抽象ウィキペディア/初期の関数のサンプル

これは想定される関数のサンプルですが、ウィキファンクションズに適したものもそうでないものもあるかもしれません。適否を判断する最終的な権限はコミュニティにあり、このサンプルの一覧はその意思決定をするものではない、ということに注意してください。また、関数の名前や署名は完全だという意味ではなく、実際単なる初期の素描に過ぎません。

サンプルの読み方

上で使われている文法は単に想定される簡潔な表現です。ウィキファンクションズの実際のユーザーインターフェースでの表示方法は違ったものになるかもしれません(例えば初期のモックアップを参照)。

• First comes a possible English label of the function, shown with bold characters (it may be translatable later in the wiki of functions or Wikidata, and cautiously used instead of the internal and unambiguous ZID — that is used at runtime by the evaluator engine or for compositing other functions — keeping in mind that these simple names may be ambiguous and could require scoping or could be aliased differently for use in different implementation languages), followed by a colon :.
  • When the function name has a pair of round parentheses () following it before the colon, it means that the function itself is generic and based on a variable input type T.
• It is then followed by a list of the types of the input arguments of the function, separated by commas , and then followed by an arrow ➝ and the type of the output value.
  • Note that types are specified by their descriptive name in English for now, but they will also be described as ZObjects, with translatable labels and an internal unambiguous ZID.
  • When a type has round parentheses (), it is a type function that returns a type further specified by the argument in the parentheses.
  • Possible errors (or exceptions) are not listed for now, but may be specified later with their own semantics (possibly by using a generic type constructor describing variant types for the result).
• Constraints for values of the given input or output types are not specified. They may be described later by creating subtypes/derived types, for example:
  • the integer type may be specified as a subtype of a more general number type;
  • the byte type may be a specified subtype of the integer type;
  • the noun type may be a specified subtype of the string type, or more probably of a monolingual text type carrying an additional language code property, and specified by a generic type constructor (a kind of function whose input arguments may be other types or values);
  • the quantity type may be specified as a generic type constructor taking an input argument as a value or type, specifying the kind of measurement or a physical dimension, or other input arguments specifying a projection (geometric transforms and axis) and a reference object, separately from the specification of the measurement unit (this could be useful notably for geographic coordinates, temperatures, or qualifications for a specific jurisdiction): they can be defined as derived types using their own generic type constructor;
  • the location and person types may be also specified as a generic type constructor taking one or several several input arguments for specifying many required or optional properties, possibly by referencing other objects with their own suitable types.
• For now, nothing indicates the default values for input arguments (when one of them is omitted), or if the return values are bound to the input arguments, or if the input arguments are modified when they are referenced (for now we'll assume a pure functional model where all inputs and outputs are independent of each other).
• As well, the textual representation of constant values may depend on the specification of type conversion functions (including parsers or renderers for a given language specified as an input argument or as part of a runtime environment passed explicitly as an additional argument, or implicitly with some default).
