:: [a] -> Int -> Maybe a -package:safe -package:rio

List index (subscript) operator, starting from 0. Returns Nothing if the index is out of bounds This is the total variant of the partial !! operator. WARNING: This function takes linear time in the index.

Examples

>>> ['a', 'b', 'c'] !? 0
Just 'a'

>>> ['a', 'b', 'c'] !? 2
Just 'c'

>>> ['a', 'b', 'c'] !? 3
Nothing

>>> ['a', 'b', 'c'] !? (-1)
Nothing

This is the total variant of the partial !! operator. WARNING: This function takes linear time in the index.

Safer version of !!, returns a Maybe. Get element from list using index value starting from `0`.

>>> [] !!? 0
Nothing

>>> ["a", "b", "c"] !!? 3
Nothing

>>> [1, 2, 3] !!? (-1)
Nothing

>>> ["a", "b", "c"] !!? 2
Just "c"

Lookup function (safe). O(min n index).

Safe version of (!!).

A (!!) that fails using mzero

!!? with its arguments flipped. Get element from list using index value starting from `0`.

>>> maybeAt 0 []
Nothing

>>> maybeAt 3 ["a", "b", "c"]
Nothing

>>> maybeAt (-1) [1, 2, 3]
Nothing

>>> maybeAt 2 ["a", "b", "c"]
Just "c"

Deprecated: Use XMonad.Prelude.(!?) instead.
