[barcen, `|%`, %brcn](#brcn)
============================
Build Core
`|%` is a natural rune that produces a [core](). `|%` takes a list of
[arm]()s . The list must be closed with a `--`.
The product of `|%` is similar to an object with named properties
containing either functions or data. A `|%` accepts both [dry or
`%elm`]() and [wet or `%ash`]() arms. For more about variance, see the
[glossary]().

Sample
------
`p` is a [`map`]() with [`++term`]() keys and [`++foot`]() values, which
are called arms.

Here we create a core with two arms `n`, a constant and `g`, a simple
funciton. `g` adds our constant `n` to whatever is passed to it.
/~zod/try=>
=a |%
++ l |%
++ r 100
++ s 4

++ g |= b=@
(div (add b r:l) s:l)

Extending our previous example a bit, we nest a core inside our arm `l`
and make our [gate]() `g` a bit more complicated. `g` now computes the
sum of its argument and the arm `r` inside `l`, and divides that by `s`
inside `l`.

[`++yo`](), found in `hoon.hoon`, uses `|%` to create a core whose arms
contain constant data for calculating time. As the following examples
shows, `|%` is also used to encapsulate arms that perform calculations.

[`++si`](), found in `hoon.hoon`, uses `|%` to create a core whose arms
contain gates used to calculate with signed integers, [`@s`](). In this
case our core is made up entirely of gates.
