Binding is the act of tying together a function to some
arguments for deferred (lazy) evaluation. Named lazy
functions require a bit of typing. Unlike (unnamed) lambda expressions,
we need to write a functor somewhere offline, detached from the call site.
If you wish to transform a plain function, member function or member variable
to a lambda expression, bind
is your friend.

Take note that binding functions, member functions or member variables is monomorphic. Rather than binding functions, the preferred way is to write true generic and polymorphic lazy functions. |
There is a set of overloaded bind
template functions. Each bind(x)
function generates a suitable binder object.
