Lambda-Go

Overview

Lambda-Go is a library designed to extend Go's capabilities with functional programming techniques inspired by Haskell. It aims to provide Go developers with tools to write cleaner, more expressive code while leveraging Go's strong typing and efficiency.

Features

Core Functional Constructs: Implements fundamental functional programming operations like map, foldl, foldr, and more.
Tuples Support: Generic tuple data structure for handling paired data.
Utilities: A collection of utilities such as reverse, concat, and unique to manipulate slices.
Predicate Functions: Includes functions like filter, any, all, and find to work with predicates effectively.
Sorting and Grouping: Functions for sorting slices and grouping elements based on specified criteria.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Go 1.18 or higher (requires support for generics)

Installing

To use Lambda-Go in your project, start by cloning the repository:

git clone https://github.com/araujo88/lambda-go.git

Then, import the required subpackages in your Go application:

import (
    "github.com/araujo88/lambda-go/pkg/core"
    "github.com/araujo88/lambda-go/pkg/utils"
)

Usage Examples

Here are some simple examples to get you started:

Using Map to double the values in a slice:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/araujo88/lambda-go/pkg/core"
)

func main() {
    slice := []int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
    doubled := core.Map(slice, func(x int) int { return x * 2 })
    fmt.Println(doubled)
}

Filtering a slice of integers:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/araujo88/lambda-go/pkg/predicate"
)

func main() {
    slice := []int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
    filtered := predicate.Filter(slice, func(x int) bool { return x > 3 })
    fmt.Println(filtered)
}
