You can think of 'select' as a selective -- function application: when given a value of type 'Left' @a@, you __must apply__ -- the given function, but when given a 'Right' @b@, you __may skip__ the -- function and associated effects, and simply return the @b@. -- -- Note that it is not a requirement for selective functors to skip unnecessary -- effects. It may be counterintuitive, but this makes them more useful. Why? -- Typically, when executing a selective computation, you would want to skip the -- effects (saving work); but on the other hand, if your goal is to statically -- analyse a given selective computation and extract the set of all possible -- effects (without actually executing them), then you do not want to skip any -- effects, because that defeats the purpose of static analysis. -- -- The type signature of 'select' is reminiscent of both '<*>' and '>>=', and -- indeed a selective functor is in some sense a composition of an applicative -- functor and the 'Either' monad. -- -- Laws: -- -- * Identity: -- -- @ -- x \<*? pure id = either id id \<$\> x -- @ -- -- * Distributivity; note that @y@ and @z@ have the same type @f (a -> b)@: -- -- @ -- pure x \<*?
