| Re: Getting arity of closures |
It would seem to me that this should work:
? install("closure_arity","lG")
That should make the internal closure_arity() function available at the
GP level.
? install("closure_arity","lG")
? hypot(a,b)=sqrt(a*a+b*b)
%1 = (a,b)->sqrt(a*a+b*b)
? closure_arity(hypot)
%2 = 2
? hypot4(a,b,c,d)=sqrt(a*a+b*b+c*c+d*d)
%3 = (a,b,c,d)->sqrt(a*a+b*b+c*c+d*d)
? closure_arity(hypot4)
%4 = 4

Is there any GP function to determine the arity of a closure? Something like that would be useful, for example to specify different behaviour when taking a closure as input (like lfuncreate for example).
