Documentation

Hi, Is there a documentation talking about the source code like an API documentation?

I am developing a structure like: Given that Const is a subtype of Exp f{T<:Exp}(x::T,y ::T ) = Composite(x,y) f(x::Const,y::Const) => here I look for optimization cases where Const(0.0) or Const(1.0) and in the fall back case , I need to call f{T<:Exp}(x::T,y ::T ).

This definitely needs this sort of dispatch. I developed my own expression tree matching system. however i need to develop a decision tree and linearization scheme like yours? So If there is a document about the process, it would be awesome.

Or at least, an explanation about each type or jl file that you use in your code would be a nice thing.

Thanks

Hi, sorry for the late reply, have been away without internet for a while. Unfortunately, there's not really any documentation besides the source itself. It's been a while since I wrote this so I don't quite remember how everything fits together either, but if you make some more specific questions I might be able to answer them.

2 years ago I was working an a major overhaul of the package, but it never quite got to the state where I was happy to release it. It's really a reimplementation using a somewhat different design for the internals, but I also made an effort to document more of the working principles for that design. You can find it in the readme for https://github.com/toivoh/PatternDispatch.jl/tree/new_pattern. Perhaps it might give some insight?
