Macro for Python-esque list comprehensions in Rust.
The `c!` macro implements list comprehensions similar to those found in Python,
allowing for conditionals and nested comprehensions.
# Python Syntax
```python
squares = [x*x for x in range(10)]
even_squares = [x*x for x in range(10) if x % 2 == 0]
```
# c! Syntax
```rust
let squares = c![x*x, for x in 0..10];
let even_squares = c![x*x, for x in 0..10, if x % 2 == 0];
```
Note `c!`'s has the comprehension's parts, comma-separated.
# Examples
Simpe comprehension
```rust
#[macro_use(c)]
extern crate cute;
let v = [1,2,3,4];
let v_squared = c![x*x, for x in v];
```
Conditional filtering
```rust
let squares = c![x*x, for x in 0..10, if x % 2 == 0];
assert_eq!(squares, vec![0, 4, 16, 36, 64]);
```
Nested Comprehensions
```rust
let nested = vec![vec![1,2,3], vec![4,5,6], vec![7,8,9]];
let flat: Vec<usize> = c![x, for x in y, for y in nested];
assert_eq!(flat, vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]);
```
```rust
let nested = vec![vec![1,2,3], vec![4,5,6], vec![7,8,9]];
let even_flat: Vec<usize> = c![x, for x in y, for y in nested, if x % 2 == 0];
assert_eq!(even_flat, vec![2, 4, 6, 8]);
```
Comprehensions over Iterators
```rust
let vec: Vec<i32> = vec![-4, -2, 0, 2, 4];
let output: Vec<i32> = c![x*2, for x in vec.iter()];
assert_eq!(output, vec![-8, -4, 0, 4, 8]);
```
```rust
let vec: Vec<i32> = vec![-4, -2, 0, 2, 4];
let output: Vec<i32> = c![x, for x in vec.iter(), if *x >= 0i32];
assert_eq!(output, vec![0, 2, 4]);
```
Function Application
```rust
let vec: Vec<i32> = vec![-4, -2, 0, 2, 4];
let output: Vec<i32> = c![x.abs(), for x in vec.iter()];
assert_eq!(output, vec![4, 2, 0, 2, 4]);
```
```rust
fn square(x:i32) -> i32 {
x*x
}
let vec: Vec<i32> = vec![-4, -2, 0, 2, 4];
let squares: Vec<i32> = c![square(x), for x in vec];
assert_eq!(squares, vec![16, 4, 0, 4, 16]);
```
