It follows the parser's `apply` mechanism by always returning a function when given a table, enabling proper partial application and multi-argument element-wise operations. + +#### `each` Behavior Outside of Tables + +The `each` combinator gracefully handles non-table inputs by falling back to normal function application: + +```javascript +// No tables - apply normally +result1 : each @add 5 3; // 8 (normal function application) + +// Single table - element-wise +numbers : {1, 2, 3}; +result2 : each @double numbers; // {1: 2, 2: 4, 3: 6} + +// Mixed table and scalar +result3 : each @add numbers 10; // {1: 11, 2: 12, 3: 13} + +// Multiple tables +table1 : {a: 1, b: 2}; +table2 : {a: 10, b: 20}; +result4 : each @add table1 table2; // {a: 11, b: 22} +``` + +#### Nested Table Handling + +For nested tables, `each` operates on the top level only. Use explicit composition for nested operations: + +```javascript +nested : { + data: {a: 1, b: 2}, + meta: {type: "numbers"} +}; + +// Top-level only (nested tables unchanged) +result1 : each @double nested; +// Result: {data: {a: 1, b: 2}, meta: {type: "numbers"}} + +// Nested operations require explicit composition +result2 : each (each @double) nested; +// Result: {data: {a: 2, b: 4}, meta: {type: "numbers"}} + +// Or use t.map for nested operations +result3 : t.map (t.map @double) nested; +// Result: {data: {a: 2, b: 4}, meta: {type: "numbers"}} +``` + +This design ensures backward compatibility while providing powerful element-wise operations when tables are present. + +### 5. Embedded Complex Structures ✅ COMPLETED + +#### Functions and When Expressions in Tables + +```javascript +// Table with embedded function +calculator : { + add: x y -> x + y, + multiply: x y -> x * y, + classify: x -> when x is + 0 then "zero" + 1 then "one" + _ then "other" +}; + +// Usage +result : calculator.add 5 3; +classification : calculator.classify 0; +``` + +## Implementation Strategy + +### Phase 1: Core Table Operations (t. namespace) ✅ COMPLETED +1. ✅ Implement `t.map`, `t.filter`, `t.reduce` for table-specific operations +2. ✅ Implement `t.set`, `t.delete`, `t.merge` for immutable operations +3. ✅ Implement `t.pairs`, `t.keys`, `t.values`, `t.length` for information +4. ✅ Implement `t.has`, `t.get` for safe operations +5. ✅ Add comprehensive error handling with descriptive messages + +### Phase 2: Element-Wise Operations ✅ COMPLETED +1. ✅ Implement `each` combinator for multi-argument element-wise operations +2. ✅ Ensure `each` operates on top-level only for nested tables +3. ✅ Test explicit composition for nested operations +4. ✅ Maintain backward compatibility with non-table inputs + +### Phase 3: Advanced Features ✅ COMPLETED +1. ✅ Support for embedded functions and when expressions in tables +2. ⚠️ Performance optimization for large tables (pending) +3. ⚠️ Debug support with verbose logging (pending) +4. ✅ Comprehensive test coverage for edge cases + +## Current Working Examples ✅ + +### Basic Element-Wise Operations +```javascript +numbers : {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; +doubled : map @double numbers; +// Result: {1: 2, 2: 4, 3: 6, 4: 8, 5: 10} + +// Also works with t.map +t_doubled : t.map @double numbers; +// Result: {1: 2, 2: 4, 3: 6, 4: 8, 5: 10} +``` + +### Multi-Argument Element-Wise Operations +```javascript +table1 : {a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}; +table2 : {a: 10, b: 20, c: 30}; +// each combinator works correctly for all intended use cases +summed1 : each @add table1 10; // {a: 11, b: 12, c: 13} +summed2 : each @add table1 table2; // {a: 11, b: 22, c: 33} +``` + +### Immutable Updates +```javascript +person : {name: "Alice", age: 30}; +updated : t.set person "age" 31; +// Result: {name: "Alice", age: 31} +``` + +### Table Information +```javascript +person : {name: "Alice", age: 30, active: true}; +keys : t.keys person; +// Result: ["name", "age", "active"] + +values : t.values person; +// Result: ["Alice", 30, true] + +size : t.length person; +// Result: 3 + +has_name : t.has person "name"; +// Result: true + +age : t.get person "age" 0; +// Result: 30 + +email : t.get person "email" "unknown"; +// Result: "unknown" +``` + +### Embedded Functions ✅ COMPLETED +```javascript +calculator : { + add: x y -> x + y, + classify: x -> when x is + 0 then "zero" + _ then "non-zero" +}; +result : calculator.add 5 3; +// Result: 8 +``` + +### Usage Patterns for `each` vs `map` ✅ COMPLETED + +The `each` and `map` combinators serve different purposes and should be used accordingly: + +#### Use `map` for Single Table Operations +```javascript +numbers : {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; +add_ten : x -> x + 10; + +// Correct: Use map for single table operations +result : map @add_ten numbers; +// Result: {1: 11, 2: 12, 3: 13, 4: 14, 5: 15} +``` + +#### Use `each` for Multi-Argument Operations +```javascript +numbers : {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; +table1 : {a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}; +table2 : {a: 10, b: 20, c: 30}; + +// Correct: Use each for table and scalar +result1 : each @add numbers 10; +// Result: {1: 11, 2: 12, 3: 13, 4: 14, 5: 15} + +// Correct: Use each for two tables +result2 : each @add table1 table2; +// Result: {a: 11, b: 22, c: 33} + +// Correct: Use each for partial application +add_to_ten : each @add 10; +result3 : add_to_ten numbers; +// Result: {1: 11, 2: 12, 3: 13, 4: 14, 5: 15} +``` + +#### Why This Distinction? +The parser's `apply` mechanism requires functions to work with exactly 2 arguments at a time. The `each` combinator is designed for two-argument operations and follows this pattern by always returning a function when given a table, enabling proper partial application. + +## Benefits + +### 1.
