Project pythonic-fp-splitends one of the PyPI Pythonic FP projects.
PyPI 2.0.2 release
Mutable stack objects that can safely share data.
Python package implementing a singularly linked stack of nodes called a SplitEnd.
While mutable, these data structures can safely share immutable data nodes between
themselves. These nodes, of type SENode, always contain data. A root node is
a node whose previous node is itself. Root nodes mark the bottom of the stack.
Like one of many “split ends” from shafts of hair, a SplitEnd can be “snipped”
shorter or “extended” further from its “end” node at the top of the stack. Its “root”
node is at the bottom of the stack and can not be “snipped” or “cut” off.
A SplitEnd can be duplicated onto a compatible root node. By compatible, the
new root must contain data that compares as equal to the old root node.
TODO: A scalp is a container of root nodes all of whose contained data must
be hashable. The scalp.add(d) method will return the unique root node with data
that compares as equal to d, or create a new root node if such a contained node
does not exist.
