Eager_deferred partially implements the Deferred interface, with a type 'a t equal to 'a Deferred.t, but where the operations are "eager", that is built upon a world where bind, map, and upon eagerly apply their closure without preemption in the case the deferred they are working with is already determined.
The goal with that approach is that one can locally write the following to switch to such a world.
open Use_eager_deferred
We do not intend at first for this to implement the entire Deferred interface, because some of this will require more experimentation and discussions. We can proceed incrementally to enrich this interface.
test/test_eager_deferred verifies that this interface is a sub interface of the Deferred interface. For documentation, refer to Deferred.
val invariant : ('a-> unit)->'aAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t-> unit
includeCore_kernel.Monadwithtype'a t := 'aAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t
val (>>=) :
'aAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t->('a->'bAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t)->'bAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t
t >>= f returns a computation that sequences the computations represented by two monad elements. The resulting computation first does t to yield a value v, and then runs the computation returned by f v.
val (>>|) :
'aAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t->('a->'b)->'bAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t
val bind :
'aAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t->f:('a->'bAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t)->'bAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t
bind t ~f = t >>= f
val return : 'a->'aAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t
return v returns the (trivial) computation that returns v.
val map :

val ignore_m :
'aAsync_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t->unit Async_kernel__.Types.Deferred.t
ignore_m t is map t ~f:(fun _ -> ()). ignore_m used to be called ignore, but we decided that was a bad name, because it shadowed the widely used Pervasives.ignore. Some monads still do let ignore = ignore_m for historical reasons.
