A collection of various methods for splitting lists into parts, akin to
|
|
the "split" function found in several mainstream languages. Here is its
|
|
tale:
|
|
|
|
Once upon a time the standard Data.List module held no function for
|
|
splitting a list into parts according to a delimiter. Many a brave
|
|
lambda-knight strove to add such a function, but their striving was in
|
|
vain, for Lo, the Supreme Council fell to bickering amongst themselves
|
|
what was to be the essential nature of the One True Function which could
|
|
cleave a list in twain (or thrain, or any required number of parts).
|
|
|
|
And thus came to pass the split package, comprising divers functions for
|
|
splitting a list asunder, each according to its nature. And the Supreme
|
|
Council had no longer any grounds for argument, for the favored method
|
|
of each was contained therein.
|
|
|
|
Combinator library and utility functions for splitting lists.
