Description
The Bool type and related functions.
Booleans
Operations
Case analysis for the Bool type. evaluates to bool x y px
when p is False, and evaluates to y when p is True.
This is equivalent to if p then y else x; that is, one can
think of it as an if-then-else construct with its arguments
reordered.
Examples
Basic usage:
>>>bool "foo" "bar" True"bar">>>bool "foo" "bar" False"foo"
Confirm that and bool x y pif p then y else x are
equivalent:
>>>let p = True; x = "bar"; y = "foo">>>bool x y p == if p then y else xTrue>>>let p = False>>>bool x y p == if p then y else xTrue
