val of_list : 'a t -> 'a t

of_list is the identity function. It is useful so that the List module matches the same signature that other container modules do, namely:

      val of_list : 'a List.t -> 'a t

val nth : 'a t -> int -> 'a option

val nth_exn : 'a t -> int -> 'a

val rev : 'a t -> 'a t

List reversal.

val rev_append : 'a t -> 'a t -> 'a t

List.rev_append l1 l2 reverses l1 and concatenates it to l2. This is equivalent to (List.rev l1) @ l2, but rev_append is more efficient.

val unordered_append : 'a t -> 'a t -> 'a t

List.unordered_append l1 l2 has the same elements as l1 @ l2, but in some unspecified order. Generally takes time proportional to length of first list, but is O(1) if either list is empty.

val rev_map : 'a t -> f:('a -> 'b) -> 'b t

List.rev_map f l gives the same result as List.rev (ListLabels.map f l), but is more efficient.

val fold_left : 'a t -> init:'b -> f:('b -> 'a -> 'b) -> 'b

val iter2_exn : 'a t -> 'b t -> f:('a -> 'b -> unit) -> unit

List.iter2_exn f [a1; ...; an] [b1; ...; bn] calls in turn f a1 b1; ...; f an bn. Raise Invalid_argument if the two lists have different lengths.

val rev_map2_exn : 'a t -> 'b t -> f:('a -> 'b -> 'c) -> 'c t

List.rev_map2_exn f l1 l2 gives the same result as List.rev (List.map2_exn f l1 l2), but is more efficient.

val fold2_exn : 'a t -> 'b t -> init:'c -> f:('c -> 'a -> 'b -> 'c) -> 'c

List.fold2_exn f a [b1; ...; bn] [c1; ...; cn] is f (... (f (f a b1 c1) b2 c2) ...) bn cn. Raise Invalid_argument if the two lists have different lengths.

val for_all2_exn : 'a t -> 'b t -> f:('a -> 'b -> bool) -> bool

Same as List.for_all, but for a two-argument predicate. Raise Invalid_argument if the two lists have different lengths.

val exists2_exn : 'a t -> 'b t -> f:('a -> 'b -> bool) -> bool

Same as List.exists, but for a two-argument predicate. Raise Invalid_argument if the end of one list is reached before the end of the other.

val filter : 'a t -> f:('a -> bool) -> 'a t

filter p l returns all the elements of the list l that satisfy the predicate p. The order of the elements in the input list is preserved.

val rev_filter : 'a t -> f:('a -> bool) -> 'a t

Like filter, but reverses the order of the input list

val filteri : 'a t -> f:(int -> 'a -> bool) -> 'a t

val partition_map : 'a t ->
       f:('a -> [ `Fst of 'b | `Snd of 'c ]) -> 'b t * 'c t

partition_map t ~f partitions t according to f.

val partition_tf : 'a t -> f:('a -> bool) -> 'a t * 'a t

partition_tf p l returns a pair of lists (l1, l2), where l1 is the list of all the elements of l that satisfy the predicate p, and l2 is the list of all the elements of l that do not satisfy p. The order of the elements in the input list is preserved. The "tf" suffix is mnemonic to remind readers at a call that the result is (trues, falses).

val split_n : 'a t -> int -> 'a t * 'a t

split_n n [e1; ...; em] is ([e1; ...; en], [en+1; ...; em]). If n > m, ([e1; ...; em], []) is returned. If n < 0, ([], [e1; ...; em]) is returned.

val sort : cmp:('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a t -> 'a t

Sort a list in increasing order according to a comparison function. The comparison function must return 0 if its arguments compare as equal, a positive integer if the first is greater, and a negative integer if the first is smaller (see Array.sort for a complete specification). For example, Pervasives.compare is a suitable comparison function.

The current implementation uses Merge Sort. It runs in constant heap space and logarithmic stack space.

Presently, the sort is stable, meaning that two equal elements in the input will be in the same order in the output.

val stable_sort : cmp:('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a t -> 'a t

Same as sort, but guaranteed to be stable

val merge : 'a t -> 'a t -> cmp:('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a t

Merge two lists: assuming that l1 and l2 are sorted according to the comparison function cmp, merge cmp l1 l2 will return a sorted list containting all the elements of l1 and l2. If several elements compare equal, the elements of l1 will be before the elements of l2.

val hd : 'a t -> 'a option

val tl : 'a t -> 'a t option

val hd_exn : 'a t -> 'a

Return the first element of the given list. Raise Failure "hd" if the list is empty.

val tl_exn : 'a t -> 'a t

Return the given list without its first element. Raise Failure "tl" if the list is empty.

val findi : 'a t -> f:(int -> 'a -> bool) -> (int * 'a) option

val find_exn : 'a t -> f:('a -> bool) -> 'a

find_exn t ~f returns the first element of t that satisfies f. It raises Not_found if there is no such element.

val concat_map : 'a t -> f:('a -> 'b t) -> 'b t

concat_map t ~f is concat (map t ~f), except that there is no guarantee about the order in which f is applied to the elements of t.

val rev_map_append : 'a t -> 'b t -> f:('a -> 'b) -> 'b t

rev_map_append ~f l1 l2 reverses l1 mapping f over each element, and appends the result to the front of l2.

val fold_right : 'a t -> f:('a -> 'b -> 'b) -> init:'b -> 'b

List.fold_right f [a1; ...; an] b is f a1 (f a2 (... (f an b) ...)).

val zip : 'a t -> 'b t -> ('a * 'b) t option

Transform a pair of lists into an (optional) list of pairs: zip [a1; ...; an] [b1; ...; bn] is [(a1,b1); ...; (an,bn)]. Returns None if the two lists have different lengths.

val zip_exn : 'a t -> 'b t -> ('a * 'b) t

val mapi : 'a t -> f:(int -> 'a -> 'b) -> 'b t

val group : 'a t -> break:('a -> 'a -> bool) -> 'a t t

group l ~break returns a list of lists (i.e., groups) whose concatenation is equal to the original list. Each group is broken where break returns true on a pair of successive elements.

Example

group ~break:(<>) 'M';'i';'s';'s';'i';'s';'s';'i';'p';'p';'i' ->

['M'];['i'];['s';'s'];['i'];['s';'s'];['i'];['p';'p'];['i']

val groupi : 'a t ->
       break:(int -> 'a -> 'a -> bool) -> 'a t t

This is just like group, except that you get the index in the original list of the current element along with the two elements.

Example, group the chars of Mississippi into triples

groupi ~break:(fun i _ _ -> i mod 3 = 0) 'M';'i';'s';'s';'i';'s';'s';'i';'p';'p';'i' ->

['M'; 'i'; 's']; ['s'; 'i'; 's']; ['s'; 'i'; 'p']; ['p'; 'i']

val contains_dup : ?compare:('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a t -> bool

contains_dup True if there are any two elements in the list which are the same.

val find_a_dup : ?compare:('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a t -> 'a option

find_a_dup returns a duplicate from the list (no guarantees about which duplicate you get), or None if there are no dups.

exception Duplicate_found of (unit -> Sexplib.Sexp.t) * string

val exn_if_dup : ?compare:('a -> 'a -> int) ->
       ?context:string -> 'a t -> to_sexp:('a -> Sexplib.Sexp.t) -> unit

exn_if_dup ?compare ?context t ~to_sexp will run find_a_dup on t, and raise Duplicate_found if a duplicate is found. The context is the second argument of the exception

count f l is the number of elements in l that satisfy the predicate f.

val range : ?stride:int ->

range ?stride ?start ?stop start_i stop_i is the list of integers from start_i to stop_i, stepping by stride. If stride < 0 then we need start_i > stop_i for the result to be nonempty (or start_i = stop_i in the case where both bounds are inclusive).

val init : int -> f:(int -> 'a) -> 'a t

init f n is [(f 0); (f 1); ...; (f (n-1))]. It is an error if n < 0.
