Expand description

Value that either holds a single A or B, or both.

Variants

Both(A, B)

Both values are present.

Left(A)

Implementations

If Left, or Both, return true. Otherwise, return false.

If Right, or Both, return true, otherwise, return false.

If Left, return true. Otherwise, return false. Exclusive version of has_left.

If Right, return true. Otherwise, return false. Exclusive version of has_right.

If Both, return true. Otherwise, return false.

If Left, or Both, return Some with the left value. Otherwise, return None.

If Right, or Both, return Some with the right value. Otherwise, return None.

If Left, return Some with the left value. If Right or Both, return None.

Examples
// On the `Left` variant.
let x: EitherOrBoth<_, ()> = Left("bonjour");
assert_eq!(x.just_left(), Some("bonjour"));

// On the `Right` variant.
let x: EitherOrBoth<(), _> = Right("hola");
assert_eq!(x.just_left(), None);

// On the `Both` variant.
let x = Both("bonjour", "hola");
assert_eq!(x.just_left(), None);

If Right, return Some with the right value. If Left or Both, return None.

Examples
// On the `Left` variant.
let x: EitherOrBoth<_, ()> = Left("auf wiedersehen");
assert_eq!(x.just_left(), Some("auf wiedersehen"));

// On the `Right` variant.
let x: EitherOrBoth<(), _> = Right("adios");
assert_eq!(x.just_left(), None);

// On the `Both` variant.
let x = Both("auf wiedersehen", "adios");
assert_eq!(x.just_left(), None);

If Both, return Some containing the left and right values. Otherwise, return None.

If Left or Both, return the left value. Otherwise, convert the right value and return it.

If Right or Both, return the right value. Otherwise, convert the left value and return it.

Converts from &EitherOrBoth<A, B> to EitherOrBoth<&A, &B>.

Converts from &mut EitherOrBoth<A, B> to EitherOrBoth<&mut A, &mut B>.

Converts from &EitherOrBoth<A, B> to EitherOrBoth<&_, &_> using the Deref trait.

Converts from &mut EitherOrBoth<A, B> to EitherOrBoth<&mut _, &mut _> using the DerefMut trait.

Convert EitherOrBoth<A, B> to EitherOrBoth<B, A>.

Apply the function f on the value a in Left(a) or Both(a, b) variants. If it is present rewrapping the result in self’s original variant.

Apply the function f on the value b in Right(b) or Both(a, b) variants. If it is present rewrapping the result in self’s original variant.

Apply the functions f and g on the value a and b respectively; found in Left(a), Right(b), or Both(a, b) variants. The Result is rewrapped self’s original variant.

Apply the function f on the value a in Left(a) or Both(a, _) variants if it is present.

Apply the function f on the value b in Right(b) or Both(_, b) variants if it is present.

Returns a tuple consisting of the l and r in Both(l, r), if present. Otherwise, returns the wrapped value for the present element, and the supplied value for the other. The first (l) argument is used for a missing Left value. The second (r) argument is used for a missing Right value.

Arguments passed to or are eagerly evaluated; if you are passing the result of a function call, it is recommended to use or_else, which is lazily evaluated.

Examples
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Both("tree", 1).or("stone", 5), ("tree", 1));
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Left("tree").or("stone", 5), ("tree", 5));
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Right(1).or("stone", 5), ("stone", 1));

Returns a tuple consisting of the l and r in Both(l, r), if present. Otherwise, returns the wrapped value for the present element, and the default for the other.

Returns a tuple consisting of the l and r in Both(l, r), if present. Otherwise, returns the wrapped value for the present element, and computes the missing value with the supplied closure. The first argument (l) is used for a missing Left value. The second argument (r) is used for a missing Right value.

Examples
let k = 10;
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Both("tree", 1).or_else(|| "stone", || 2 * k), ("tree", 1));
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Left("tree").or_else(|| "stone", || 2 * k), ("tree", 20));
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Right(1).or_else(|| "stone", || 2 * k), ("stone", 1));

Returns a mutable reference to the left value. If the left value is not present, it is replaced with val.

Returns a mutable reference to the right value. If the right value is not present, it is replaced with val.

If the left value is not present, replace it the value computed by the closure f. Returns a mutable reference to the now-present left value.

If the right value is not present, replace it the value computed by the closure f. Returns a mutable reference to the now-present right value.

Sets the left value of this instance, and returns a mutable reference to it. Does not affect the right value.

Examples

// Overwriting a pre-existing value.
let mut either: EitherOrBoth<_, ()> = Left(0_u32);
assert_eq!(*either.insert_left(69), 69);

// Inserting a second value.
let mut either = Right("no");
assert_eq!(*either.insert_left("yes"), "yes");
assert_eq!(either, Both("yes", "no"));

Sets the right value of this instance, and returns a mutable reference to it. Does not affect the left value.

Examples
// Overwriting a pre-existing value.
let mut either: EitherOrBoth<_, ()> = Left(0_u32);
assert_eq!(*either.insert_left(69), 69);

// Inserting a second value.
let mut either = Left("what's");
assert_eq!(*either.insert_right(9 + 10), 21 - 2);
assert_eq!(either, Both("what's", 9+10));

Set self to Both(..), containing the specified left and right values, and returns a mutable reference to those values.

Return either value of left, right, or apply a function f to both values if both are present. The input function has to return the same type as both Right and Left carry.

Examples
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Both(3, 7).reduce(u32::max), 7);
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Left(3).reduce(u32::max), 3);
assert_eq!(EitherOrBoth::Right(7).reduce(u32::max), 7);
