Description

A module wrapping `Prelude`/`Data.List` functions that can throw exceptions, such as `head` and `!!`. Each unsafe function has up to four variants, e.g. with `tail`:

- ``tail` :: [a] -> [a]`, raises an error on `tail []`.
- ``tailMay` :: [a] -> Maybe [a]`, turns errors into `Nothing`.
- ``tailDef` :: [a] -> [a] -> [a]`, takes a default to return on errors.
- ``tailNote` :: `Partial` => String -> [a] -> [a]`, takes an extra argument which supplements the error message.
- ``tailSafe` :: [a] -> [a]`, returns some sensible default if possible, `[]` in the case of `tail`.

All functions marked with the ``Partial`` constraint are not total, and will produce stack traces on error, on GHC versions which support them (see GHC.Stack).

This module also introduces some new functions, documented at the top of the module.

# New functions

abort :: Partial => String -> a Source #

Synonym for `error`. Used for instances where the program has decided to exit because of invalid user input, or the user pressed quit etc. This function allows `error` to be reserved for programmer errors.

at :: Partial => [a] -> Int -> a Source #

Synonym for `!!`, but includes more information in the error message.

lookupJust :: (Eq a, Partial) => a -> [(a, b)] -> b Source #

    lookupJust key = fromJust . lookup key

findJust :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> a Source #

    findJust op = fromJust . find op

elemIndexJust :: (Partial, Eq a) => a -> [a] -> Int Source #

    elemIndexJust op = fromJust . elemIndex op

findIndexJust :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> Int Source #

    findIndexJust op = fromJust . findIndex op
