Boolean operators

These methods treat the [Option] as a boolean value, where [Some] acts like [true] and [None] acts like [false]. There are two categories of these methods: ones that take an [Option] as input, and ones that take a function as input (to be lazily evaluated).

The and, or, and xor methods take another [Option] as input, and produce an [Option] as output. Only the and method can produce an [Option<U>] value having a different inner type U than [Option<T>].

method self input output
and None (ignored) None
and Some(x) None None
and Some(x) Some(y) Some(y)
or None None None
or None Some(y) Some(y)
or Some(x) (ignored) Some(x)
xor None None None
xor None Some(y) Some(y)
xor Some(x) None Some(x)
xor Some(x) Some(y) None

The and_then and or_else methods take a function as input, and
only evaluate the function when they need to produce a new value. Only
the and_then method can produce an [Option<U>] value having a
different inner type U than [Option<T>].

method self function input function result output
and_then None (not provided) (not evaluated) None
and_then Some(x) x None None
and_then Some(x) x Some(y) Some(y)
or_else None (not provided) None None
or_else None (not provided) Some(y) Some(y)
or_else Some(x) (not provided) (not evaluated) Some(x)
