Class Rewritable

Extension methods for IRewritable<T> implementations.

Inheritance

Object
Rewritable

Declaration

public static class Rewritable : Object

Returns an array containing each immediate child of value paired with a function to replace the child. This is typically useful when you need to replace a node's children one at a time, such as during mutation testing.

The replacement function can be seen as the "context" of the child; calling the function with a new child "plugs the hole" in the context.
