I\'ve found this question on hubFS, but that handles a splitting criteria based on individual elements. I\'d like to split based on a comparison of adjacent elements, so the
"adjacent" immediately makes me think of Seq.pairwise.
let splitAt pred xs =
if Seq.isEmpty xs then
[]
else
xs
|> Seq.pairwise
|> Seq.fold (fun (curr :: rest as lists) (i, j) -> if pred i j then [j] :: lists else (j :: curr) :: rest) [[Seq.head xs]]
|> List.rev
|> List.map List.rev
Example:
[1;1;2;3;3;3;2;1;2;2]
|> splitAt (>)
Gives:
[[1; 1; 2; 3; 3; 3]; [2]; [1; 2; 2]]
