pub enum Either<L, R> {
    Left(L),
    Right(R),
}
Expand description

The enum Either with variants Left and Right is a general purpose sum type with two cases.

The Either type is symmetric and treats its variants the same way, without preference. (For representing success or error, use the regular Result enum instead.)

Variants

Left(L)

A value of type L.

Right(R)

A value of type R.

Implementations

Return true if the value is the Left variant.

use either::*;

let values = [Left(1), Right("the right value")];
assert_eq!(values[0].is_left(), true);
assert_eq!(values[1].is_left(), false);

Return true if the value is the Right variant.

use either::*;

let values = [Left(1), Right("the right value")];
assert_eq!(values[0].is_right(), false);
assert_eq!(values[1].is_right(), true);

Convert the left side of Either<L, R> to an Option<L>.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, ()> = Left("some value");
assert_eq!(left.left(),  Some("some value"));

let right: Either<(), _> = Right(321);
assert_eq!(right.left(), None);

Convert the right side of Either<L, R> to an Option<R>.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, ()> = Left("some value");
assert_eq!(left.right(),  None);

let right: Either<(), _> = Right(321);
assert_eq!(right.right(), Some(321));

Convert &Either<L, R> to Either<&L, &R>.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, ()> = Left("some value");
assert_eq!(left.as_ref(), Left(&"some value"));

let right: Either<(), _> = Right("some value");
assert_eq!(right.as_ref(), Right(&"some value"));

Convert &mut Either<L, R> to Either<&mut L, &mut R>.

use either::*;

fn mutate_left(value: &mut Either<u32, u32>) {
    if let Some(l) = value.as_mut().left() {
        *l = 999;
    }
}

let mut left = Left(123);
let mut right = Right(123);
mutate_left(&mut left);
mutate_left(&mut right);
assert_eq!(left, Left(999));
assert_eq!(right, Right(123));

Convert Pin<&Either<L, R>> to Either<Pin<&L>, Pin<&R>>, pinned projections of the inner variants.

Convert Pin<&mut Either<L, R>> to Either<Pin<&mut L>, Pin<&mut R>>, pinned projections of the inner variants.

Convert Either<L, R> to Either<R, L>.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, ()> = Left(123);
assert_eq!(left.flip(), Right(123));

let right: Either<(), _> = Right("some value");
assert_eq!(right.flip(), Left("some value"));

Apply the function f on the value in the Left variant if it is present rewrapping the result in Left.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, u32> = Left(123);
assert_eq!(left.map_left(|x| x * 2), Left(246));

let right: Either<u32, _> = Right(123);
assert_eq!(right.map_left(|x| x * 2), Right(123));

Apply the function f on the value in the Right variant if it is present rewrapping the result in Right.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, u32> = Left(123);
assert_eq!(left.map_right(|x| x * 2), Left(123));

let right: Either<u32, _> = Right(123);
assert_eq!(right.map_right(|x| x * 2), Right(246));

Apply the functions f and g to the Left and Right variants respectively. This is equivalent to bimap in functional programming.

use either::*;

let f = |s: String| s.len();
let g = |u: u8| u.to_string();

let left: Either<String, u8> = Left("loopy".into());
assert_eq!(left.map_either(f, g), Left(5));

let right: Either<String, u8> = Right(42);
assert_eq!(right.map_either(f, g), Right("42".into()));

Similar to map_either, with an added context ctx accessible to both functions.

use either::*;

let mut sum = 0;

// Both closures want to update the same value, so pass it as context.
let mut f = |sum: &mut usize, s: String| { *sum += s.len(); s.to_uppercase() };
let mut g = |sum: &mut usize, u: usize| { *sum += u; u.to_string() };

let left: Either<String, usize> = Left("loopy".into());
assert_eq!(left.map_either_with(&mut sum, &mut f, &mut g), Left("LOOPY".into()));

let right: Either<String, usize> = Right(42);
assert_eq!(right.map_either_with(&mut sum, &mut f, &mut g), Right("42".into()));

assert_eq!(sum, 47);

Apply one of two functions depending on contents, unifying their result. If the value is Left(L) then the first function f is applied; if it is Right(R) then the second function g is applied.

use either::*;

fn square(n: u32) -> i32 { (n * n) as i32 }
fn negate(n: i32) -> i32 { -n }

let left: Either<u32, i32> = Left(4);
assert_eq!(left.either(square, negate), 16);

let right: Either<u32, i32> = Right(-4);
assert_eq!(right.either(square, negate), 4);

Like either, but provide some context to whichever of the functions ends up being called.

// In this example, the context is a mutable reference
use either::*;

let mut result = Vec::new();

let values = vec![Left(2), Right(2.7)];

for value in values {
    value.either_with(&mut result,
                      |ctx, integer| ctx.push(integer),
                      |ctx, real| ctx.push(f64::round(real) as i32));
}

assert_eq!(result, vec![2, 3]);

Apply the function f on the value in the Left variant if it is present.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, u32> = Left(123);
assert_eq!(left.left_and_then::<_,()>(|x| Right(x * 2)), Right(246));

let right: Either<u32, _> = Right(123);
assert_eq!(right.left_and_then(|x| Right::<(), _>(x * 2)), Right(123));

Apply the function f on the value in the Right variant if it is present.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, u32> = Left(123);
assert_eq!(left.right_and_then(|x| Right(x * 2)), Left(123));

let right: Either<u32, _> = Right(123);
assert_eq!(right.right_and_then(|x| Right(x * 2)), Right(246));

Convert the inner value to an iterator.

This requires the Left and Right iterators to have the same item type. See factor_into_iter to iterate different types.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, Vec<u32>> = Left(vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
let mut right: Either<Vec<u32>, _> = Right(vec![]);
right.extend(left.into_iter());
assert_eq!(right, Right(vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5]));

Borrow the inner value as an iterator.

This requires the Left and Right iterators to have the same item type. See factor_iter to iterate different types.

use either::*;

let left: Either<_, &[u32]> = Left(vec![2, 3]);
let mut right: Either<Vec<u32>, _> = Right(&[4, 5][..]);
let mut all = vec![1];
all.extend(left.iter());
all.extend(right.iter());
assert_eq!(all, vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);

for l in left.iter_mut() {
    *l *= *l
}
assert_eq!(left, Left(vec![4, 9]));

let mut inner = [4, 5];
let mut right: Either<Vec<u32>, _> = Right(&mut inner[..]);
for r in right.iter_mut() {
    *r *= *r
}
assert_eq!(inner, [16, 25]);

let right: Either<&[&str], _> = Right(vec![0, 1]);

right.factor_iter_mut().for_each(|x| if let Right(r) = x { *r = -*r; });
assert_eq!(right, Right(vec![0, -1, -2]));

Reduces the items in the iterator into one item using op. The argument identity should be a closure that can produce “identity” value which may be inserted into the sequence as needed to create opportunities for parallel execution. So, for example, if you are doing a summation, then identity() ought to produce something that represents the zero for your type (but consider just calling sum() in that case). Read more
Reduces the items in the iterator into one item using op. If the iterator is empty, None is returned; otherwise, Some is returned. Read more
Parallel fold is similar to sequential fold except that the sequence of items may be subdivided before it is folded. Consider a list of numbers like 22 3 77 89 46. If you used sequential fold to add them (fold(0, |a,b| a+b), you would wind up first adding 0 + 22, then 22 + 3, then 25 + 77, and so forth. The parallel fold works similarly except that it first breaks up your list into sublists, and hence instead of yielding up a single sum at the end, it yields up multiple sums. The number of results is nondeterministic, as is the point where the breaks occur. Read more
