Description |
|---|---|
append : seq<'T> -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Wraps the two given enumerations as a single concatenated enumeration. |
average : seq<^T> -> ^T |
Returns the average of the elements in the sequence. |
averageBy : ('T -> ^U) -> seq<'T> -> ^U |
Returns the average of the results generated by applying the function to each element of the sequence. |

Returns a sequence that corresponds to a cached version of the input sequence. |
cast : IEnumerable -> seq<'T> |
Wraps a loosely-typed System.Collections sequence as a typed sequence. |

Returns a sequence that is built from the given delayed specification of a sequence. |
distinct : seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Returns a sequence that contains no duplicate entries according to generic hash and equality comparisons on the entries. If an element occurs multiple times in the sequence then the later occurrences are discarded. |
distinctBy : ('T -> 'Key) -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Returns a sequence that contains no duplicate entries according to the generic hash and equality comparisons on the keys returned by the given key-generating function. If an element occurs multiple times in the sequence then the later occurrences are discarded. |
empty : seq<'T> |
Creates an empty sequence. |
exists : ('T -> bool) -> seq<'T> -> bool |
Tests if any element of the sequence satisfies the given predicate. |
exists2 : ('T1 -> 'T2 -> bool) -> seq<'T1> -> seq<'T2> -> bool |
Tests if any pair of corresponding elements of the input sequences satisfies the given predicate. |
filter : ('T -> bool) -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Returns a new collection containing only the elements of the collection for which the given predicate returns true. |

Returns the first element of the sequence. |
init : int -> (int -> 'T) -> seq<'T> |
Generates a new sequence which, when iterated, returns successive elements by calling the given function, up to the given count. The results of calling the function are not saved, that is, the function is reapplied as necessary to regenerate the elements. The function is passed the index of the item being generated. |
initInfinite : (int -> 'T) -> seq<'T> |
Generates a new sequence which, when iterated, will return successive elements by calling the given function. The results of calling the function are not saved, that is, the function will be reapplied as necessary to regenerate the elements. The function is passed the index of the item being generated. |

iter : ('T -> unit) -> seq<'T> -> unit |
Applies the given function to each element of the collection. |
iter2 : ('T1 -> 'T2 -> unit) -> seq<'T1> -> seq<'T2> -> unit |

iteri : (int -> 'T -> unit) -> seq<'T> -> unit |
Applies the given function to each element of the collection. The integer passed to the function indicates the index of element. |
length : seq<'T> -> int |
Returns the length of the sequence. |
map : ('T -> 'U) -> seq<'T> -> seq<'U> |
Creates a new collection whose elements are the results of applying the given function to each of the elements of the collection. The given function will be applied as elements are demanded using the MoveNext method on enumerators retrieved from the object. |
map2 : ('T1 -> 'T2 -> 'U) -> seq<'T1> -> seq<'T2> -> seq<'U> |
Creates a new collection whose elements are the results of applying the given function to the corresponding pairs of elements from the two sequences. If one input sequence is shorter than the other then the remaining elements of the longer sequence are ignored. |
mapi : (int -> 'T -> 'U) -> seq<'T> -> seq<'U> |

max : seq<'T> -> 'T |
Returns the greatest of all elements of the sequence, compared by using Operators.max. |
maxBy : ('T -> 'U) -> seq<'T> -> 'T |
Returns the greatest of all elements of the sequence, compared by using Operators.max on the function result. |

Returns the lowest of all elements of the sequence, compared by using Operators.min. |
minBy : ('T -> 'U) -> seq<'T> -> 'T |
Returns the lowest of all elements of the sequence, compared by using Operators.min on the function result. |
nth : int -> seq<'T> -> 'T |

ofArray : 'T array -> seq<'T> |
Views the given array as a sequence. |
ofList : 'T list -> seq<'T> |
Views the given list as a sequence. |
pairwise : seq<'T> -> seq<'T * 'T> |
Returns a sequence of each element in the input sequence and its predecessor, with the exception of the first element which is only returned as the predecessor of the second element. |
pick : ('T -> 'U option) -> seq<'T> -> 'U |
Applies the given function to successive elements, returning the first value where the function returns a Some value. |
readonly : seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Creates a new sequence object that delegates to the given sequence object. This ensures the original sequence cannot be rediscovered and mutated by a type cast. For example, if given an array the returned sequence will return the elements of the array, but you cannot cast the returned sequence object to an array. |
reduce : ('T -> 'T -> 'T) -> seq<'T> -> 'T |
Applies a function to each element of the sequence, threading an accumulator argument through the computation. Begin by applying the function to the first two elements. Then feed this result into the function along with the third element and so on. Return the final result. |
scan : ('State -> 'T -> 'State) -> 'State -> seq<'T> -> seq<'State> |
Like Seq.fold, but computes on-demand and returns the sequence of intermediary and final results. |
singleton : 'T -> seq<'T> |
Returns a sequence that yields one item only. |
skip : int -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Returns a sequence that skips a specified number of elements of the underlying sequence and then yields the remaining elements of the sequence. |
skipWhile : ('T -> bool) -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Returns a sequence that, when iterated, skips elements of the underlying sequence while the given predicate returns true, and then yields the remaining elements of the sequence. |
sort : seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Yields a sequence ordered by keys. |
sortBy : ('T -> 'Key) -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Applies a key-generating function to each element of a sequence and yield a sequence ordered by keys. The keys are compared using generic comparison as implemented by Operators.compare. |
sum : seq<^T> -> ^T |
Returns the sum of the elements in the sequence. |
Returns the sum of the results generated by applying the function to each element of the sequence. |
|
take : int -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Returns the first elements of the sequence up to a specified count. |
takeWhile : ('T -> bool) -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Returns a sequence that, when iterated, yields elements of the underlying sequence while the given predicate returns true, and then returns no further elements. |
toArray : seq<'T> -> 'T [] |
Creates an array from the given collection. |
toList : seq<'T> -> 'T list |
Creates a list from the given collection. |
truncate : int -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T> |
Returns a sequence that when enumerated returns no more than a specified number of elements. |
tryFind : ('T -> bool) -> seq<'T> -> 'T option |
Returns the first element for which the given function returns true, or None if no such element exists. |
tryFindIndex : ('T -> bool) -> seq<'T> -> int option |
Returns the index of the first element in the sequence that satisfies the given predicate, or None if no such element exists. |
tryPick : ('T -> 'U option) -> seq<'T> -> 'U option |
Applies the given function to successive elements, returning the first value where the function returns a Some value. |
unfold : ('State -> 'T * 'State option) -> 'State -> seq<'T> |
Returns a sequence that contains the elements generated by the given computation. |
windowed : int -> seq<'T> -> seq<'T []> |
Returns a sequence that yields sliding windows of containing elements drawn from the input sequence. Each window is returned as a fresh array. |
zip : seq<'T1> -> seq<'T2> -> seq<'T1 * 'T2> |
Combines the two sequences into a list of pairs. The two sequences need not have equal lengths: when one sequence is exhausted any remaining elements in the other sequence are ignored. |
zip3 : seq<'T1> -> seq<'T2> -> seq<'T3> -> seq<'T1 * 'T2 * 'T3> |
Combines the three sequences into a list of triples. The sequences need not have equal lengths: when one sequence is exhausted any remaining elements in the other sequences are ignored. |
