newtype CodePoint

CodePoint is an Int bounded between 0 and 0x10FFFF, corresponding to Unicode code points.

Instances

#uncons Source

uncons :: String -> Maybe { head :: CodePoint, tail :: String }

Returns a record with the first code point and the remaining code points of the string. Returns Nothing if the string is empty. Operates in constant space and time.

>>> uncons "๐€๐€ c ๐€"
Just { head: CodePoint 0x1D400, tail: "๐€ c ๐€" }
>>> uncons ""
Nothing

#toCodePointArray Source

toCodePointArray :: String -> Array CodePoint

Creates an array of code points from a string. Operates in space and time linear to the length of the string.

>>> codePointArray = toCodePointArray "b ๐€๐€"
>>> codePointArray
[CodePoint 0x62, CodePoint 0x20, CodePoint 0x1D400, CodePoint 0x1D400]
>>> map singleton codePointArray
["b", " ", "๐€", "๐€"]

#takeWhile Source

takeWhile :: (CodePoint -> Boolean) -> String -> String

Returns a string containing the leading sequence of code points which all match the given predicate from the string. Operates in constant space and in time linear to the length of the string.

>>> takeWhile (\c -> fromEnum c == 0x1D400) "๐€๐€ b c ๐€"
"๐€๐€"

#take Source

take :: Int -> String -> String

Returns a string containing the given number of code points from the beginning of the given string. If the string does not have that many code points, returns the empty string. Operates in constant space and in time linear to the given number.

>>> take 3 "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
"b ๐€"
-- compare to Data.String:
>>> take 3 "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
"b ๏ฟฝ"

#stripSuffix Source

stripSuffix :: Pattern -> String -> Maybe String

If the string ends with the given suffix, return the portion of the string left after removing it, as a Just value. Otherwise, return Nothing.

stripSuffix (Pattern ".exe") "psc.exe" == Just "psc"
stripSuffix (Pattern ".exe") "psc" == Nothing

#stripPrefix Source

stripPrefix :: Pattern -> String -> Maybe String

If the string starts with the given prefix, return the portion of the string left after removing it, as a Just value. Otherwise, return Nothing.

stripPrefix (Pattern "http:") "http://purescript.org" == Just "//purescript.org"
stripPrefix (Pattern "http:") "https://purescript.org" == Nothing

#splitAt Source

splitAt :: Int -> String -> { after :: String, before :: String }

Splits a string into two substrings, where before contains the code points up to (but not including) the given index, and after contains the rest of the string, from that index on.

>>> splitAt 3 "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
{ before: "b ๐€", after: "๐€ c ๐€" }

Thus the length of (splitAt i s).before will equal either i or length s, if that is shorter. (Or if i is negative the length will be 0.)

In code:

length (splitAt i s).before == min (max i 0) (length s)
(splitAt i s).before <> (splitAt i s).after == s
splitAt i s == {before: take i s, after: drop i s}

#singleton Source

singleton :: CodePoint -> String

Creates a string containing just the given code point. Operates in constant space and time.

#length Source

length :: String -> Int

Returns the number of code points in the string. Operates in constant space and in time linear to the length of the string.

>>> length "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
8
-- compare to Data.String:
>>> length "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
11

#lastIndexOf' Source

lastIndexOf' :: Pattern -> Int -> String -> Maybe Int

Returns the number of code points preceding the first match of the given pattern in the string. Pattern matches following the given index will be ignored.

Giving a negative index is equivalent to giving 0 and giving an index greater than the number of code points in the string is equivalent to searching in the whole string.

Returns Nothing when no matches are found.

>>> lastIndexOf' (Pattern "๐€") (-1) "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
Nothing
>>> lastIndexOf' (Pattern "๐€") 0 "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"

Just 3
>>> lastIndexOf' (Pattern "๐€") 8 "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"

Nothing

#lastIndexOf Source

Nothing

#indexOf' Source

indexOf' :: Pattern -> Int -> String -> Maybe Int

Returns the number of code points preceding the first match of the given pattern in the string. Pattern matches preceding the given index will be ignored. Returns Nothing when no matches are found.

>>> indexOf' (Pattern "๐€") 4 "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
Just 7
>>> indexOf' (Pattern "o") 4 "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
Nothing

#indexOf Source

Returns the number of code points preceding the first match of the given pattern in the string. Returns Nothing when no matches are found.

>>> indexOf (Pattern "๐€") "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"
Just 2
>>> indexOf (Pattern "o") "b ๐€๐€ c ๐€"

#fromCodePointArray Source

#drop Source

drop :: Int -> String -> String

Drops the given number of code points from the beginning of the string. If the string does not have that many code points, returns the empty string. Operates in constant space and in time linear to the given number.

>>> drop 5 "๐€๐€ b c"
"c"
-- compared to Data.String:
>>> drop 5 "๐€๐€ b c"
"b c" -- because "๐€" occupies 2 code units

#countPrefix Source

>>> charAt 1 "๐€๐€๐€๐€"
Just '๏ฟฝ'
