stream_example seq

This command demonstrates generating list streams. It generates numbers from the first argument to the second argument just like the builtin seq command does.

Examples:

stream_example seq 1 10

[1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10]

stream_example seq 1 10 | describe

list<int> (stream)

stream_example sum

This command demonstrates consuming list streams. It consumes a stream of numbers and calculates the sum just like the builtin math sum command does.

Examples:

seq 1 5 | stream_example sum

15

stream_example collect-external

This command demonstrates transforming streams into external streams. The list (or stream) of strings on input will be concatenated into an external stream (raw input) on stdout.

[Hello "\n" world how are you] | stream_example collect-external

Hello
