Speaking in Types How I Learned to Stop Worrying and
Love the Type System TJ Usiyan - @griotspeak © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 1
How can we examine types? © Speaking in Types -
CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 2
Examining Types in Xcode • Option click • Look at
declarations • Look at the generated header © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 3
What is a Type? © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf
San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 4
What is a Type? The description of a portion of
our system's domain. © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 5
What is a Type? Types are how we describe the
data that our system works with. © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 6
In Objective-C, Compiler puts trust in you. In Swift, you
put trust in compiler — Yakko Smirnoff I'm Sorry Dave. I'm Afraid I can't do that. © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 7

NSError NSError *error = nil; [myContext save:&error]; if (!error) {
/* "Woohoo" */ } else { /* "Oh noes!" */ } © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 9
NSError Redux NSError *error = nil; BOOL success = [myContext
save:&error]; if (success) { /* "Woohoo" */ } else { /* "Oh noes!" */ } © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 10
NSError Re-Redux do { try/*(?|!)?*/ myContext.save() } catch { }
© Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 11
Result enum Result<T> { case Error(NSError) case Success(T) } ©

"An Either by any other name would compile as sweet."
— Gilliam Shakespeare enum Either<T, U> { case Left(T) case Right(U) } © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 13

Make Illegal States Unrepresentable — Yaron Minsky let contactInfo:(PhoneNumber?, EmailAddress?)

Enums Are Delightful. enum FileLoadingResult { case Success(NSData) case LoadError(NSError)
} © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 19
Enums Are Delightful. enum Foo {} © Speaking in Types

Optionals Are Quite Nice as Well. typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, YouCanGetWith) {
YouCanGetWithNull = 0, YouCanGetWithThis, YouCanGetWithThat}; © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 23
Optionals Are Quite Nice as Well. typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, YouCanGetWith) {
YouCanGetWithNull = 0, YouCanGetWithThis, YouCanGetWithThat}; vs enum YouCanGetWith { case This, That } © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 24

Putting the 'Algebra' in Algebraic Data Types © Speaking in
Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 26
Algebra of Data Types - Zero Type Void /// The
empty tuple type. /// /// This is the default return type of /// functions for which no explicit /// return type is specified. typealias Void = () © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 27
Algebra of Data Types - Sum Types Enums enum PrimaryColor
{ case Red, Blue, Yellow } enum Either<T, U> { case Left(T) case Right(U) } let foo:Either<Bool, PrimaryColor> // 2(Bool) + 3(PrimaryColor) possible values © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 28
Algebra of Data Types - Product Types Tuples let bar:(Bool,
PrimaryColor) // 2(Bool) * 3(PrimaryColor) possible values © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 29

Functions Types Need Love Too. — Samantha Wolf © Speaking
in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 31
Functions are Maps! func myRandom() -> Int func consumeNumber(Int) //
(Int) -> () func sortNums([Int]) -> [Int] © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 32
Function Types func find<C : CollectionType where C.Generator.Element : Equatable>
(domain: C, value: C.Generator.Element) -> [C.Generator.Element] vs func find<C : CollectionType where C.Generator.Element : Equatable> (domain: C, value: C.Generator.Element) -> C.Index? vs func find<C : CollectionType where C.Generator.Element : Equatable> (domain: C, value: C.Generator.Element) -> C.Generator.Element © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 33

Optional Initializers …when illegal state is completely worth it struct
ScaleDegree { init(diatonicValue:DiatonicValue, chromaticValue:ChromaticValue) init(accidental:Accidental, diatonicValue:DiatonicValue) init?(quality:Interval.Quality, diatonic:DiatonicValue) } let scaleDegree = ScaleDegree(.Perfect, .Fifth)! © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 35
Polymorphism! © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose -

Parametric Polymorphism struct Array<T> class Thing<T> func foo<T> protocol BazableType
{ typealias T } © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 37

Higher Kinded Types © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San
Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 53
Higher Kinded Types func ==<T : Equatable>(lhs: T?, rhs: T?)
-> Bool /// Returns true if these arrays contain the same elements. func ==<T : Equatable>(lhs: [T], rhs: [T]) -> Bool /// Returns true if these arrays contain the same elements. func ==<T : Equatable>(lhs: Slice<T>, rhs: Slice<T>) -> Bool /// Returns true if these arrays contain the same elements. func ==<T : Equatable>(lhs: ContiguousArray<T>, rhs: ContiguousArray<T>) -> Bool © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 54
Higher Kinded Types How can we state that a container
holding an Equatable type is Equatable? © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 55
Higher Kinded Types How can we state that a container
holding an Equatable type is Equatable? © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 56
Higher Kinded Types We must repeat ourselves. This fact is
unfortunate. © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 57
Higher Kinded Types - Map, Filter, and Friends /// Return
an `Array` containing the results of mapping `transform` /// over `source`. func map<S : SequenceType, T>(source: S, transform: (S.Generator.Element) -> T) -> [T] /// Return an `Array` containing the results of mapping `transform` /// over `source`. func map<C : CollectionType, T>(source: C, transform: (C.Generator.Element) -> T) -> [T] © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 58

hold more meaning than in Obj-C. © Speaking in Types - CocoaConf San Jose - @griotspeak, 2015 59
