Drop elements from each end of @racket[_lst] that satisfy @racket[_pred]. Exactly equivalent to @racket[(dropf-right (dropf _lst _pred) _pred)].
@examples[#:eval my-eval
(trimf '(1 2 3 a b c 4 5 6) integer?)
(trimf '(1 2 3 a b c) integer?)
(trimf '(a b c) integer?)
(trimf '(a b c 1 2 3 d e f) integer?)]
@defproc[

Like @racket[string-split], but for lists. Drop elements from anywhere in @racket[_lst] that satisfy @racket[_pred] — ends, middle, you name it — and return a list of the sublists that remain.
@examples[#:eval my-eval
(filter-split '(1 a b c 2 d e f 3) integer?)
(filter-split '(1 a b c 2 d e f 3) (compose notinteger?))
(filter-split '(a b c 1 2 3 d e f) integer?)
(filter-split '(a b c 1 2 3 d e f) (compose notinteger?))]
Divide @racket[_lst] into sublists of length @racket[_len]. If @racket[_lst] cannot be divided evenly by @racket[_len], the last sublist will be shorter. If this displeases you, set @racket[_force?] to @racket[#t] and a stumpy final sublist will be ignored.
@examples[#:eval my-eval
(slice-at (range 5) 1)
(slice-at (range 5) 2)
(slice-at (range 5) 2 #t)
(slice-at (range 5) 3)
(slice-at (range 5) 5)
(slice-at (range 5) 5 #t)
(slice-at (range 5) 100000)
(slice-at (range 5) 100000 #t)]
@defproc[
(slicef-at
[lst list?]
[pred procedure?]
[force? boolean? #f])
(listof list?)]
Divide @racket[_lst] into sublists starting with elements matching @racket[_pred]. The first element of the first sublist may not match @racket[_pred]. Or, if you really & truly want only the sublists starting with an element matching @racket[_pred], set @racket[_force?] to @racket[#t].
Count the frequency of each element in @racket[_lst], and return a hash whose keys are the unique elements of @racket[_lst], and each value is the frequency of that element within @racket[_lst].
@examples[#:eval my-eval
(frequency-hash '(a b b c c c))
(frequency-hash '(c b c a b c))
]
@defproc[
(members-unique?
[container (or/c list? vector? string?)])
boolean?]
Return @racket[#t] if every element in @racket[_container] is unique, otherwise @racket[#f].
@examples[#:eval my-eval
(members-unique? '(a b c d e f))
(members-unique? '(a b c d e f a))
]
@defproc[
(members-unique?/error
[container (or/c list? vector? string?)])
boolean?]
Same as @racket[members-unique?], but if the members are not unique, raises a descriptive error rather than returning @racket[#f].
A special version of @racket[when] that you can use inside @racket[quasiquote] to suppress @racket[void] values when @racket[_test] is @racket[#f]. As the name suggests, it works in conjunction with the @litchar["@"] splicing operator.
Return a sublist of the @racket[_lst] starting with item @racket[_start-idx] and ending one item @bold{before} item @racket[_end-idx]. (Similar to how list slices are denominated in Python.) Thus the maximum value for @racket[_end-idx] is @racketfont{(length @racket[_lst])}. Errors will be triggered by nonsensical values for @racket[_end-idx].
@examples[#:eval my-eval
(sublist '(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8) 0 8)
(sublist '(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8) 8 9)
(sublist '(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8) 2 5)
(sublist '(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8) 5 2)
(sublist '(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8) 2 10)
]
@defproc[
(break-at
[lst list?]
[indexes (or/c integer? (listof? integer?))])
(listof list?)]
Break @racket[_lst] into smaller lists at the index positions in @racket[_indexes]. If a single integer value is given for @racket[_indexes], it's treated as a one-element list. Error if a breakpoint index exceeds the length of the list, or if the breakpoints are not increasing.
