These functions allow you to wait for multiple futures to resolve and "map" the separate values from all of those futures into a new value.
Here is the corresponding functionality for the
Task
type in Elm as well as a similar idea in this promise library for Haxe.I chose to use the
mapN
name (as Elm does) because it seems more easily-understandable than a name likeliftA2
used in Haskell. I also chose to implementmap5
in terms ofmap4
mostly because it's much more terse than lots of nestedflatMap
s, but the code might be a little less readable as a result.
