About The Project

This is a .NET port of Francisco (Paco) Est�vez's JavaSealedUnions.

In computer science, a tagged union, also called a variant, variant record, choice type, discriminated union, disjoint union, sum type or coproduct, is a data structure used to hold a value that could take on several different, but fixed, types.

— Wikipedia, Tagged Union

And apparently now "sealed union" works, too. This structure is the counterpart to the tuple. A tuple allows you to form expressions which model data0 and data1 and data2; a tagged union allows you to model data0 or data1 or data2. Several languages either support this structure natively, or have supplied a library implementing it. The sealed union flavor is a simple, elegant implementation of such a library, so here it is for .NET.

Usage

A simple way to get a feel for the workings of this library would be to clone this repository and run the xUnit tests. One implements the Tennis kata (see The Tennis kata revisited by Mark Seemann).

Roadmap

• Improve documentation
• Integrate with C# 9 switch pattern matching

See the open issues for a full list of proposed features (and known issues).
