package dstream

// GenerateFunc is a function that can be used to generate a new variable
// from existing variables.  The first argument is a map from
// variable names to data (whose concrete types are slices held as
// empty interfaces).  The second argument is a pre-allocated array (a
// slice provided as an interface{}) into which the new variable's
// values are to be written.  Note that the destination array is not set to
// zeros before passing to the generate function.
type GenerateFunc func(map[string]interface{}, interface{})

// applying the given function to the other variables in the Dstream.
// The new variable must not already exist in the Dstream.
