You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Create a function, compose, whose two arguments f and g, are both functions with one argument. The result of compose is to be a function of one argument, (lets call the argument x), which works like applying function f to the result of applying function g to x.
I.e:
compose(f, g)(x) == f( g(x) )
Reference: Function composition
Hint: Implementing compose correctly requires creating a closure. If your language does not support closures directly, you will need to implement it yourself.
Ada
The interface of a generic functions package. The package can be instantiated with any type that has value semantics. Functions are composed using the operation '*'. The same operation applied to an argument evaluates it there: f * x. Functions can be composed with pointers to Ada functions. (In Ada functions are not first-class): <lang ada> generic
type Argument is private;
package Functions is
type Primitive_Operation is not null access function (Value : Argument) return Argument; type Func (<>) is private; function "*" (Left : Func; Right : Argument) return Argument; function "*" (Left : Func; Right : Primitive_Operation) return Func; function "*" (Left, Right : Primitive_Operation) return Func; function "*" (Left, Right : Func) return Func;
private
type Func is array (Positive range <>) of Primitive_Operation;
end Functions; </lang> Here is an implementation; <lang ada> package body Functions is
function "*" (Left : Func; Right : Argument) return Argument is Result : Argument := Right; begin for I in reverse Left'Range loop Result := Left (I) (Result); end loop; return Result; end "*";
function "*" (Left, Right : Func) return Func is begin return Left & Right; end "*";
function "*" (Left : Func; Right : Primitive_Operation) return Func is begin return Left & (1 => Right); end "*"; function "*" (Left, Right : Primitive_Operation) return Func is begin return (Left, Right); end "*";
end Functions; </lang> The following is an example of use: <lang ada> with Ada.Numerics.Elementary_Functions; use Ada.Numerics.Elementary_Functions; with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO; with Functions;
procedure Test_Compose is
package Float_Functions is new Functions (Float); use Float_Functions;
Sin_Arcsin : Func := Sin'Access * Arcsin'Access;
begin
Put_Line (Float'Image (Sin_Arcsin * 0.5));
end Test_Compose; </lang> Sample output:
5.00000E-01
ALGOL 68
Note: Returning PROC (REAL x)REAL: f1(f2(x))
from a function apparently
violates standard ALGOL 68's scoping rules. ALGOL 68G warns about this during
parsing, and then rejects during runtime.
<lang algol>MODE F = PROC(REAL)REAL; # ALGOL 68 is strong typed #
- As a procedure for real to real functions #
PROC compose = (F f, g)F: (REAL x)REAL: f(g(x));
OP (F,F)F O = compose; # or an OPerator that can be overloaded #
- Example use: #
F sin arc sin = compose(sin, arc sin); print((sin arc sin(0.5), (sin O arc sin)(0.5), new line))</lang> Output:
+.500000000000000e +0 +.500000000000000e +0
ALGOL 68 is a stack based language, and the following apparently does not violate it's scoping rules.
<lang algol>MODE F = PROC(REAL)REAL; # ALGOL 68 is strong typed #
- As a procedure for real to real functions #
PROC compose = (F f, g)F: ((F f2, g2, REAL x)REAL: f2(g2(x)))(f, g, ); # Curry #
PRIO O = 7; OP (F,F)F O = compose; # or an OPerator that can be overloaded #
- Example use: #
F sin arc sin = compose(sin, arc sin); print((sin arc sin(0.5), (sin O arc sin)(0.5), new line))</lang>
C
Only works for functions taking a double and returning a double: <lang c>#include <stdlib.h>
/* generic interface for functors from double to double */ typedef struct double_to_double {
double (*fn)(struct double_to_double *, double);
} double_to_double;
- define CALL(f, x) f->fn(f, x)
/* functor returned by compose */
typedef struct compose_functor {
double (*fn)(struct compose_functor *, double); double_to_double *f; double_to_double *g;
} compose_functor; /* function to be used in "fn" in preceding functor */ double compose_call(compose_functor *this, double x) {
return CALL(this->f, CALL(this->g, x));
} /* returns functor that is the composition of functors
f & g. caller is responsible for deallocating memory */
double_to_double *compose(double_to_double *f,
double_to_double *g) { compose_functor *result = malloc(sizeof(compose_functor)); result->fn = &compose_call; result->f = f; result->g = g; return (double_to_double *)result;
}
- include <math.h>
/* we can make functors for sin and asin by using
the following as "fn" in a functor */
double sin_call(double_to_double *this, double x) {
return sin(x);
} double asin_call(double_to_double *this, double x) {
return asin(x);
}
- include <stdio.h>
int main() {
double_to_double *my_sin = malloc(sizeof(double_to_double)); my_sin->fn = &sin_call; double_to_double *my_asin = malloc(sizeof(double_to_double)); my_asin->fn = &asin_call;
double_to_double *sin_asin = compose(my_sin, my_asin);
printf("%f\n", CALL(sin_asin, 0.5)); /* prints "0.500000" */
free(sin_asin); free(my_sin); free(my_asin);
return 0;
}</lang>

Joy
Composition is the default operation in Joy. The composition of two functions is the concatenation of those functions, in the order in which they are to be applied. <lang joy>

Objective-C
The FunctionComposer is able to compose any object that conforms to the protocol FunctionCapsule (a selector/method accepting any object as argument and returning another object, i.e. computing a "function" of an object). A FunctionCaps class thought to encapsulate a function returning a double and with a double as argument is shown; anyway, as said, any object conforming to FunctionCapsule protocol can be composed with another object conforming to the same protocol. Argument passed and returned can be of any object type.
<lang objc>#include <Foundation/Foundation.h>
// the protocol of objects that can behave "like function" @protocol FunctionCapsule -(id)computeWith: (id)x; @end
// a commodity for "encapsulating" double f(double)
typedef double (*func_t)(double);
