An alias for the type of lists.

val length : 'a list -> int

Return the length (number of elements) of the given list.

val compare_lengths : 'a list -> 'b list -> int

Compare the lengths of two lists. compare_lengths l1 l2 is equivalent to compare (length l1) (length l2), except that the computation stops after reaching the end of the shortest list.

  • since 4.05
val compare_length_with : 'a list -> int -> int

Compare the length of a list to an integer. compare_length_with l len is equivalent to compare (length l) len, except that the computation stops after at most len iterations on the list.

  • since 4.05
val cons : 'a -> 'a list -> 'a list

cons x xs is x :: xs

  • since 4.03 (4.05 in ListLabels)
val hd : 'a list -> 'a

Return the first element of the given list.

  • raises Failure

    if the list is empty.

val tl : 'a list -> 'a list

Return the given list without its first element.

  • raises Failure

    if the list is empty.

val nth : 'a list -> int -> 'a

Return the n-th element of the given list. The first element (head of the list) is at position 0.

  • raises Failure

    if the list is too short.

val nth_opt : 'a list -> int -> 'a option

  • since 4.05
val rev : 'a list -> 'a list

rev_map f l gives the same result as rev (map f l), but is more efficient.

val filter_map : ('a -> 'b option) -> 'a list -> 'b list

filter_map f l applies f to every element of l, filters out the None elements and returns the list of the arguments of the Some elements.

List scanning

val for_all : ('a -> bool) -> 'a list -> bool

for_all f [a1; ...; an] checks if all elements of the list satisfy the predicate f. That is, it returns (f a1) && (f a2) && ... && (f an) for a non-empty list and true if the list is empty.

val exists : ('a -> bool) -> 'a list -> bool

  • raises Not_found

    if there is no value that satisfies f in the list l.

val find_index : ('a -> bool) -> 'a list -> int option

find_index f xs returns Some i, where i is the index of the first element of the list xs that satisfies f x, if there is such an element.

It returns None if there is no such element.

  • since 5.1
val find_mapi : (int -> 'a -> 'b option) -> 'a list -> 'b option

Same as find_map, but the predicate is applied to the index of the element as first argument (counting from 0), and the element itself as second argument.

  • since 5.1
val find_all : ('a -> bool) -> 'a list -> 'a list

find_all is another name for filter.

val partition : ('a -> bool) -> 'a list -> 'a list * 'a list

partition f l returns a pair of lists (l1, l2), where l1 is the list of all the elements of l that satisfy the predicate f, and l2 is the list of all the elements of l that do not satisfy f. The order of the elements in the input list is preserved.

val partition_map : ('a -> ('b, 'c) Either.t) -> 'a list -> 'b list * 'c list

partition_map f l returns a pair of lists (l1, l2) such that, for each element x of the input list l:

  • if f x is Left y1, then y1 is in l1, and
  • if f x is Right y2, then y2 is in l2.

The output elements are included in l1 and l2 in the same relative order as the corresponding input elements in l.

In particular, partition_map (fun x -> if f x then Left x else Right x) l is equivalent to partition f l.

  • since 4.12

Association lists

Lists of pairs

Sorting

val sort : ('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a list -> 'a list

Sort a list in increasing order according to a comparison function. The comparison function must return 0 if its arguments compare as equal, a positive integer if the first is greater, and a negative integer if the first is smaller (see Array.sort for a complete specification). For example, Stdlib.compare is a suitable comparison function. The resulting list is sorted in increasing order. sort is guaranteed to run in constant heap space (in addition to the size of the result list) and logarithmic stack space.

The current implementation uses Merge Sort. It runs in constant heap space and logarithmic stack space.

val stable_sort : ('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a list -> 'a list

Same as sort, but the sorting algorithm is guaranteed to be stable (i.e. elements that compare equal are kept in their original order).

The current implementation uses Merge Sort. It runs in constant heap space and logarithmic stack space.

val fast_sort : ('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a list -> 'a list

Same as sort or stable_sort, whichever is faster on typical input.

val sort_uniq : ('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a list -> 'a list

Same as sort, but also remove duplicates.

  • since 4.02 (4.03 in ListLabels)
val merge : ('a -> 'a -> int) -> 'a list -> 'a list -> 'a list

Merge two lists: Assuming that l1 and l2 are sorted according to the comparison function cmp, merge cmp l1 l2 will return a sorted list containing all the elements of l1 and l2. If several elements compare equal, the elements of l1 will be before the elements of l2. Not tail-recursive (sum of the lengths of the arguments).

val combinations : 'a list list -> 'a list list

combinations l returns the list of n_1 * ... * n_p tuples [a11;...;ap1];...;[a1n_1;...;apn_pd] whenever l is a list [a11;..;a1n_1];...;[ap1;apn_p]; otherwise said, it is cartesians (::) [] l

val cartesians_filter : ('a -> 'b -> 'b option) -> 'b -> 'a list list -> 'b list

Like cartesians op init l but keep only the tuples for which op returns Some _ on all the elements of the tuple.

module Smart : sig ... end

When returning a list of same type as the input, maximally shares the suffix of the output which is physically equal to the corresponding suffix of the input

module type MonoS = sig ... end
