class:: Fdef
summary:: lazy function proxy
categories:: Libraries>JITLib>Patterns, Live Coding
related:: Classes/Pdef, Classes/Tdef, Classes/Pdefn, Classes/Ndef

description::
Placeholder for functions to calculate with.

See also: link::Classes/Maybe:: and the link::Overviews/JITLib:: overview.

ClassMethods::

private::initClass

method::new

argument::key
if no instance exists with this name, create a new one, otherwise return the existing one.

argument::val
If a link::Classes/Function:: is given, replace the old function with the new one.

Examples::

code::
Fdef(\x, { 8 + 9 });

Fdef(\y, Fdef(\x) - 3);

Fdef(\y).value;

Fdef(\x, 3);

Fdef(\y).value;

Fdef(\x, { |x=0| x });


Fdef(\x).value(8);

Fdef(\y).value(8);


z = Fdef(\x) * Fdef(\y) + { 1.0.rand };

z.value;
z.value(400);
