type 'a t = unit -> 'a node

The type of delayed lists containing elements of type 'a. Note that the concrete list node 'a node is delayed under a closure, not a lazy block, which means it might be recomputed every time we access it.

and +'a node = 'a Seq.node =
  1. | Nil
  2. | Cons of 'a * 'a t

A fully-evaluated list node, either empty or containing an element and a delayed tail.

val empty : 'a t

The empty sequence, containing no elements.

val return : 'a -> 'a t

The singleton sequence containing only the given element.

val cons : 'a -> 'a t -> 'a t

cons x xs is the sequence containing the element x followed by the sequence xs

  • since 4.11
val append : 'a t -> 'a t -> 'a t

append xs ys is the sequence xs followed by the sequence ys

val map : ('a -> 'b) -> 'a t -> 'b t

map f seq returns a new sequence whose elements are the elements of seq, transformed by f. This transformation is lazy, it only applies when the result is traversed.

If seq = [1;2;3], then map f seq = [f 1; f 2; f 3].

val filter : ('a -> bool) -> 'a t -> 'a t

Remove from the sequence the elements that do not satisfy the given predicate. This transformation is lazy, it only applies when the result is traversed.

val filter_map : ('a -> 'b option) -> 'a t -> 'b t

Apply the function to every element; if f x = None then x is dropped; if f x = Some y then y is returned. This transformation is lazy, it only applies when the result is traversed.

val flat_map : ('a -> 'b t) -> 'a t -> 'b t

Map each element to a subsequence, then return each element of this sub-sequence in turn. This transformation is lazy, it only applies when the result is traversed.

val fold_left : ('a -> 'b -> 'a) -> 'a -> 'b t -> 'a

Traverse the sequence from left to right, combining each element with the accumulator using the given function. The traversal happens immediately and will not terminate on infinite sequences.

Also see List.fold_left

val iter : ('a -> unit) -> 'a t -> unit

Iterate on the sequence, calling the (imperative) function on every element. The traversal happens immediately and will not terminate on infinite sequences.

val unfold : ('b -> ('a * 'b) option) -> 'b -> 'a t

Build a sequence from a step function and an initial value. unfold f u returns empty if f u returns None, or fun () -> Cons (x, unfold f y) if f u returns Some (x, y).

For example, unfold (function [] -> None | h::t -> Some (h,t)) l is equivalent to List.to_seq l.
