List
A replacement for Stdlib.List
which:
- replaces the exception-raising functions by exception-safe variants,
- provides Lwt-, result- and Lwt-result-aware traversors.
List
is intended to shadow both Stdlib.List
and Lwt_list
.
Basics
Checkout Lwtreslib
for an introduction to the naming and semantic convention of Lwtreslib. In a nutshell:
- Stdlib functions that raise exceptions are replaced by safe variants (typically returning
option
). - The
_e
suffix is for result-aware traversors ("e" stands for "error"), _s
and _p
are for Lwt-aware, and _es
and _ep
are for Lwt-result-aware. _e
, _s
, and _es
traversors are fail-early: they stop traversal as soon as a failure (Error
or Fail
) occurs; _p
and _ep
traversors are best-effort: they only resolve once all of the intermediate promises have, even if a failure occurs.
Double-traversal and combine
Note that double-list traversors (iter2
, map2
, etc., and also combine
) take an additional when_different_lengths
parameter. This is to control the error that is returned when the two lists passed as arguments have different lengths.
This mechanism is a replacement for Stdlib.List.iter2
(etc.) raising Invalid_argument
.
Note that, as per the fail-early behaviour mentioned above, _e
, _s
, and _es
traversors will have already processed the common-prefix before the error is returned.
Because the best-effort behaviour of _p
and _ep
is unsatisfying for this failure case, double parallel traversors are omitted from this library. (Specifically, it is not obvious whether nor how the when_different_lengths
error should be composed with the other errors.)
To obtain a different behaviour for sequential traversors, or to process two lists in parallel, you can use combine
or any of the alternatives that handles the error differently: combine_drop
, combine_with_leftovers
. Finally, the rev_combine
is provided to allow to avoid multiple-reversing.
Special considerations
Because they traverse the list from right-to-left, the fold_right2
function and all its variants fail with when_different_lengths
before any of the processing starts. Whilst this is still within the fail-early behaviour, it may be surprising enough that it requires mentioning here.
Because they may return early, for_all2
and exists2
and all their variants may return Ok _
even though the arguments have different lengths.

Safe wrappers
This part of the module simply shadows some functions from Stdlib.List
with exceptionless variants. As per the design principles of Lwtreslib,
- functions which may fail with
Not_found
or otherwise from unavailability of data return an option
instead, - function which may fail with
Invalid_argument _
or otherwise from malformedness of input receive an additional parameter to return as an Error
instead, - functions which perform polymorphic comparison receive an additional parameter for monomorphic comparison instead.
val hd : 'a list -> 'a option
hd xs
is the head (first element) of the list or None
if the list is empty.
val tl : 'a list -> 'a list option
tl xs
is the tail of the list (the whole list except the first element) or None
if the list is empty.
val nth : 'a list -> int -> 'a option
nth xs n
is the n
th element of the list or None
if the list has fewer than n
elements.
For example, nth xs 0 = hd xs
and nth ['x'; 'y'] 1 = Some 'y'
.
val nth_opt : 'a list -> int -> 'a option
nth_opt
is an alias for nth
provided for compatibility with Stdlib.List
.
val last : 'a -> 'a list -> 'a
last x xs
is the last element of the list xs
or x
if xs
is empty.
The primary intended use for last
is after destructing a list: match l with | [] -> … | x :: xs -> last x xs
but it can also be used for a default value: last default_value_if_empty xs
.
val last_opt : 'a list -> 'a option
last_opt xs
is the last element of the list xs
or None
if the list xs
is empty.
val find : ('a -> bool) -> 'a list -> 'a option
find predicate xs
is the first element x
of the list xs
such that predicate x
is true
or None
if the list xs
has no such element.
val find_opt : ('a -> bool) -> 'a list -> 'a option
find_opt
is an alias for find
provided for compatibility with Stdlib.List
.
val find_map : ('a -> 'b option) -> 'a list -> 'b option
find_map f xs
applies f
to each of the elements of xs
until it returns Some _
at which point it is returned. If no such elements are found then it returns None
.
Note that it only applies f
to a prefix of xs
. It doesn't apply f
to the elements of xs
which are after the found element. Consequently, find_map f xs
has better performance and a different semantic than calling map
and find
separately.
val mem : equal:('a -> 'a -> bool) -> 'a -> 'a list -> bool
mem ~equal a l
is true
iff there is an element e
of l
such that equal a e
.
val assoc : equal:('a -> 'a -> bool) -> 'a -> ('a * 'b) list -> 'b option
assoc ~equal k kvs
is Some v
such that (k', v)
is the first pair in the list such that equal k' k
or None
if the list contains no such pair.
val assoc_opt : equal:('a -> 'a -> bool) -> 'a -> ('a * 'b) list -> 'b option
assoc_opt
is an alias for assoc
provided for compatibility with Stdlib.List
.
val assq : 'a -> ('a * 'b) list -> 'b option
assq k kvs
is the same as assoc ~equal:Stdlib.( == ) k kvs
: it uses the physical equality.
val assq_opt : 'a -> ('a * 'b) list -> 'b option
assq_opt
is an alias for assq
provided for compatibility with Stdlib.List
.
val mem_assoc : equal:('a -> 'a -> bool) -> 'a -> ('a * 'b) list -> bool
mem_assoc ~equal k l
is equivalent to Option.is_some @@ assoc ~equal k l
.
val mem_assq : 'a -> ('a * 'b) list -> bool
mem_assq k l
is mem_assoc ~equal:Stdlib.( == ) k l
.
val remove_assoc :
equal:('a -> 'a -> bool) ->
'a ->
('a * 'b) list ->
('a * 'b) list
remove_assoc ~equal k l
is l
without the first element (k', _)
such that equal k k'
.
val remove_assq : 'a -> ('a * 'b) list -> ('a * 'b) list
remove_assoq k l
is remove_assoc ~equal:Stdlib.( == ) k l
.
Initialisation
val init :
when_negative_length:'trace ->
int ->
(int -> 'a) ->
('a list, 'trace) Pervasives.result
init ~when_negative_length n f
is a list of n
elements f 0
, f 1
, etc.
If n
is negative, it is Error when_negative_length
instead.
Basic traversal
val length : 'a list -> int
length xs
is the number of elements in xs
.
length []
is 0
, length ['x']
is 1
, etc.
val rev : 'a list -> 'a list
rev xs
is a list with the elements appearing in the reverse order as in xs
.
rev ['x'; 'y']
is 'y'; 'x'
val concat : 'a list list -> 'a list
concat xs
is a list containing the elements of the elements of xs
.
concat [['x'; 'y']; ['a'; 'b']]
is ['x'; 'y'; 'a'; 'b']
val append : 'a list -> 'a list -> 'a list
append xs ys
is a list containing the elements of xs
and the elements of ys
, in this order.
concat ['x'; 'y'] ['a'; 'b']
is ['x'; 'y'; 'a'; 'b']
val rev_append : 'a list -> 'a list -> 'a list
rev_append xs ys
is append (rev xs) ys
but more efficient. In other words, rev_append xs ys
is a list containing the elements of xs in reverse order followed by the elements of ys
.
There are two main use-cases for rev_append
. First, you should use rev_append
when the order of elements is unimportant. In this case you simply replace append xs ys
with rev_append xs ys
.
Second, you can use rev_append
on an already reversed list. You may obtain an already reversed list from any of the other rev_*
functions of this module, or simply via your own traversal. In this case, you replace, say, append (map f xs) ys
with rev_append (rev_map f xs) ys
.
val flatten : 'a list list -> 'a list
flatten
is an alias for concat
.
Double-list traversals
These safe-wrappers take an explicit value to handle the case of lists of unequal length. This value is passed as a named parameter: when_different_lengths
.
Note that the traversal function passed as argument (if any) is applied to the common prefix of the two lists, even if they are of different lengths. E.g., in map2 f ['x', 'y'] ['a']
the call f 'x' 'a'
is made and all its side-effects are performed before the value Error when_different_lengths
is returned
val combine :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
'a list ->
'b list ->
(('a * 'b) list, 'trace) Pervasives.result
combine ~when_different_lengths l1 l2
is either
Error when_different_lengths
if List.length l1 <> List.length l2
- a list of pairs of elements from
l1
and l2
E.g., combine ~when_different_lengths [] []
is Ok []
E.g., combine ~when_different_lengths [1; 2] ['a'; 'b']
is Ok [(1,'a'); (2, 'b')]
E.g., combine ~when_different_lengths:"wrong" [1] []
is Error "wrong"
Note: combine ~when_different_lengths l1 l2
is equivalent to try Ok (Stdlib.List.combine l1 l2) with Invalid_argument _ -> when_different_lengths
The same equivalence almost holds for the other double traversors below. The notable difference is if the functions passed as argument to the traversors raise the Invalid_argument _
exception.
val rev_combine :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
'a list ->
'b list ->
(('a * 'b) list, 'trace) Pervasives.result
rev_combine ~when_different_lengths xs ys
is rev (combine ~when_different_lengths xs ys)
but more efficient.
val split : ('a * 'b) list -> 'a list * 'b list
split xs
is (List.map fst xs, List.map snd xs)
but more efficient.
val iter2 :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
('a -> 'b -> unit) ->
'a list ->
'b list ->
(unit, 'trace) Pervasives.result
iter2 ~when_different_lengths f xs ys
is f x0 y0; f x1 y1; …
.
Remember that, even if the lists are of different lengths, the function f
is applied to the common prefix of xs
and ys
. This is true for other traversals, but especially relevant to iter
which is commonly used for side-effects.
val map2 :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
('a -> 'b -> 'c) ->
'a list ->
'b list ->
('c list, 'trace) Pervasives.result
map2 ~when_different_lengths f xs ys
is a list with elements f x0 y0
, f x1 y1
, etc.
Remember that, even if the lists are of different lengths, the function f
is applied to the common prefix of xs
and ys
. Beware of side-effects and computational cost.
val rev_map2 :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
('a -> 'b -> 'c) ->
'a list ->
'b list ->
('c list, 'trace) Pervasives.result
rev_map2 ~when_different_lengths f xs ys
is Result.map rev @@ map2 ~when_different_lengths f xs ys
but more efficient.
Remember that, even if the lists are of different lengths, the function f
is applied to the common prefix of xs
and ys
. Beware of side-effects and computational cost.
val fold_left2 :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
('a -> 'b -> 'c -> 'a) ->
'a ->
'b list ->
'c list ->
('a, 'trace) Pervasives.result
fold_left2 ~when_different_lengths f init xs ys
is … (f (f init x0 y0) x1 y1)
.
Remember that, even if the lists are of different lengths, the function f
is applied to the common prefix of xs
and ys
. Beware of side-effects and computational cost.
val fold_right2 :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
('a -> 'b -> 'c -> 'c) ->
'a list ->
'b list ->
'c ->
('c, 'trace) Pervasives.result
fold_right2 ~when_different_lengths f xs ys init
is f x0 y0 (f x1 y1 (…))
.
This function is not tail-recursive.
Note that unlike the left-to-right double-list traversors, fold_right2
only calls f
if the lists are of the same length.
val for_all2 :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
('a -> 'b -> bool) ->
'a list ->
'b list ->
(bool, 'trace) Pervasives.result
for_all2 ~when_different_lengths f xs ys
is f x0 y0 && f x1 y1 && …
.
The function stops early if it encounters elements xn
, yn
such that f
xn yn
is false
. (This is consistent with the short-circuit, lazy evaluation strategy of &&
in the descritpion above.)
Also note that, if such an element is found in the common prefix of xs
and ys
, then the function returns Ok false
even if xs
and ys
are of different lengths.
Examples:
for_all2 ~when_different_lengths (=) [] []
is Ok true
for_all2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'] ['a']
is Ok false
for_all2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'; 'y'] ['a']
is Ok false
for_all2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'] ['x']
is Ok true
for_all2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'; 'y'] ['x']
is Error when_different_lengths
for_all2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'; 'y'] ['x'; 'b']
is Ok false
for_all2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'; 'y'] ['x'; 'y'; 'c']
is Error when_different_lengths
Remember that, when it returns Error when_different_lengths
, the function f
has already been applied to the common prefix of xs
and ys
. Beware of side-effects and computational cost.
val exists2 :
when_different_lengths:'trace ->
('a -> 'b -> bool) ->
'a list ->
'b list ->
(bool, 'trace) Pervasives.result
exists2 ~when_different_lengths f xs ys
is f x0 y0 || f x1 y1 || …
.
The function stops early if it encounters elements xn
, yn
such that f
xn yn
is true
. (This is consistent with the short-circuit, lazy evaluation strategy of ||
in the descritpion above.)
Also note that, if such an element is found in the common prefix of xs
and ys
, then the function returns Ok true
even if xs
and ys
are of different lengths.
Examples:
exists2 ~when_different_lengths (=) [] []
is Ok false
exists2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'] ['a']
is Ok false
exists2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'; 'y'] ['a']
is Error when_different_lengths
exists2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'] ['x']
is Ok true
exists2 ~when_different_lengths (=) ['x'; 'y'] ['x']
is Ok true
Remember that, when it returns Error when_different_lengths
, the function f
has already been applied to the common prefix of xs
and ys
. Beware of side-effects and computational cost.

Combine variants
These are primarily intended to be used for preprocessing before applying a traversor to the resulting list of pairs. They give alternatives to the when_different_lengths
mechanism of the immediate double-traversors above.
In case the semantic of, say, map2_es
was unsatisfying, one can use map_es
on a combine
-preprocessed pair of lists. The different variants of combine
give different approaches to different-length handling.
val combine_drop : 'a list -> 'b list -> ('a * 'b) list
combine_drop ll lr
is a list l
of pairs of elements taken from the common-length prefix of ll
and lr
. The suffix of whichever list is longer (if any) is dropped.
More formally nth l n
is:
None
if n >= min (length ll) (length lr)
Some (Option.get @@ nth ll n, Option.get @@ nth lr n)
otherwise
val combine_with_leftovers :
'a list ->
'b list ->
('a * 'b) list * ('a list, 'b list) Either.t option
combine_with_leftovers ll lr
is a tuple (combined, leftover)
where combined
is combine_drop ll lr
and leftover
is either Either.Left lsuffix
or Either.Right rsuffix
depending on which of ll
or lr
is longer. leftover
is None
if the two lists have the same length.
