Treatment arrange

std/flow::arrange

Generics

◻ T (any)

Inputs

⇥ a: Stream<T>
⇥ b: Stream<T>
⇥ select: Stream<bool>

Outputs

↦ value: Stream<T>

Arrange two streams as one.

The two streams are merged using the select stream:

• when true, value from a is used;
• when false, value from b is used.

ℹ️ No value from either a or b are discarded, they are used when select give turn.

⚠️ When select ends merge terminates without treating the remaining values from a and b. When select give turn to a or b while the concerned stream is ended, the merge terminates. Merge continues as long as select and concerned stream does, while the other can be ended.
