It's nice how does @show works! It returned a tuple because I made a
mistake, without it, it looks like this:
julia> macro foo_op(op)
quote
dot_op = symbol(".$($op)")
docstr = "`$($op)` also works for `Foo` types!"
@show $op typeof($op)
function Base.$op(a::Foo, b::Foo)
Foo(dot_op(a.x, b.x))
end
@doc Markdown.parse(docstr) Base.$op
Base.$op
end
end
julia> for op in [+, -]
@foo_op op
end
op = +
typeof(op) = Function
