The type of non-empty streams

1 declaration
datadata NonEmpty a
#

Non-empty (and non-strict) list type.

Non-empty stream transformations

9 declarations
valueintersperse :: a -> NonEmpty a -> NonEmpty a
#

'intersperse x xs' alternates elements of the list with copies of x.

intersperse 0 (1 :| [2,3]) == 1 :| [0,2,0,3]
valuescanl :: Foldable f => (b -> a -> b) -> b -> f a -> NonEmpty b
#

scanl is similar to foldl, but returns a stream of successive reduced values from the left:

scanl f z [x1, x2, ...] == z :| [z `f` x1, (z `f` x1) `f` x2, ...]

Note that

last (scanl f z xs) == foldl f z xs.
valuescanr :: Foldable f => (a -> b -> b) -> b -> f a -> NonEmpty b
#

scanr is the right-to-left dual of scanl. Note that

head (scanr f z xs) == foldr f z xs.
valuescanl1 :: (a -> a -> a) -> NonEmpty a -> NonEmpty a
#

scanl1 is a variant of scanl that has no starting value argument:

scanl1 f [x1, x2, ...] == x1 :| [x1 `f` x2, x1 `f` (x2 `f` x3), ...]

Basic functions

13 declarations
valuehead :: NonEmpty a -> a
#

Extract the first element of the stream.

valuetail :: NonEmpty a -> [a]
#

Extract the possibly-empty tail of the stream.

valuelast :: NonEmpty a -> a
#

Extract the last element of the stream.

valueinit :: NonEmpty a -> [a]
#

Extract everything except the last element of the stream.

valueinits :: Foldable f => f a -> NonEmpty [a]
#

The inits function takes a stream xs and returns all the finite prefixes of xs, starting with the shortest. The result is NonEmpty because the result always contains the empty list as the first element.

inits [1,2,3] == [] :| [[1], [1,2], [1,2,3]]
inits [1] == [] :| [[1]]
inits [] == [] :| []
valuetails :: Foldable f => f a -> NonEmpty [a]
#

The tails function takes a stream xs and returns all the suffixes of xs, starting with the longest. The result is NonEmpty because the result always contains the empty list as the last element.

tails [1,2,3] == [1,2,3] :| [[2,3], [3], []]
tails [1] == [1] :| [[]]
tails [] == [] :| []

Building streams

5 declarations
valueiterate :: (a -> a) -> a -> NonEmpty a
#

iterate f x produces the infinite sequence of repeated applications of f to x.

iterate f x = x :| [f x, f (f x), ..]
valuerepeat :: a -> NonEmpty a
#

repeat x returns a constant stream, where all elements are equal to x.

valueinsert :: (Foldable f, Ord a) => a -> f a -> NonEmpty a
#

insert x xs inserts x into the last position in xs where it is still less than or equal to the next element. In particular, if the list is sorted beforehand, the result will also be sorted.

Extracting sublists

17 declarations
valuedrop :: Int -> NonEmpty a -> [a]
#

drop n xs drops the first n elements off the front of the sequence xs.

valuesplitAt :: Int -> NonEmpty a -> ([a], [a])
#

splitAt n xs returns a pair consisting of the prefix of xs of length n and the remaining stream immediately following this prefix.

'splitAt' n xs == ('take' n xs, 'drop' n xs)
xs == ys ++ zs where (ys, zs) = 'splitAt' n xs
valuespan :: (a -> Bool) -> NonEmpty a -> ([a], [a])
#

span p xs returns the longest prefix of xs that satisfies p, together with the remainder of the stream.

'span' p xs == ('takeWhile' p xs, 'dropWhile' p xs)
xs == ys ++ zs where (ys, zs) = 'span' p xs
valuepartition :: (a -> Bool) -> NonEmpty a -> ([a], [a])
#

The partition function takes a predicate p and a stream xs, and returns a pair of lists. The first list corresponds to the elements of xs for which p holds; the second corresponds to the elements of xs for which p does not hold.

'partition' p xs = ('filter' p xs, 'filter' (not . p) xs)
valuegroup :: (Foldable f, Eq a) => f a -> [NonEmpty a]
#

The group function takes a stream and returns a list of streams such that flattening the resulting list is equal to the argument. Moreover, each stream in the resulting list contains only equal elements, and consecutive equal elements of the input end up in the same stream of the output list. For example, in list notation:

Example1 expression
group "Mississippi"["M", "i", "ss", "i", "ss", "i", "pp", "i"]

Sublist predicates

1 declaration

Set-like operations

2 declarations
valuenub :: Eq a => NonEmpty a -> NonEmpty a
#

The nub function removes duplicate elements from a list. In particular, it keeps only the first occurrence of each element. (The name nub means 'essence'.) It is a special case of nubBy, which allows the programmer to supply their own inequality test.

valuenubBy :: (a -> a -> Bool) -> NonEmpty a -> NonEmpty a
#

The nubBy function behaves just like nub, except it uses a user-supplied equality predicate instead of the overloaded == function.

Zipping and unzipping streams

3 declarations
valuezipWith :: (a -> b -> c) -> NonEmpty a -> NonEmpty b -> NonEmpty c
#

The zipWith function generalizes zip. Rather than tupling the elements, the elements are combined using the function passed as the first argument.

valueunzip :: Functor f => f (a, b) -> (f a, f b)
#

This function will be made monomorphic in base-4.22, consider switching to Data.Functor.unzip

The unzip function is the inverse of the zip function.

Converting to and from a list

3 declarations
valuetoList :: NonEmpty a -> [a]
#

Convert a stream to a normal list efficiently.
