   Most of these would be caught at compile time in a language like Elm or (to a lesser extent) Haskell. A common pattern in some of these languages with actually strong type systems is to encode these failure possibility points in the type of

    Of course Mandarin is a written system. Pop music from Hong Kong is usually in what basically amounts to Cantonese-pronounced Mandarin. That's why they sing 是 instead of 系 and it's why people recommend NOT using pop music as a lea

    There are different types of FRP implementations. In Elm terminology, monadic FRP allows the definition of a function join : Signal (Signal a) -> Signal a, which would allow you to dynamically create (and use) Signals at runtime. Now ima
