-- This module provides tools for generating and manipulating "blip
-- streams".  The blip stream abstraction is not fundamental to 'Auto', but
-- rather, like /interval/, is a very useful semantic tool for the
-- denotation of many programs, games, simulations, and computations in
-- general that you are likely to write with this library.

-- $blip
--
-- In the context of inputs/outputs of 'Auto', a @'Blip' a@ represents
-- a "blip stream" that occasionally, in isolated incidents, emits a value
-- of type @a@.
--
-- For example, @'Auto'' a ('Blip' b)@ is an 'Auto'' that a stream of @a@'s
-- as input and outputs a *blip stream* that occasionally emits with a @b@.
-- An @'Auto'' ('Blip' a) b@ is an 'Auto'' that takes a *blip stream* that
-- occasionally emits with a @a@ and outputs a stream of @b@'s.
--
-- If an 'Auto' takes or outputs a "blip stream", it comes with some
-- "semantic" contracts on to how the stream behaves.  The main contract is
-- that your blip stream should only output on (meaningfully) "isolated"
-- incidents, and never on continuous regions of the input stream.
--
-- By this, we mean that every emitted value is (conceptually) emitted
-- "alone", and not as a part of continuous on/off chunks.
--
-- == Example situations
--
-- A good example would be, say, a blip stream that emits every time
-- a user/player sends a certain type of command.  Or a blip stream that
-- emits every time a slowly-moving value crosses over from positive to
-- negative.
--
-- A bad example would be a blip stream that emits when a player /doesn't/
-- send a certain less-common type of command.  Or a blip stream that emits
-- whenever a slowly-moving value /is/ positive or negative.
--
-- == Contrast with /Intervals/
--
-- Blip streams are contrasted with another semantic tool: stream
-- _intervals_, manipulated with "Control.Auto.Interval".  /Intervals/ are
-- adjacent/contiguous "chunks" of on/off behavior, and are on or off for
-- contiguous "chunks" at a time.  So when deciding whether or not you want
-- to use the semantics of blip streams or the semantics of /Interval/,
-- consider: is this behavior going to be "on/off" for chunks at a time
-- (such as an interval that is on whenever a slowly-moving value is
-- positive)?  Or is it something that is usually "not on", but makes
-- separate, isolated, "blips" --- each emitted value alone and
-- (semantically) isolated from the rest.
--
-- == Motivations
--
-- The main motivations of the semantic concept of blip streams (and why they
-- even exist in the first place) is probably for how well they integrate
-- with /Interval/ semantics and, with intervals, the various powerful
-- switching combinators from "Control.Auto.Switch".  Many of the
-- combinators in that module are designed so that switches can be
-- "triggered" by blip stream emissions.
--
-- Blip streams have many usages, as will be explained later.  You'll also
-- find that blip streams work well with their cousins, /interval/ streams.
-- But perhaps the use case that stands out above all (and is alone enough
-- to motivate their existence) is in switching.
--
-- == "Blip semantics"
--
-- We say that a blip stream has "blip semantics" when it is used in
-- a way that its emitted values are "isolated", "alone", "discrete", in
-- this way.  When it is not, we say that the stream "breaks" blip
-- semantics.
--
-- Note that this can't really be enforced by the types, so if you're
-- a library or framework developer, it's up to you to take care that the
-- blip streams you offer all conform to blip semantics.  However, if
-- you're just making an application, you can use most of the combinators
-- in this library/module and not worry.
--
-- Also note that in many of these cases, "blip semantics" depends on how
-- the 'Auto's are /composed/, and what they are composed to.  If the value
-- in question is "almost always" positive and only negative at isolated
-- points in time, then such a "blip stream that emits whenever the value
-- is negative" has proper blip semantics.  If the value in question is
-- slowly-moving and meandering, and might spend a lot of time negative at
-- a time, then the same blip stream would /not/ preserve blip semantics.
--
-- === Why semantics are important
--
-- Why should you care?  I can't tell you want to do, right?
--
-- Well, for the same reason that typeclasses like 'Eq', 'Functor', and
-- 'Monad' have laws.  Yeah, you can make any instance you want that
-- satisfies the types.  But almost all of the usefulness of those
-- typeclasses comes from our ability to "reason" about the behavior of
-- their instances, and to be able to develop an intuition about their
-- usage.  We would be surprised if we had an 'Eq' instance where @x == x@
-- and @x /= x@ are both true...and it would completely break down any
-- attempt at understanding what 'Eq' code "means".
--
-- You can think of "blip semantics" as being the "laws" of blip streams.
-- If we assume that things follow blip semantics properly, then we can
-- reason about them in a unified and useful way.  If we can trust that
-- blip streams actually behave "like blip streams", then blip streams
-- become an extremely useful tool for denoting certain behaviors and
-- programs.
--
-- If we can't...then it becomes a lot less useful :)
--
-- In particular, one big use case for blip streams (the switching
-- mechanisms "Control.Auto.Switch") all only "work well" when your blip
-- streams follow proper semantics.
--
-- === Combinators preserve semantics
--
-- /Most/ of the combinators in this module try their best to preserve blip
-- semantics.  That is, you can't use them in a way that will produce
-- a non-semantic-abiding blip stream.  You can "trust" them, and if you
-- use only safe combinators, you don't ever have to worry.  Well. That
-- much, at least.
--
-- There are a few notable exceptions:
--
-- * 'every', 'eachAt', 'eachAt_', when you pass in an interval of 1.
-- * 'onChange', when the input value isn't ever expected to stay the same
-- between steps.
-- * 'emitOn', 'emitJusts', 'onJusts', in the cases mentioned in the
-- documentation for 'emitOn'.
--
--
-- == Practical examples
--
-- There are many practical examples of using blip streams in the various
-- examples in <https://github.com/mstksg/auto-examples auto-examples>,
-- especially from /chatbot/.  There, blip streams are used in many
-- situations, primarily streams for players sending certain commands. It's
-- also used in /hangman/, to signify player events such as victory,
-- good/bad guesses, etc.
--
-- Blip streams work very closely with the various switching combinators in
-- "Control.Auto.Switch".  If anything, if there is only one reason to use
-- blip streams, it's with the various switching mechanisms in that module.
-- All of the switching combinators rely on the fact that your blip streams
-- follow proper semantics, further emphasizing the importance of
-- conforming to the semantics.
--
-- == For library, framework, and back-end developers
--
-- Remember that this module is only meant to export "safe" combinators
-- that try their best to maintain blip semantics.  Think of this module
-- as a useful guideline to help programmers maintain semantics at
-- compile-time, by only exporting not-as-dangerous combinators.
--
-- However, all of these rules are for the denotation of your /program
-- logic/.  These rules are for the benefit of reasoning about the behavior
-- of your program at the logic level.
--
-- As a library or framework or back-end developer, however, you aren't
-- programming at the logic level, but rather at the gritty implementation
-- level.  So, you might want to provide blip streams and for your
-- library users or application developers or the game logic you are
-- writing.
--
-- For this, you might find the hidden constructors and tools in
-- "Control.Auto.Blip.Internal" helpful, and there is more information at
-- the documentation for that module.
