let keepU: option('a) => Js.Fn.arity1(('a => bool)) => option('a);
Uncurried version of keep
keep optionValue p
If optionValue
is Some value
and p value = true
, it returns Some value
; otherwise returns None
keep (Some 10)(fun x -> x > 5);; (* returns [Some 10] *)
keep (Some 4)(fun x -> x > 5);; (* returns [None] *)
keep None (fun x -> x > 5);; (* returns [None] *)
let forEachU: option('a) => Js.Fn.arity1(('a => unit)) => unit;
Uncurried version of forEach
forEach optionValue f
If optionValue
is Some value
, it calls f value
; otherwise returns ()
forEach (Some "thing")(fun x -> Js.log x);; (* logs "thing" *)
forEach None (fun x -> Js.log x);; (* returns () *)
getExn optionalValue
Returns value
if optionalValue
is Some value
, otherwise raises getExn
getExn (Some 3) = 3;;
getExn None (* Raises getExn error *)
getUnsafe x
returns x This is an unsafe operation, it assumes x is neither not None or (Some (None .. ))
let mapWithDefaultU: option('a) => 'b => Js.Fn.arity1(('a => 'b)) => 'b;
Uncurried version of mapWithDefault
mapWithDefault optionValue default f
If optionValue
is Some value
, returns f value

Uncurried version of map
map optionValue f
If optionValue
is Some value
, returns Some (f value)
; otherwise returns None

let flatMapU: option('a) => Js.Fn.arity1(('a => option('b))) => option('b);
Uncurried version of flatMap
flatMap optionValue f
If optionValue
is Some value
, returns f value
; otherwise returns None
The function f
must have a return type of 'a option

let eqU: option('a) => option('b) => Js.Fn.arity2(('a => 'b => bool)) => bool;
Uncurried version of eq
eq optValue1 optvalue2 predicate
Evaluates two optional values for equality with respect to a predicate function.
If both optValue1
and optValue2
are None
, returns true
.
If one of the arguments is Some value
and the other is None
, returns false
If arguments are Some value1
and Some value2
, returns the result of predicate value1 value2
; the predicate
function must return a bool
let clockEqual = (fun a b -> a mod 12 = b mod 12);;

eq None None clockEqual = true;;
let cmpU: option('a) => option('b) => Js.Fn.arity2(('a => 'b => int)) => int;
Uncurried version of cmp
cmp optValue1 optvalue2 comparisonFcn
Compares two optional values with respect to a comparison function
If both optValue1
and optValue2
are None
, returns 0.
If the first argument is Some value1
and the second is None
, returns 1 (something is greater than nothing)
If the first argument is None
and the second is Some value2
, returns -1 (nothing is less than something)
If the arguments are Some value1
and Some value2
, returns the result of comparisonFcn value1 value2
; comparisonFcn
takes two arguments and returns -1 if the first argument is less than the second, 0 if the arguments are equal, and 1 if the first argument is greater than the second.
