Test if a condition holds for all items of a list
Given a list, test if a certain logical condition (i.e. predicate) holds for all items of the list.
python
all(x > 1 for x in [2,3,4])
clojure
(every? #(> % 1) [2 3 4])
fsharp
let rec IsAll predicate source =
let mutable acc = true
for e in source do
acc <- acc && (predicate e)
acc
let mutable acc = true
for e in source do
acc <- acc && (predicate e)
acc
Test if a condition holds for any items of a list
Given a list, test if a certain logical condition (i.e. predicate) holds for any items of the list.
python
any(x > 3 for x in [2, 3, 4])
clojure
; The standard library in Clojure has "not-any?" but (oddly enough) no "any?"
(defn any? [pred coll]
((complement not-any?) pred coll))
(any? #(> % 3) [2 3 4])
(defn any? [pred coll]
((complement not-any?) pred coll))
(any? #(> % 3) [2 3 4])
(some #(> % 3) [2 3 4])
fsharp
let rec IsAny predicate source =
match source with
| [] -> false
| h::t ->
if (predicate h) then true
else (IsAny predicate t )
match source with
| [] -> false
| h::t ->
if (predicate h) then true
else (IsAny predicate t )
