This release fleshes out the rest of the Applicative implementations for Optional and Array. This adds two new operators to the mix for each type:

  • <* performs an applicative operation, discarding the right hand value
  • *> performs an applicative operation, discarding the left hand value

We're also adding full implementations for Alternative for both types:

  • <|> performs an alternative operation
  • empty constructs an empty value (basically the dual of pure)
  • Optional now has an .or instance method that acts as a named version of <|>.
