exceptional: Essentially the Maybe type with error messages.
This is a very simple type:
data Exceptional x = Failure String | Success x
It's much like Maybe
, except instead of Nothing
, we have Failure
String
.
A comparison could also be made to Either String
. I made this library
because I was dissatisfied with the Monad
instance for Either
. In this
type, fail = Failure
. It's rather simple.
