Constructs a new function with no arguments

Parameters:

name - the name of this function

body - the ranking expression that defines this function

ExpressionFunction

public ExpressionFunction(String name,
 List<String> arguments,
 RankingExpression body)

Constructs a new function

Parameters:

name - the name of this function

Method Details

getName

public String getName()

arguments

public List<String> arguments()

Returns an immutable list of the arguments of this

getBody

public RankingExpression getBody()

argumentTypes

public Map<String,com.yahoo.tensor.TensorType> argumentTypes()

Returns the types of the arguments of this, if specified. The keys of this may be any subset of the arguments

returnType

public Optional<com.yahoo.tensor.TensorType> returnType()

Returns the return type of this, or empty if not specified

withName

public ExpressionFunction withName(String name)

public ExpressionFunction withArgument(String argument)

Returns a copy of this with the given argument added (if not already present)

withArgument

public ExpressionFunction withArgument(String argument,
 com.yahoo.tensor.TensorType type)

Returns a copy of this with the given argument (if not present) and argument type added

expand

public ExpressionFunction.Instance expand(SerializationContext context,
 List<ExpressionNode> argumentValues,
 Deque<String> path)

Creates and returns an instance of this function based on the given arguments. If function calls are nested, this call may produce additional functions.

Parameters:

context - the context used to expand this

argumentValues - the arguments to instantiate on.

path - the expansion path leading to this.

Returns:

the script function instance created.

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object
