Exploring Loosely Coupled Recursion in JavaScript with Tick-Tock Functionality

This document explores loosely coupled recursion in JavaScript through a whimsical "tick-tock" function. The implementation utilizes higher-order functions and references to create a pattern that alternates between the "tick" and "tock" responses, showcasing the concept of recursion in a playful manner. It delves into the mechanics of how tick and tock functions work together, providing examples and insights into function types and guarantees. This serves as a foundation for understanding more complex recursive structures and typing systems in functional programming.

  2. JavaScript var tick = function (n) { return n > 0 ? "tick " + tock(n) : ""; }; var tock = function (n) { return "tock " + tick(n-1); }; tick(2); // "tick tock tick tock "

  3. λ-Calc + Refs let (tick,tock) = (ref undef, ref undef) tick := \n. n > 0 ? "tick " + !tock n : "" tock := \n. "tock " + !tick (n-1) !tick 2 // "tick tock tick tock "

  4. λ-Calc + Refs let (tick,tock) = (ref undef, ref undef) tick := \n. n > 0 ? "tick " + !tock n : "" tock := \n. "tock " + !tick (n-1) !tick 2 // "tick tock tick tock "

  5. Simply-Typed λ-Calc + Refs val tick : ref (int -> str) let tick = ref (\_. "") val tock : ref (int -> str) let tock = ref (\_. "") tick := \n. n > 0 ? "tick " + !tock n : "" tock := \n. "tock " + !tick (n-1) !tick 2 // "tick tock tick tock "

  6. Simply-Typed λ-Calc + Refs val tick : ref (int -> str) let tick = ref (\_. "") val tock : ref (int -> str) let tock = ref (\_. "") tick := \n. n > 0 ? "tick " + !tock n : "" tock := \n. "tock " + !tick (n-1) !tick 2 // "tick tock tick tock "

"tick " + !tock n : "" val f_tock : (*tick: int -> str) => int -> str let f_tock n = "tock " + !tick (n-1) tick := f_tick tock := f_tock // Rely: { *tick: int -> str , *tock: int -> str } // Guar: { *tick: int -> str , *tock: int -> str } !tick 2 // well-typed; "tick tock tick tock "
