Example

The following code example demonstrates the use of Seq.choose to select elements from a sequence by using a lambda expression that uses pattern matching to return an option type.

let numbers = seq {1..20}
let evens = Seq.choose(fun x -> 
                            match x with
                            | x when x%2=0 -> Some(x)
                            | _ -> None ) numbers
printfn "numbers = %A\n" numbers
printfn "evens = %A" evens

numbers = seq [1; 2; 3; 4; ...]

evens = seq [2; 4; 6; 8; ...]
