Re: How do you use Data.Text.intersperse :: Char -> Text -> Text?

Carter, you might want to take a look at Elixir's standard library, which (in my experience) has a good position when it comes to graphemes https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/String.html Le 27/06/2021 à 15:58, Carter Schonwald a écrit :

More deeply, it doesn’t suffice to guarantee you’re gonna have a well formed unicode sequence!

It’d need to be grapheme -> text -> text  right?

I’ve def wanted to dig into how to make programming more grapheme oriented for text at some point.  I think swift explcitly does this in their standard libraries ?

Yeah, that looks silly indeed.  Should be pruned or marked as spam.

"Spam" is a bit harsh.  And it does indeed have some use (albeit primarily with test suites and quite possibly more efficient ways to do the required task anyway): https://github.com/search?l=Haskell&q=Text.intersperse&type=Code https://github.com/search?l=Haskell&q=Text.intersperse&type=Code

Am I correct assuming that its sole merit is to mimic `Data.List` API? Note that `Data.List.intersperse` is polymorphic and is exceedingly rarely used for `Char -> String -> String`. > > Best regards, > Andrew > _______________________________________________ > Libraries mailing list > Libraries@haskell.org mailto:Libraries@haskell.org > http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libraries http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libraries > _______________________________________________ Libraries mailing list Libraries@haskell.org mailto:Libraries@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libraries http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libraries
