% \begin{documentation}
%
% \LaTeX3 implements a data structure called a `property list' which allows 
% arbitrary information to be stored and accessed using keywords rather than
% numerical indexing.
%
% A property list might contain a set of keys such as "name", "age", and "ID",
% which each have individual values that can be saved and retrieved.

% \subsection{Mapping functions}
%
% \begin{macro}{\prop_map_function:NN}
% \begin{macro}{\prop_map_function:cN}
% \begin{macro}{\prop_map_function:Nc}
% \begin{macro}{\prop_map_function:cc}
% \begin{macro}{\prop_map_function_aux:w}
%    Maps a function on every entry in the property list.  The
%    function must take 2 arguments: a key and a value.
%
% First, some failed attempts:
% \begin{verbatim}
% \cs_new_nopar:Npn \prop_map_function:NN #1#2{
%   \exp_after:wN \prop_map_function_aux:w
%   \exp_after:wN #2 \toks_use:N #1 \q_prop{}\q_prop \q_no_value \q_stop
% }
% \cs_new_nopar:Npn \prop_map_function_aux:w #1\q_prop#2\q_prop#3{
%   \if_predicate:w \tl_if_empty_p:n{#2}
%     \exp_after:wN \prop_map_break:
%   \fi:
%   #1{#2}{#3}
%   \prop_map_function_aux:w #1
% }
% \end{verbatim}
% problem with the above implementation is that an empty key stops the mapping but all
% other functions in the module allow the use of empty keys (as one value)
% \begin{verbatim}
% \cs_set_nopar:Npn \prop_map_function:NN #1#2{
%   \exp_after:wN \prop_map_function_aux:w
%   \exp_after:wN #2 \toks_use:N #1 \q_prop \q_no_value \q_prop \q_no_value 
% }
% \cs_set_nopar:Npn \prop_map_function_aux:w #1\q_prop#2\q_prop#3{
%   \quark_if_no_value:nF{#2}
%     {
%      #1{#2}{#3}
%      \prop_map_function_aux:w #1
%     }
% }
% \end{verbatim}
% problem with the above implementation is that |\quark_if_no_value:nF| is fairly slow and
%  if |\quark_if_no_value:NF| is used instead we have to do an assignment thus
%  making the mapping not expandable (is that important?)
%
% Here's the current version of the code:
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_set_nopar:Npn \prop_map_function:NN #1#2 {
    \exp_after:wN \prop_map_function_aux:w
    \exp_after:wN #2 \toks_use:N #1 \q_prop \q_nil \q_prop \q_no_value \q_stop
}
\cs_set:Npn \prop_map_function_aux:w #1 \q_prop #2 \q_prop #3 {
  \if_meaning:w \q_nil #2
    \exp_after:wN \prop_map_break:
  \fi:
  #1{#2}{#3}
  \prop_map_function_aux:w #1
}
%    \end{macrocode}
% (potential) problem with the above implementation is that it will
% return true if |#2| contains more than just |\q_nil| thus executing
% whatever follows. Claim: this can't happen |:-)| so we should be ok
