| Return Type
| structure |
| Synopsis
| Assemble and disassemble are a pair of functions
which allow the handling of procedures and expressions in Darwin.
Disassemble transforms an internal structure into a Darwin
data structure, where the names of the classes are the type
names of the components.
Assemble does exactly the reverse.
The existence of this pair of functions is to be able to inspect,
modify and create new bodies of procedures.
Although they both work for any structure, common structures
can be manipulated directly.
It is the body of procedures which cannot be manipulated directly
without dis/assemble. |
| Examples
| > disassemble(x -> sin(x));
procedure(expseq(x),expseq(),expseq(operator,arrow),expseq(),expseq(),structure(
sin,Param(1)))
> disassemble([1,{2,3}]);
list(1,set(2,3))
