Order overview

This module provides an implementation of the Order type class which is used to define a total ordering on some type A. An order is defined by a relation <=, which obeys the following laws:

  • either x <= y or y <= x (totality)
  • if x <= y and y <= x, then x == y (antisymmetry)
  • if x <= y and y <= z, then x <= z (transitivity)

The truth table for compare is defined as follows:

x <= y x >= y Ordering  
true true 0 corresponds to x == y
true false < 0 corresponds to x < y
false true > 0 corresponds to x > y

combinators

array

This function creates and returns a new Order for an array of values based on a given Order for the elements of the array. The returned Order compares two arrays by applying the given Order to each element in the arrays. If all elements are equal, the arrays are then compared based on their length. It is useful when you need to compare two arrays of the same type and you have a specific way of comparing each element of the array.

Signature

export declare const array: <A>(O: Order<A>) => Order<ReadonlyArray<A>>

Added in v2.0.0

struct

This function creates and returns a new Order for a struct of values based on the given Orders for each property in the struct.

Signature

export declare const struct: <R extends { readonly [x: string]: Order<any> }>(
  fields: R
) => Order<{ [K in keyof R]: [R[K]] extends [Order<infer A>] ? A : never }>

Added in v2.0.0

tuple

Similar to Promise.all but operates on Orders.

[Order<A>, Order<B>, ...] -> Order<[A, B, ...]>

This function creates and returns a new Order for a tuple of values based on the given Orders for each element in the tuple. The returned Order compares two tuples of the same type by applying the corresponding Order to each element in the tuple. It is useful when you need to compare two tuples of the same type and you have a specific way of comparing each element of the tuple.

Signature

export declare const tuple: <T extends ReadonlyArray<Order<any>>>(
  ...elements: T
) => Order<Readonly<{ [I in keyof T]: [T[I]] extends [Order<infer A>] ? A : never }>>
