// [=] instructions denote the boundary between one model and another. | |
// the traverser's model will have a different algebra than the model its moving through. | |
// - e.g. the internal state of the traverser uses different types than mongodb. | |
// - how do traversers split at branches? | |
// - how do traversers merge at joins? | |
// - when traversers merge, what are the rules for path aggregation? | |
// Perhaps [=] instructions are "rich" in that they store model definitions. (costume change) | |
// This could be how progamming libraries are expressed in mm-ADT? | |
// In this way, the user creates a traverser specification as such: | |
[branch,[=pathing],[=group],[=mongo]] | |
// ....where, for large programs, these model libraries are defined elsewhere (file-wise). | |
// For instance, the VM might have access to a models/ directory. | |
// group.mm "jar" :) | |
[=group,[choose, | |
[plus,[zero]] -> [id] | |
[minus,[zero]] -> [id] | |
x + y -> y + x | |
--x -> x]] | |
// pathing.mm | |
[=pathing,[choose, | |
[get,'path'] -> [;] | |
inst -> [get,'path'][add,[get,'value']]]] | |
// to bundle these models into a single [=] would be: | |
// myapp.mm | |
[=mymonad,[branch,[=pathing],[=group],[=mongo]]] // define once for many many queries to follow | |
// That was all application development stuff. | |
// Now to execute queries (what most users will experience). | |
// A query over mongodb where path histories are recorded and group axioms are applied. | |
[=mymonad][get,'people'][is,[get,'name'][eq,'marko']][get,'age'] | |
