;;; cache.el --- Caching things -*- lexical-binding: t -*-
;; Author: William Carroll <wpcarro@gmail.com>

;;; Commentary:
;; An immutable cache data structure.
;;
;; This is like a sideways stack, that you can pull values out from and re-push
;; to the top.  It'd be like a stack supporting push, pop, pull.
;;
;; This isn't a key-value data-structure like you might expect from a
;; traditional cache.  The name is subject to change, but the underlying idea of
;; a cache remains the same.
;;
;; Think about prescient.el, which uses essentially an LRU cache integrated into
;; counsel to help create a "clairovoyant", self-organizing list.
;;
;; Use-cases:
;; - Keeps an cache of workspaces sorted as MRU with an LRU eviction strategy.

;;; Code:

(require 'prelude)
(require 'struct)
