Module documentation for 0.3.0.0

Depends on 2 packages(full list with versions):

exceptional

This is a Haskell library that exists to house a type:

data Exceptional x
  = Failure String
  | Success x

It’s much like Maybe, except instead of Nothing, we have Failure String.

A comparison could also be made to Either String. I made this library because I was dissatisfied with the Monad instance for Either. In this type, fail = Failure. It’s rather simple.

Installing

cabal install exceptional

Or, add exceptional to the build-depends field in your .cabal file.
