After 5 hours sleep and a 6 hour meeting, on the flight home I apparently have invented coterms while thinking about pattern matching 🤷‍♀️

Boarders

@julesh is that different than terms of a codata type (type that you interact with as codomains)?

@boarders I think it's a different thing, but it wouldn't surprise me much if they're closely related

@julesh @boarders they are, once you have terms + coterms for both data and codata, you get an involutive duality between them. thats what im working on for Jermaine right now

@boarders @julesh kinda, coterms are like case statements for data. The dual thing would be co-case statements for codata.
