Mozart Standard Library: Functional Cells

# Functional Cells

Denys Duchier

module
  x-oz://system/adt/Cell.ozf

This is a functional wrapper around the standard cell datatype.

## Exports

The module exports only one function: a `New` constructor

`{Cell.new V}`
  creates a new instance of a functional cell, initialized with value `V`.

## Instance API

Each functional cell instance `C` has the following features:

`{C.get ?V}`
  return the current value `V` of `C`
`{C.put V}`
  set the current value of `C` to `V`
`{C.getPut Old New}`
  atomically, gets the current value `Old` of `C` and replaces it with `New`
`{C.clone ?C2}`
  returns a new functional cell instance, initialized with `C`'s current value
