Functional Patterns in Ruby
summary
Claims concrete Ruby implementations of three OCaml ideas and shows they work: a funter module that uses Module.new proxy and dynamic method defs to supply per-include parameters without polluting class state, a variant.create and match exhaustiveness pattern (class.new for variants, runtime errors for unhandled or unnecessary cases), and an Option/Maybe monad with return and bind that composes operations and stops on the first none value. Code examples use Module.new, class.new, and match-based checks and demonstrate the patterns functioning as intended.
