Compare the lengths of two lists. compare_lengths l1 l2
is equivalent to compare (length l1) (length l2)
, except that the computation stops after itering on the shortest list.
Compare the length of a list to an integer. compare_length_with l n
is equivalent to compare (length l) n
, except that the computation stops after at most n
iterations on the list.
Return the first element of the given list. Raise Failure "hd"
if the list is empty.
Return the given list without its first element. Raise Failure "tl"
if the list is empty.
Return the n
-th element of the given list. The first element (head of the list) is at position 0. Raise Failure "nth"
if the list is too short. Raise Invalid_argument "List.nth"
if n
is negative.
Return the n
-th element of the given list. The first element (head of the list) is at position 0. Return None
if the list is too short. Raise Invalid_argument "List.nth"
if n
is negative.
List.init len f
is [f 0; f 1; ...; f (len-1)]
, evaluated left to right.
Concatenate two lists. Same as the infix operator @
. Not tail-recursive (length of the first argument).
List.rev_append l1 l2
reverses l1
and concatenates it to l2
. This is equivalent to List.rev
l1 @ l2
, but rev_append
is tail-recursive and more efficient.
Concatenate a list of lists. The elements of the argument are all concatenated together (in the same order) to give the result. Not tail-recursive (length of the argument + length of the longest sub-list).
List.iter f [a1; ...; an]
applies function f
in turn to a1; ...; an
. It is equivalent to begin f a1; f a2; ...; f an; () end
.
Same as List.iter
, but the function is applied to the index of the element as first argument (counting from 0), and the element itself as second argument.
List.map f [a1; ...; an]
applies function f
to a1, ..., an
, and builds the list [f a1; ...; f an]
with the results returned by f
. Not tail-recursive.
Same as List.map
, but the function is applied to the index of the element as first argument (counting from 0), and the element itself as second argument. Not tail-recursive.
filter_map f l
applies f
to every element of l
, filters out the None
elements and returns the list of the arguments of the Some
elements.
List.concat_map f l
gives the same result as List.concat
(
List.map
f l)
. Tail-recursive.
List.fold_left f a [b1; ...; bn]
is f (... (f (f a b1) b2) ...) bn
.
List.fold_right f [a1; ...; an] b
is f a1 (f a2 (... (f an b) ...))
. Not tail-recursive.
List.iter2 f [a1; ...; an] [b1; ...; bn]
calls in turn f a1 b1; ...; f an bn
. Raise Invalid_argument
if the two lists are determined to have different lengths.
List.map2 f [a1; ...; an] [b1; ...; bn]
is [f a1 b1; ...; f an bn]
. Raise Invalid_argument
if the two lists are determined to have different lengths. Not tail-recursive.
List.fold_left2 f a [b1; ...; bn] [c1; ...; cn]
is f (... (f (f a b1 c1) b2 c2) ...) bn cn
. Raise Invalid_argument
if the two lists are determined to have different lengths.
List.fold_right2 f [a1; ...; an] [b1; ...; bn] c
is f a1 b1 (f a2 b2 (... (f an bn c) ...))
. Raise Invalid_argument
if the two lists are determined to have different lengths. Not tail-recursive.
for_all p [a1; ...; an]
checks if all elements of the list satisfy the predicate p
. That is, it returns (p a1) && (p a2) && ... && (p an)
.
exists p [a1; ...; an]
checks if at least one element of the list satisfies the predicate p
. That is, it returns (p a1) || (p a2) || ... || (p an)
.
Same as List.for_all
, but for a two-argument predicate. Raise Invalid_argument
if the two lists are determined to have different lengths.
Same as List.exists
, but for a two-argument predicate. Raise Invalid_argument
if the two lists are determined to have different lengths.
Same as List.mem
, but uses physical equality instead of structural equality to compare list elements.
find p l
returns the first element of the list l
that satisfies the predicate p
. Raise Not_found
if there is no value that satisfies p
in the list l
.
find_opt p l
returns the first element of the list l
that satisfies the predicate p
, or None
if there is no value that satisfies p
in the list l
.
find_map f l
applies f
to the elements of l
in order, and returns the first result of the form Some v
, or None
if none exist.
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.
find_all
is another name for List.filter
.
partition 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.
assoc a l
returns the value associated with key a
in the list of pairs l
. That is, assoc a [ ...; (a,b); ...] = b
if (a,b)
is the leftmost binding of a
in list l
. Raise Not_found
if there is no value associated with a
in the list l
.
assoc_opt a l
returns the value associated with key a
in the list of pairs l
. That is, assoc_opt a [ ...; (a,b); ...] = b
if (a,b)
is the leftmost binding of a
in list l
. Returns None
if there is no value associated with a
in the list l
.
Same as List.assoc
, but uses physical equality instead of structural equality to compare keys.
Same as List.assoc_opt
, but uses physical equality instead of structural equality to compare keys.
Same as List.assoc
, but simply return true if a binding exists, and false if no bindings exist for the given key.
Same as List.mem_assoc
, but uses physical equality instead of structural equality to compare keys.
remove_assoc a l
returns the list of pairs l
without the first pair with key a
, if any. Not tail-recursive.
Same as List.remove_assoc
, but uses physical equality instead of structural equality to compare keys. Not tail-recursive.
Transform a list of pairs into a pair of lists: split [(a1,b1); ...; (an,bn)]
is ([a1; ...; an], [b1; ...; bn])
. Not tail-recursive.
Transform a pair of lists into a list of pairs: combine [a1; ...; an] [b1; ...; bn]
is [(a1,b1); ...; (an,bn)]
. Raise Invalid_argument
if the two lists have different lengths. Not tail-recursive.
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, Stdlib.compare
is a suitable comparison function. The resulting list is sorted in increasing order. List.sort
is guaranteed to run in constant heap space (in addition to the size of the result list) and logarithmic stack space.
The current implementation uses Merge Sort. It runs in constant heap space and logarithmic stack space.
Same as List.sort
, but the sorting algorithm is guaranteed to be stable (i.e. elements that compare equal are kept in their original order) .
The current implementation uses Merge Sort. It runs in constant heap space and logarithmic stack space.
Same as List.sort
or List.stable_sort
, whichever is faster on typical input.
Same as List.sort
, but also remove duplicates.
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 containing all the elements of l1
and l2
. If several elements compare equal, the elements of l1
will be before the elements of l2
. Not tail-recursive (sum of the lengths of the arguments).
val to_seq : 'a list -> 'a Seq.t
Iterate on the list
val of_seq : 'a Seq.t -> 'a list
Create a list from the iterator
