| Summary | 0005826: List.take function |
| Description | I think it would be really good to add a function
List.take : a' list -> int -> 'a list
which could work similarly to List.nth except for returning a list of items up to and including the 'nth' one.
This seems like a useful core function for the standard library rather than having to download an extension library to handle it.
I'd find it most useful for finding the top 'n' items in a list: doing a List.sort followed by List.take
Thanks for considering this request. |
