Description

Provides dispatching implementations suitable for functional programming paradigms. The framework provides a mechanism for attaching guards to functions similar to Erlang, while also providing the safety of assertions reminiscent of Eiffel.

Future

Add default function when nothing else matches
Add compatibility layer with S3/S4
