final class Chain[+T] extends AnyVal

A non-empty list: an ordered, immutable, non-empty collection of elements with LinearSeq performance characteristics.

The purpose of Chain is to allow you to express in a type that a List is non-empty, thereby eliminating the need for (and potential exception from) a run-time check for non-emptiness. For a non-empty sequence with IndexedSeq performance, see Every.

Constructing Chains

You can construct a Chain by passing one or more elements to the Chain.apply factory method:

scala> Chain(1, 2, 3)
res0: org.scalactic.Chain[Int] = Chain(1, 2, 3)

Alternatively you can cons elements onto the End singleton object, similar to making a List starting with Nil:

scala> 1 :: 2 :: 3 :: Nil
res0: List[Int] = List(1, 2, 3)

scala> 1 :: 2 :: 3 :: End
res1: org.scalactic.Chain[Int] = Chain(1, 2, 3)

Note that although Nil is a List[Nothing], End is not a Chain[Nothing], because no empty Chain exists. (A chain is a series of connected links; if you have no links, you have no chain.)

scala> val nil: List[Nothing] = Nil
nil: List[Nothing] = List()

scala> val nada: Chain[Nothing] = End
<console>:16: error: type mismatch;
found   : org.scalactic.End.type
required: org.scalactic.Chain[Nothing]
       val nada: Chain[Nothing] = End
                                  ^

Working with Chains

Chain does not extend Scala's Seq or Traversable traits because these require that implementations may be empty. For example, if you invoke tail on a Seq that contains just one element, you'll get an empty Seq:

scala> List(1).tail
res6: List[Int] = List()

On the other hand, many useful methods exist on Seq that when invoked on a non-empty Seq are guaranteed to not result in an empty Seq. For convenience, Chain defines a method corresponding to every such Seq method. Here are some examples:

Chain(1, 2, 3).map(_ + 1)                 // Result: Chain(2, 3, 4)
Chain(1).map(_ + 1)                       // Result: Chain(2)
Chain(1, 2, 3).containsSlice(Chain(2, 3)) // Result: true
Chain(1, 2, 3).containsSlice(Chain(3, 4)) // Result: false
Chain(-1, -2, 3, 4, 5).minBy(_.abs)       // Result: -1

Chain does not currently define any methods corresponding to Seq methods that could result in an empty Seq. However, an implicit converison from Chain to List is defined in the Chain companion object that will be applied if you attempt to call one of the missing methods. As a result, you can invoke filter on an Chain, even though filter could result in an empty sequence—but the result type will be List instead of Chain:

Chain(1, 2, 3).filter(_ < 10) // Result: List(1, 2, 3)
Chain(1, 2, 3).filter(_ > 10) // Result: List()

You can use Chains in for expressions. The result will be an Chain unless you use a filter (an if clause). Because filters are desugared to invocations of filter, the result type will switch to a List at that point. Here are some examples:

scala> import org.scalactic._
import org.scalactic._

scala> for (i <- Chain(1, 2, 3)) yield i + 1
res0: org.scalactic.Chain[Int] = Chain(2, 3, 4)

scala> for (i <- Chain(1, 2, 3) if i < 10) yield i + 1
res1: List[Int] = List(2, 3, 4)

scala> for {
     |   i <- Chain(1, 2, 3)
     |   j <- Chain('a', 'b', 'c')
     | } yield (i, j)
res3: org.scalactic.Chain[(Int, Char)] =
        Chain((1,a), (1,b), (1,c), (2,a), (2,b), (2,c), (3,a), (3,b), (3,c))

scala> for {
     |   i <- Chain(1, 2, 3) if i < 10
     |   j <- Chain('a', 'b', 'c')
     | } yield (i, j)
res6: List[(Int, Char)] =
        List((1,a), (1,b), (1,c), (2,a), (2,b), (2,c), (3,a), (3,b), (3,c))
