/**
  A computed property transforms an object literal with object's accessor function(s) into a property.

  By default the function backing the computed property will only be called
  once and the result will be cached. You can specify various properties
  that your computed property depends on. This will force the cached
  result to be recomputed if the dependencies are modified.

  In the following example we declare a computed property - `fullName` - by calling
  `.Ember.computed()` with property dependencies (`firstName` and `lastName`) as leading arguments and getter accessor function. The `fullName` getter function
  will be called once (regardless of how many times it is accessed) as long
  as its dependencies have not changed. Once `firstName` or `lastName` are updated
  any future calls (or anything bound) to `fullName` will incorporate the new
  values.

  ```javascript
  let Person = Ember.Object.extend({
    // these will be supplied by `create`
    firstName: null,
    lastName: null,

    fullName: Ember.computed('firstName', 'lastName', function() {
      let firstName = this.get('firstName'),
          lastName  = this.get('lastName');

      return firstName + ' ' + lastName;
    })
  });

  let tom = Person.create({
    firstName: 'Tom',
    lastName: 'Dale'
  });

  tom.get('fullName') // 'Tom Dale'
  ```

  You can also define what Ember should do when setting a computed property by providing additional function (`set`) in hash argument.
  If you try to set a computed property, it will try to invoke setter accessor function with the key and
  value you want to set it to as arguments.

  ```javascript
  let Person = Ember.Object.extend({
    // these will be supplied by `create`
    firstName: null,
    lastName: null,

    fullName: Ember.computed('firstName', 'lastName', {
      get(key) {
        let firstName = this.get('firstName'),
            lastName  = this.get('lastName');

        return firstName + ' ' + lastName;
      },
      set(key, value) {
        let [firstName, lastName] = value.split(' ');

        this.set('firstName', firstName);
        this.set('lastName', lastName);

        return value;
      }
    })
  });

  let person = Person.create();

  person.set('fullName', 'Peter Wagenet');
  person.get('firstName'); // 'Peter'
  person.get('lastName');  // 'Wagenet'
  ```

  You can overwrite computed property with normal property (no longer computed), that won't change if dependencies change, if you set computed property and it won't have setter accessor function defined.

  You can also mark computed property as `.readOnly()` and block all attempts to set it.

  ```javascript
  let Person = Ember.Object.extend({
    // these will be supplied by `create`
    firstName: null,
    lastName: null,

    fullName: Ember.computed('firstName', 'lastName', {
      get(key) {
        let firstName = this.get('firstName');
        let lastName  = this.get('lastName');

        return firstName + ' ' + lastName;
      }
    }).readOnly()
  });

  let person = Person.create();
  person.set('fullName', 'Peter Wagenet'); // Uncaught Error: Cannot set read-only property "fullName" on object: <(...):emberXXX>
  ```

/**
  This helper returns a new property descriptor that wraps the passed
  computed property function. You can use this helper to define properties
  with mixins or via `Ember.defineProperty()`.

  If you pass a function as an argument, it will be used as a getter. A computed
  property defined in this way might look like this:

  ```js
  let Person = Ember.Object.extend({
    init() {
      this._super(...arguments);

      this.firstName = 'Betty';
      this.lastName = 'Jones';
    },

    fullName: Ember.computed('firstName', 'lastName', function() {
      return `${this.get('firstName')} ${this.get('lastName')}`;
    })
  });

  let client = Person.create();

  client.get('fullName'); // 'Betty Jones'

  client.set('lastName', 'Fuller');
  client.get('fullName'); // 'Betty Fuller'
  ```

  You can pass a hash with two functions, `get` and `set`, as an
  argument to provide both a getter and setter:

  ```js
  let Person = Ember.Object.extend({
    init() {
      this._super(...arguments);

      this.firstName = 'Betty';
      this.lastName = 'Jones';
    },

    fullName: Ember.computed('firstName', 'lastName', {
      get(key) {
        return `${this.get('firstName')} ${this.get('lastName')}`;
      },
      set(key, value) {
        let [firstName, lastName] = value.split(/\s+/);
        this.setProperties({ firstName, lastName });
        return value;
      }
    });
  })

  let client = Person.create();
  client.get('firstName'); // 'Betty'

  client.set('fullName', 'Carroll Fuller');
  client.get('firstName'); // 'Carroll'
  ```

  The `set` function should accept two parameters, `key` and `value`. The value
  returned from `set` will be the new value of the property.

  _Note: This is the preferred way to define computed properties when writing third-party
  libraries that depend on or use Ember, since there is no guarantee that the user
  will have [prototype Extensions](http://emberjs.com/guides/configuring-ember/disabling-prototype-extensions/) enabled._

  The alternative syntax, with prototype extensions, might look like:

  ```js
  fullName: function() {
    return this.get('firstName') + ' ' + this.get('lastName');
  }.property('firstName', 'lastName')
  ```
