predicate in PREDS in turn.  If any one of PREDS returns nil, P also returns nil without calling the remaining PREDS.  If all PREDS return non-nil, P returns the last such value.  If no PREDS are given, P always returns non-nil.

     See also: -orfn (see -orfn) and -not (see -not).

          (-filter (-andfn #'numberp (-cut < <> 5)) '(a 1 b 6 c 2))
              => (1 2)

          (mapcar (-andfn #'numberp #'1+) '(a 1 b 6))
              => (nil 2 nil 7)

          (funcall (-andfn #'= #'+) 1 1)
              => 2

 -- Function: -iteratefn (fn n)
     Return a function FN composed N times with itself.

     FN is a unary function.  If you need to use a function of higher arity, use -applify (see -applify) first to turn it into a unary function.

     With n = 0, this acts as identity function.

     In types: (a -> a) -> Int -> a -> a.

     This function satisfies the following law:

     (funcall (-iteratefn fn n) init) = (-last-item (-iterate fn init (1+ n))).

          (funcall (-iteratefn (lambda (x) (* x x)) 3) 2)
              => 256

          (funcall (-iteratefn '1+ 3) 1)
              => 4

          (funcall (-iteratefn 'cdr 3) '(1 2 3 4 5))
              => (4 5)

 -- Function: -fixfn (fn &optional equal-test halt-test)
     Return a function that computes the (least) fixpoint of FN.

     FN must be a unary function. The returned lambda takes a single argument, X, the initial value for the fixpoint iteration. The iteration halts when either of the following conditions is satisfied:

     1. Iteration converges to the fixpoint, with equality being tested using EQUAL-TEST. If EQUAL-TEST is not specified, equal is used. For functions over the floating point numbers, it may be necessary to provide an appropriate approximate comparison test.

     2. HALT-TEST returns a non-nil value. HALT-TEST defaults to a simple counter that returns t after -fixfn-max-iterations, to guard against infinite iteration. Otherwise, HALT-TEST must be a function that accepts a single argument, the current value of X, and returns non-nil as long as iteration should continue. In this way, a more sophisticated convergence test may be supplied by the caller.

     The return value of the lambda is either the fixpoint or, if iteration halted before converging, a cons with car halted and cdr the final output from HALT-TEST.

     In types: (a -> a) -> a -> a.

          (funcall (-fixfn #'cos #'approx=) 0.7)
              => 0.7390851332151607

          (funcall (-fixfn (lambda (x) (expt (+ x 10) 0.25))) 2.0)
              => 1.8555845286409378

          (funcall (-fixfn #'sin #'approx=) 0.1)
              => (halted . t)

 -- Function: -prodfn (&rest fns)
     Take a list of n functions and return a function that takes a list of length n, applying i-th function to i-th element of the input list.  Returns a list of length n.

     In types (for n=2): ((a -> b), (c -> d)) -> (a, c) -> (b, d)

     This function satisfies the following laws:

     (-compose (-prodfn f g ...) (-prodfn f' g' ...)) = (-prodfn (-compose f f') (-compose g g') ...) (-prodfn f g ...) = (-juxt (-compose f (-partial 'nth 0)) (-compose g (-partial 'nth 1)) ...) (-compose (-prodfn f g ...) (-juxt f' g' ...)) = (-juxt (-compose f f') (-compose g g') ...) (-compose (-partial 'nth n) (-prod f1 f2 ...)) = (-compose fn (-partial 'nth n))

          (funcall (-prodfn '1+ '1- 'number-to-string) '(1 2 3))
              => (2 1 "3")

          (-map (-prodfn '1+ '1-) '((1 2) (3 4) (5 6) (7 8)))
              => ((2 1) (4 3) (6 5) (8 7))

          (apply '+ (funcall (-prodfn 'length 'string-to-number) '((1 2 3) "15")))
              => 18

Contribute
==========

Yes, please do.  Pure functions in the list manipulation realm only, please.  There's a suite of examples/tests in dev/examples.el, so remember to add tests for your additions, or they may get broken later.

Run the tests with make check.  Regenerate the docs with make docs.  Contributors are encouraged to install these commands as a Git pre-commit hook, so that the tests are always running and the docs are always in sync:

     $ cp dev/pre-commit.sh .git/hooks/pre-commit

Oh, and don't edit README.md or dash.texi directly, as they are auto-generated.  Instead, change their respective templates readme-template.md or dash-template.texi.

To ensure that Dash can be distributed with GNU ELPA or Emacs, we require that all contributors assign copyright to the Free Software Foundation.  For more on this, see Copyright Assignment (The GNU Emacs Manual).
