module Cat.Functor.Closed whereWhen taken as a (bi)category,
the collection of (pre)categories is, in a suitably weak sense, Cartesian
closed: there is an equivalence between the functor categories
and
We do not define the full equivalence here, leaving the natural
isomorphisms aside and focusing on the inverse functors themselves:
Curry and Uncurry.
The two conversion functions act on objects essentially in the same way as currying and uncurrying behave on functions: the difference is that we must properly stage the action on morphisms. Currying a functor fixes a morphism and we must show that is natural in It follows from a bit of calculation using the functoriality of
Curry : Functor (C ×ᶜ D) E → Functor C Cat[ D , E ]
Curry {C = C} {D = D} {E = E} F = curried where

Uncurry : Functor C Cat[ D , E ] → Functor (C ×ᶜ D) E
Uncurry {C = C} {D = D} {E = E} F = uncurried where
  import Cat.Reasoning C as C

  import Cat.Reasoning E as E
  module F = Functor F
  uncurried : Functor (C ×ᶜ D) E
  uncurried .F₀ (c , d) = F.₀ c .F₀ d
  uncurried .F₁ (f , g) = F.₁ f .η _ E.∘ F.₀ _ .F₁ gThe other direction must do slightly more calculation: Given a functor into functor-categories, and a pair of arguments, we must apply it twice: but at the level of morphisms, this involves composition in the codomain category, which throws a fair bit of complication into the functoriality constraints.
