The enum Either
with variants Left
and Right
is a general purpose
sum type with two cases.
Either has methods that are similar to Option and Result, and it also implements
traits like Iterator
.
Includes macros try_left!()
and try_right!()
to use for
short-circuiting logic, similar to how the ?
operator is used with Result
.
Note that Either
is general purpose. For describing success or error, use the
regular Result
.
