bool-extras
I've just uploaded a package to Hackage that contains a similar function to the proposed if'
.
It's called bool
after the data type, similarly to maybe
and either
. Its arguments are in the exact opposite order of the if'
function, since I think this makes partial application easier (everywhere I've used it, I either provide the first or the first two arguments).
