Intended as a branch PR, since it provides it provides a couple ideas for dealing with anamorphisms.
Having a
Coalgebra<Lazy<A>, Functor<Lazy<A>, F>
doesn't prevent stack overflows. The baseAnamorphism
class then does away with theLazy
requirement altogether, as it doesn't seem to add anything.Two approaches so far have succeeded in providing (infinite) anamorphisms without stack overflow. The first was a
ComposeF
which would bind together the functorF
andLazy
, but type inference was terrible (requiring multiple explicit casts to start retrieving any results). AFixLazy
which required aFn0<Unfixed>
to create aLazy<Unfixed>
also achieved the same results, with better (though still not great) type inference, and again without requiring the user to supply anyLazy
annotations.LazyAnamorphism
uses this approach.
