Memory Example
--------------

[](#memory-example)

```
use Yab\Cerebrum\Memory;

class TaskService
{
    use Memory;

    public function __construct(TaskRespository $taskRepository)
    {
        $this->repository = $taskRepository;
        // provided by Memory
        $this->memoryDuration(15);
        $this->forgetful([
            'all'
        ]);
    }

    public function all()
    {
        return $this->remember($this->repository->all());
    }

    public function findById($id)
    {
        return $this->remember($this->repository->findById($id));
    }

    public function findByIdWithLongerCache($id)
    {
        return $this->remember($this->repository->findById($id), 1440);
    }

    public function update($id, $data)
    {
        $this->forget($id);
        return $this->repository->update($id, $data);
    }
}
```

Regarding `$this->forgetful` if you do not set it, then `Memory` will parse your class for all functions and clear any related caches it can find.

The `remember` function on the other hand, will collect a value and store it in the cache, returning the cached version. The `forget` with a parameter will find caches with similar values and clear your caches.

Linguistics Example
-------------------

[](#linguistics-example)

```
use Yab\Cerebrum\Linguistics;

class TaskService
{
    use Linguistics;

    public function __construct(TaskRespository $taskRepository)
    {
        $this->repository = $taskRepository;
    }

    public function getKeyWords($id)
    {
        return $this->getKeyWords($this->repository->findById($id)->text);
    }

    public function search($searchString)
    {
        if ($this->isQuestion($seachString)) {
            return $this->repository->search();
        }
    }
}
```

Perception Examples
-------------------

[](#perception-examples)

```
use Yab\Cerebrum\Perception;

class TaskService
{
    use Perception;

    public function __construct(TaskRespository $taskRepository)
    {
        $this->repository = $taskRepository;
    }

    public function getNormalizedData()
    {
        $scores = $this->repository->pluck('score')->all();
        return $this->normalize($scores);
    }

    public function predictDay()
    {
        $records = $this->repository->pluck('day', 'sleep_hours', 'active_hours')->all();
        // $records = ['monday' => [6, 1], 'wednesday' => [4, 0]]
        $result = $this->supervised()->samples($records)->predict([5,2]);
        // $result = monday
    }

    public function getExpectingDay()
    {
        // This is a very simple frequency tool
        $records = $this->repository->pluck('day')->all();
        // $records = ['monday', 'tuesday', 'wednesday', 'tuesday', 'friday', 'monday', 'tuesday']
        $result = $this->ai()->samples($records)->expecting();
        // $result = tuesday
    }
}
