Lecture "Generic functions" as part of Course:Lambdas in Koblenz

Description

Generic functions à la datatype-generic programming are functions that are parameterized in the shape of data types. This is to be compared with polymorphic functions that are parameterized in types. We introduce a simple form of datatype-generic programming with the help of generalized folds (catamorphisms) which in turn are based on the notion of fold algebras. In passing, we also sketch the "Scrap your boilerplate" (SYB) style of generic programming.
