[ketdot, `^.`, %ktdt](#ktdt)

============================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Cast to product type
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`^.` is a synthetic hoon that casts `q` to the type of `(p q)`. `^.` is
|
||
|
|
the same as casting `q` to the product type of `p` and comes in handy
|
||
|
|
when you don't want to run the contents of `p`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Produces
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Twig: `[%ktdt p=twig q=twig]`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sample
|
||
|
|
------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`p` is a [twig](). `q` is a [twig]().
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tall form
|
||
|
|
---------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
^. p
|
||
|
|
q
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Wide form
|
||
|
|
---------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
None
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Irregular form
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
None
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Examples
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
/~zod/try=> =cor |= [~ a=@]
|
||
|
|
[~ p=a]
|
||
|
|
changed %cor
|
||
|
|
/~zod/try=> ^.(cor [~ 97])
|
||
|
|
[~ p=97]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this example we create a gate `cor` that takes a cell of `~` and an
|
||
|
|
atom and produces `[~ p=a]`. Using `^.` we can cast without calling
|
||
|
|
`cor` and produce the same result.
