fp-library 0.17.0

A functional programming library for Rust featuring your favourite higher-kinded types and type classes.
Documentation
//! A newtype wrapper whose [`Semigroup`](crate::classes::Semigroup) instance always keeps the first
//! (leftmost) value.
//!
//! ### Examples
//!
//! ```
//! use fp_library::{
//! 	functions::*,
//! 	types::First,
//! };
//!
//! assert_eq!(append(First(1), First(2)), First(1));
//! ```

	/// A newtype wrapper whose [`Semigroup`] instance always keeps the first value.
	///
	/// `append(First(a), First(b))` returns `First(a)`, discarding `b`.
	///
	/// There is no [`Monoid`] instance because there is no identity element.
