Description

The These type and associated operations. Now enhanced with Control.Lens magic!

Synopsis

Documentation

data These a b Source

The These type represents values with two non-exclusive possibilities.

This can be useful to represent combinations of two values, where the combination is defined if either input is. Algebraically, the type These A B represents (A + B + AB), which doesn't factor easily into sums and products--a type like Either A (B, Maybe A) is unclear and awkward to use.

These has straightforward instances of Functor, Monad, &c., and behaves like a hybrid error/writer monad, as would be expected.

Instances

Functions to get rid of These

these :: (a -> c) -> (b -> c) -> (a -> b -> c) -> These a b -> cSource

Case analysis for the These type.

fromThese :: a -> b -> These a b -> (a, b)Source

Takes two default values and produces a tuple.

mergeThese :: (a -> a -> a) -> These a a -> aSource

Coalesce with the provided operation.

Traversals

here :: Applicative f => (a -> f b) -> These a t -> f (These b t)Source

A Traversal of the first half of a These, suitable for use with Control.Lens.

there :: Applicative f => (a -> f b) -> These t a -> f (These t b)Source

A Traversal of the second half of a These, suitable for use with Control.Lens.

Prisms

_This :: (Choice p, Applicative f) => p a (f a) -> p (These a b) (f (These a b))Source

A Prism selecting the This constructor.

_That :: (Choice p, Applicative f) => p b (f b) -> p (These a b) (f (These a b))Source

A Prism selecting the That constructor.

_These :: (Choice p, Applicative f) => p (a, b) (f (a, b)) -> p (These a b) (f (These a b))Source

A Prism selecting the These constructor. These names are ridiculous!

Case selections

justThis :: These a b -> Maybe aSource

justThis = preview _This

justThat :: These a b -> Maybe bSource

justThat = preview _That

justThese :: These a b -> Maybe (a, b)Source

justThese = preview _These

catThis :: [These a b] -> [a]Source

Select all This constructors from a list.

catThat :: [These a b] -> [b]Source

Select all That constructors from a list.

catThese :: [These a b] -> [(a, b)]Source

Select all These constructors from a list.

partitionThese :: [These a b] -> ([(a, b)], ([a], [b]))Source

Select each constructor and partition them into separate lists.

Case predicates

Map operations

mapThese :: (a -> c) -> (b -> d) -> These a b -> These c dSource

Bifunctor map.

mapThis :: (a -> c) -> These a b -> These c bSource

mapThis = over here

mapThat :: (b -> d) -> These a b -> These a dSource

mapThat = over there
