Examples

Basic Examples (1) 

Make an Association sharper:

In[1]:=
ResourceFunction[ "https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/bobs/DeployedResources/Function/\ AssociationSharpen"][<|"a" -> 1|>]
Out[1]=

Even sharper! OUCH!

In[2]:=
ResourceFunction[ "https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/bobs/DeployedResources/Function/\ AssociationSharpen"][<|"a" -> 1|>, 5]
Out[2]=

Scope (2) 

Create a sharp association:

In[3]:=
sharp = ResourceFunction[ "https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/bobs/DeployedResources/Function/\ AssociationSharpen"][<|"a" -> 1|>, 10]
Out[3]=

Copy the output, carefully. It still works:

In[4]:=
Association["a" -> 1]["a"]
Out[4]=
