NamedTuple(ft::FrankenTuple)

Access the NamedTuple part of a FrankenTuple, i.e. the named portion.

Tuple(ft::FrankenTuple)

Access the Tuple part of a FrankenTuple, i.e. the "plain," unnamed portion.

FrankenTuple{T<:Tuple, names, NT<:Tuple}

A FrankenTuple contains a Tuple of type T and a NamedTuple with names names and types NT. It acts like a cross between the two, like a partially-named tuple.

The named portion of a FrankenTuple can be accessed using NamedTuple, and the unnamed portion can be accessed with Tuple.

Examples

julia> ft = FrankenTuple((1, 2), (a=1, b=2))
FrankenTuple((1, 2), (a = 1, b = 2))

julia> Tuple(ft)
(1, 2)

julia> NamedTuple(ft)
(a = 1, b = 2)

eltype(ft::FrankenTuple)

Determine the element type of ft. This is the immediate supertype of the elements in ft if they are not homogeneously typed.

Examples

julia> eltype(ftuple(1, 2; a=3, b=4))
Int64

julia> eltype(ftuple(0x0, 1))
Integer

julia> eltype(ftuple(a=2.0, b=0x1))
Real

julia> eltype(ftuple())
Union{}

empty(ft::FrankenTuple)

Construct an empty FrankenTuple.

first(ft::FrankenTuple)

Get the first value in ft in iteration order. ft must be non-empty.

firstindex(ft::FrankenTuple)

Retrieve the first index of ft, which is always 1.

getindex(ft::FrankenTuple, i)

Retrieve the value of ft at the given index i. When i::Integer, this gets the value at index i in iteration order. When i::Symbol, this gets the value from the named section with name i. (getproperty can also be used for the Symbol case.)

Examples

julia> ftuple(1, 2; a=3, b=4)[3]
3

julia> ftuple(1, 2; a=3, b=4)[:a]
3

hasmethod(f, ft::Type{<:FrankenTuple})

Determine whether the function f has a method with positional argument types matching those in the unnamed portion of ft and with keyword arguments named in accordance with those in the named portion of ft.

Note that the types in the named portion of ft do not factor into determining the existence of a matching method because keyword arguments to not participate in dispatch. Similarly, calling hasmethod with a FrankenTuple with an empty named portion will still return true if the positional arguments match, even if f only has methods that accept keyword arguments. This ensures agreement with the behavior of hasmethod on Tuples.

More generally, the names in the FrankenTuple must be a subset of the keyword argument names in the matching method, except when the method accepts a variable number of keyword arguments (e.g. kwargs...). In that case, the names in the method must be a subset of the FrankenTuple's names.

Examples

julia> f(x::Int; y=3, z=4) = x + y + z;

julia> hasmethod(f, FrankenTuple{Tuple{Int},(:y,)})
true

julia> hasmethod(f, FrankenTuple{Tuple{Int},(:a,)}) # no keyword `a`
false

julia> g(; a, b, kwargs...) = +(a, b, kwargs...);

julia> hasmethod(g, FrankenTuple{Tuple{},(:a,:b,:c,:d)}) # g accepts arbitrarily many kwargs
true

isempty(ft::FrankenTuple)

Determine whether the given FrankenTuple is empty, i.e. has at least 1 element.

iterate(ft::FrankenTuple[, state])

Iterate over ft. This yields the values of the unnamed section first, then the values of the named section.

Examples

julia> ft = @ftuple (1, a=3, 2, b=4)
FrankenTuple((1, 2), (a = 3, b = 4))

julia> collect(ft)
4-element Array{Int64,1}:
 1
 2
 3
 4

keys(ft::FrankenTuple)

Get the keys of the given FrankenTuple, i.e. the set of valid indices into ft. The unnamed section of ft has 1-based integer keys and the named section is keyed by name, given as Symbols.

Examples

julia> keys(ftuple(1, 2; a=3, b=4))
(1, 2, :a, :b)

lastindex(ft::FrankenTuple)

Retrieve the last index of ft, which is equivalent to its length.

length(ft::FrankenTuple)

Compute the number of elements in ft.

pairs(ft::FrankenTuple)

Construct a Pairs iterator that associates the keys of ft with its values.

Examples

julia> collect(pairs(ftuple(1, 2; a=3, b=4)))
4-element Array{Pair{Any,Int64},1}:
  1 => 1
  2 => 2
 :a => 3
 :b => 4

Base.tail(ft::FrankenTuple)

Return the tail portion of ft: a new FrankenTuple with the first element of ft removed. ft must be non-empty.

Examples

julia> Base.tail(ftuple(a=4, b=5))
FrankenTuple((), (b = 5,))

values(ft::FrankenTuple)

Get the values of the given FrankenTuple in iteration order. The values for the unnamed section appear before that of the named section.

Examples

julia> values(ftuple(1, 2; a=3, b=4))
(1, 2, 3, 4)

ftcall(f::Function, ft::FrankenTuple)

Call the function f using the unnamed portion of ft as its positional arguments and the named portion of ft as its keyword arguments.

Examples

julia> ftcall(mapreduce, ftuple(abs2, -, 1:4; init=0))
-30

ftuple(args...; kwargs...)

Construct a FrankenTuple from the given positional and keyword arguments.

Examples

julia> ftuple(1, 2)
FrankenTuple((1, 2), NamedTuple())

julia> ftuple(1, 2, a=3, b=4)
FrankenTuple((1, 2), (a = 3, b = 4))

@ftuple (x...; y...)
@ftuple (a, x=t, b, y=u)

Construct a FrankenTuple from the given tuple expression, which can contain both positional and named elements. The tuple can be "sectioned" in the same manner as a function signature, with positional elements separated from the named elements by a semicolon, or positional and named elements can be intermixed, occurring in any order.

Examples

julia> @ftuple (1, 2; a=3, b=4)
FrankenTuple((1, 2), (a = 3, b = 4))

julia> @ftuple (1, a=3, 2, b=4)
FrankenTuple((1, 2), (a = 3, b = 4))
