comparisonsinto
Comparisonsinto is a term used in data processing and functional programming to describe a class of operations that apply multiple predicate checks to elements of a collection and collect the results into designated outputs or sinks. The core idea is to couple the evaluation of several comparisons with a configurable destination for the results, rather than performing a single filter or map pass.
In general, a comparisonsinto operation takes two main inputs: a collection of items and a set of
Common patterns include item-centric results, where each item is annotated with a boolean vector indicating predicate
Example (item-centric): given items = [6, 7, 12] and predicates even(x) and large(x) with large(x) defined as
Applications include data validation pipelines, feature extraction, and complex filtering where multiple criteria must be tracked
