[Santa walks by as Bernard, the head elf, is yelling at the other elves..]
[Bernard (to his staff)] LET'S GO ELVES! LET'S GO! KEEP BOXING TOYS!
[Santa] Bernard.. Seems like it's not going well.
[Bernard] Was anyone asking you!?
[Santa] Did you deploy the new toy boxing API yesterday?
[Bernard] No, we didn't get to it. Julius called out sick.
[Santa] Taking too many sick days shows a lack of commitment. We should get rid of Julius.
[Bernard (rolling eyes)] And then not replace him? Yeah. No Thanks.
[Santa] Well it was on the sprint and today's the last day of the sprint.
[Bernard] We don't deploy on Fridays.
[Santa] Aren't we doing continuous deployment now? You had this whole big thing at the last shareholder meeting about it?
[Bernard] No. For the 100th time. We're doing continuous delivery, which is completely different and gives us control over when we deploy.
[Santa] Well I need that BoxToys type. If you can't handle this project, Bernard, there are plenty of other elves who can. I need your full commitment.
[Bernard] Ok. Fine. I'll do it myself.
[Santa] That's what I like to see!
The BoxToys type takes two arguments:
- the name of a toy
- the number of of boxes we need for this toy
And the type will return a tuple containing that toy that number of times.
But there's one little thing.. We need to support the number of boxes being a union. That means our resulting tuple can also be a union. Check out test_nutcracker in the tests to see how that works.
