    Abstract

    We present a generalization of patterns as used in definitions in functional languages, called application patterns. They consist of a function applied to arguments. While matchin such a pattern against an actual argument, inverse functions are used to find the binding of variables to values. Application patterns are universal in the sense that they include list, tuple, algebraic and n+k patterns.
