Referenceables.jl provides an interface for readable and writable
reference to an element of an array or dictionary. The entry point
function is referenceable
. Wrapping a container x
yields a new
view y = referenceable(x)
to x
where indexing to it yields a
reference r = y[i]
. This reference can be used to read value = r[]
or write r[] = value
a value.
