/// An event sink.
///
/// This primitive is a way of generating streams of events. One can send
/// input values into a sink and generate a stream that fires all these inputs
/// as events:
///
/// ```
/// # use carboxyl::Sink;
/// // A new sink
/// let sink = Sink::new();
///
/// // Make an iterator over a stream.
/// let mut events = sink.stream().events();
///
/// // Send a value into the sink
/// sink.send(5);
///
/// // The stream
/// assert_eq!(events.next(), Some(5));
/// ```
///
/// You can also feed a sink with an iterator:
///
/// ```
/// # use carboxyl::Sink;
/// # let sink = Sink::new();
/// # let mut events = sink.stream().events();
/// sink.feed(20..40);
/// assert_eq!(events.take(4).collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec![20, 21, 22, 23]);
/// ```
///
/// # Asynchronous calls
///
/// It is possible to send events into the sink asynchronously using the methods
/// `send_async` and `feed_async`. Note though, that this will void some
/// guarantees on the order of events. In the following example, it is unclear,
/// which event is the first in the stream:
///
/// ```
/// # use carboxyl::Sink;
/// let sink = Sink::new();
/// let mut events = sink.stream().events();
/// sink.send_async(13);
/// sink.send_async(22);
/// let first = events.next().unwrap();
/// assert!(first == 13 || first == 22);
/// ```
///
/// `feed_async` provides a workaround, as it preserves the order of events from
/// the iterator. However, any event sent into the sink after a call to it, may
/// come at any point between the iterator events.

/// A stream of events.
///
/// Conceptually a stream can be thought of as a series of discrete events that
/// occur at specific times. They are ordered by a transaction system. This
/// means that firings of disjoint events can not interfere with each other. The
/// consequences of one event are atomically reflected in dependent quantities.
///
/// Streams provide a number of primitive operations. These can be used to
/// compose streams and combine them with signals. For instance, streams can be
/// mapped over with a function, merged with another stream of the same type or
/// filtered by some predicate.
///
/// # Algebraic laws
///
/// Furthermore, streams satisfy certain algebraic properties that are useful to
/// reason about them.
///
/// ## Monoid
///
/// For once, streams of the same type form a **monoid** under merging. The
/// neutral element in this context is `Stream::never()`. So the following laws
/// always hold for streams `a`, `b` and `c` of the same type:
///
/// - Left identity: `Stream::never().merge(&a) == a`,
/// - Right identity: `a.merge(&Stream::never()) == a`,
/// - Associativity: `a.merge(&b).merge(&c) == a.merge(&b.merge(&c))`.
///
/// *Note that equality in this context is not actually implemented as such,
/// since comparing two (potentially infinite) streams is a prohibitive
/// operation. Instead, the expressions above can be used interchangably and
/// behave identically.*
///
/// ## Functor
///
/// Under the mapping operation streams also become a functor. A functor is a
/// generic type like `Stream` with some mapping operation that takes a function
/// `Fn(A) -> B` to map a `Stream<A>` to a `Stream<B>`. Algebraically it
/// satisfies the following laws:
///
/// - The identity function is preserved: `a.map(|x| x) == a`,
/// - Function composition is respected: `a.map(f).map(g) == a.map(|x| g(f(x)))`.
