Interface Function<A,B>

public interface Function<A,B>
Used to specify matching functions for use encoding tagged unions (i.e. sum types) in Java. See AttributeValue.match(Function, Function, Function, Function) for an example of its use.

Note: This class is based on the java.util.Function class added in Java 1.8. We cannot use the Function from Java 1.8 because this library is Java 1.6 compatible.
