Std.Text.Parse.newline

1 declaration

fn

newline: fn(Std.Text.Parse.Input) -> Result[(Str, Std.Text.Parse.Input), Std.Text.Parse.Problem]

This is a callable function.

What it does

One line ending, however the file writes it.

A file written on one system and read on another carries \r\n, and a

parser that only knows \n leaves a stray \r at the end of every field.

That is the commonest way a format parser is wrong about real data.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
  • Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
