Puppet::Parser::Functions::newfunction(
  :then,
  :type => :rvalue,
  :arity => -2,
  :doc => <<-DOC
Call a [lambda](https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/lang_lambdas.html)
with the given argument unless the argument is undef. Return `undef` if argument is
`undef`, and otherwise the result of giving the argument to the lambda.

This is useful to process a sequence of operations where an intermediate
result may be `undef` (which makes the entire sequence `undef`).
The `then` function is especially useful with the function `dig` which
performs in a similar way "digging out" a value in a complex structure.

**Example:** Using `dig` and `then`

```puppet
$data = {a => { b => [{x => 10, y => 20}, {x => 100, y => 200}]}}
notice $data.dig(a, b, 1, x).then |$x| { $x * 2 }
```

Would notice the value 200

Contrast this with:

```puppet
$data = {a => { b => [{x => 10, y => 20}, {ex => 100, why => 200}]}}
notice $data.dig(a, b, 1, x).then |$x| { $x * 2 }
```

Which would notice `undef` since the last lookup of 'x' results in `undef` which
is returned (without calling the lambda given to the `then` function).

As a result there is no need for conditional logic or a temporary (non local)
variable as the result is now either the wanted value (`x`) multiplied
by 2 or `undef`.

Calls to `then` can be chained. In the next example, a structure is using an offset based on
using 1 as the index to the first element (instead of 0 which is used in the language).
We are not sure if user input actually contains an index at all, or if it is
outside the range of available names.args.

**Example:** Chaining calls to the `then` function

```puppet
# Names to choose from
$names = ['Ringo', 'Paul', 'George', 'John']

# Structure where 'beatle 2' is wanted (but where the number refers
# to 'Paul' because input comes from a source using 1 for the first
# element).

$data = ['singer', { beatle => 2 }]
$picked = assert_type(String,
  # the data we are interested in is the second in the array,
  # a hash, where we want the value of the key 'beatle'
  $data.dig(1, 'beatle')
    # and we want the index in $names before the given index
    .then |$x| { $names[$x-1] }
    # so we can construct a string with that beatle's name
    .then |$x| { "Picked Beatle '${x}'" }
)
```

Would notice "Picked Beatle 'Paul'", and would raise an error if the result
was not a String.
