Language Design: Naming Conventions
Part 3: Options
Published on 2024-07-05.
| Name | Example |
|---|---|
or |
Some(1).or(Some(2)) --> Some(1) None.or(Some(2)) --> Some(2) |
orElse |
Some(1).orElse(2) --> Some(1) None.orElse(2) --> Some(2) |
orGet |
Some(1).orGet(() -> Some(2)) --> Some(1) None.orGet(() -> Some(2)) --> Some(2) None.orGet(() -> None) --> None |
orElseGet |
Some(1).orElseGet(() -> 2) --> Some(1) None.orElseGet(() -> 2) --> Some(2) |
orElsePanic |
Some(1).orElsePanic() --> 1 None.orElsePanic() # program aborts |
orElsePanicWith |
Some(1).orElsePanicWith("expected some") --> 1 None.orElsePanicWith("expected some") # program aborts with message "expected some" |
Naming scheme:
...Else...indicates going fromOption[T]toT...Getindicates a closure argument- all panicking methods contain
...Panic
