Re: mapper functions for 3.1

[David Bateman]

Ok, first hitch. As an example std::sin can accept both double and
Complex arguments. Therefore in you example

how is the map method supposed to know which version of the sin function
we are referring to? The current implemented gets around this by storing
a version of both and then picking the appropriate version when the
apply method is called?
