:: Maybe Int -> Int -> Int

Flipped version of fromMaybe, useful for chaining.

An infix form of fromMaybe with arguments flipped.

Similar to fromMaybe but with flipped arguments.

>>> readMaybe "True" ?: False
True

>>> readMaybe "Tru" ?: False
False

A fliped version of fromMaybe.

O(1) Indexing.

O(1) Unsafe indexing without bounds checking.

O(1) Indexing

O(1) Unsafe indexing without bounds checking

Optional more efficient implementation of indexing. Shouldn't be used directly, use ! instead.

Retrieve vector's element at index. Generic implementation is O(n) but more efficient one is used when possible.

Infix version of unsafeIndex.

Text size enlarged by (optional) i steps.

Text size reduced by (optional) i steps.

The fromMaybe function takes a default value and a Maybe value. If the Maybe is Nothing, it returns the default value; otherwise, it returns the value contained in the Maybe.

Examples

Basic usage:

>>> fromMaybe "" (Just "Hello, World!")
"Hello, World!"

>>> fromMaybe "" Nothing
""

Read an integer from a string using readMaybe. If we fail to parse an integer, we want to return 0 by default:

>>> import GHC.Internal.Text.Read ( readMaybe )

>>> fromMaybe 0 (readMaybe "5")
5

>>> fromMaybe 0 (readMaybe "")
0

An alternative name for fromMaybe, to fit the naming scheme of this package. Generally using fromMaybe directly would be considered better style.

Given a default value and a Maybe, yield the default value if the Maybe argument is Nothing and extract the value out of the Just otherwise.

The fromMaybe function takes a default value and a Maybe value. If the Maybe is Nothing, it returns the default value; otherwise, it returns the value contained in the Maybe.

Examples

Basic usage:

>>> fromMaybe "" (Just "Hello, World!")
"Hello, World!"

>>> fromMaybe "" Nothing
""

Read an integer from a string using readMaybe. If we fail to parse an integer, we want to return 0 by default:

>>> import Text.Read ( readMaybe )

>>> fromMaybe 0 (readMaybe "5")
5

>>> fromMaybe 0 (readMaybe "")
0

The fromMaybe function takes a default value and and Maybe value. If the Maybe is Nothing, it returns the default values; otherwise, it returns the value contained in the Maybe.

Examples

Basic usage:

>>> fromMaybe "" (Just "Hello, World!")
"Hello, World!"

>>> fromMaybe "" Nothing
""

Read an integer from a string using readMaybe. If we fail to parse an integer, we want to return 0 by default:

0

The fromMaybe function takes a default value and and Maybe value. If the Maybe is Nothing, it returns the default values; otherwise, it returns the value contained in the Maybe.

Examples

Basic usage:

Read an integer from a string using readMaybe. If we fail to parse an integer, we want to return 0 by default:

>>> import Text.Read ( readMaybe )

>>> fromMaybe 0 (readMaybe "5")
5

>>> fromMaybe 0 (readMaybe "")
0

Left bracket of the conditional choice operator. This is equivalent to fromMaybe
