This bring me several memories (as a former EE engineer worked a lot with signals..)
Yes I’m pretty convinced of that..
Yet when I jumped into ruby (from assembly/c) I was astonished by Ruby meta-programming abilities..
And I’m sure that it will be ever more interesting in elixir.
I’m just taking the time to embrace FP before going on..
Anyway good luck to you..
Frankly speaking, I find the parametrized pipe hard to read and understand, so I don’t really have an intention to use the library. Having said that, I applaud your persistence and I’m very happy that Elixir allows you to even do these things!
On a side note, I think an explicitly “indexed” pipe would gain my interest (I’m looking at you File.write). Something like:
data
|> foo(1, 2) # pipe into the first argument
|>> bar(4, _, 6) # pipe into the second
So the idea is here that there’s a new operator and I can explicitly state which argument I want to pipe into. The |>> is far from perfect, since it breaks the alignment.
