Seq.collect<'T,'Collection,'U> Function (F#)

Applies the given function to each element of the sequence and concatenates all the results.

Namespace/Module Path: Microsoft.FSharp.Collections.Seq

Assembly: FSharp.Core (in FSharp.Core.dll)

// Signature:
Seq.collect : ('T -> 'Collection) -> seq<'T> -> seq<'U> (requires 'Collection :> seq<'U>)

// Usage:
Seq.collect mapping source

Parameters

  • mapping
    Type: 'T -> 'Collection

    A function to transform elements of the input sequence into the sequences that are concatenated.

  • source
    Type: seq<'T>

    The input sequence.

Exceptions

Exception

Condition

ArgumentNullException

Thrown when the input sequence is null.

Return Value

The result sequence.

Remarks

The sequence is evaluated lazily. Therefore, effects are delayed until it is enumerated.

This function is named Collect in compiled assemblies. If you are accessing the function from a language other than F#, or through reflection, use this name.

Example

The following code demonstrates the use of Seq.collect.

let addNegations seq1 =
   Seq.collect (fun x -> seq { yield x; yield -x }) seq1
   |> Seq.sort
addNegations [ 1 .. 4 ] |> Seq.iter (fun elem -> printf "%d " elem)
printfn ""
addNegations [| 0; -4; 2; -12 |] |> Seq.iter (fun elem -> printf "%d " elem)

Output

-4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 
-12 -4 -2 0 0 2 4 12
