Find `value` _among `values`, returning the 1-based index
of the first matching value in `values`, or `0` if `value`
is not _among `values`. The predicate `pred` is used to
compare values, and uses equality by default.

    value = The value to search for.
    values = The values to compare the value to.

Returns:
    0 if value was not found among the values, otherwise the index of the
    found value plus one is returned.

/**
Executes and returns one of a collection of handlers based on the type of the
switch object.

The first choice that `switchObject` can be casted to the type
of argument it accepts will be called with `switchObject` casted to that
type, and the value it'll return will be returned by `castSwitch`.

If a choice's return type is void, the choice must throw an exception, unless
all the choices are void. In that case, castSwitch itself will return void.

Throws: If none of the choice matches, a `SwitchError` will be thrown.  $(D
SwitchError) will also be thrown if not all the choices are void and a void
choice was executed without throwing anything.

Params:
    choices = The `choices` needs to be composed of function or delegate
        handlers that accept one argument. There can also be a choice that
        accepts zero arguments. That choice will be invoked if the $(D
        switchObject) is null.
    switchObject = the object against which the tests are being made.

Returns:
    The value of the selected choice.

Note: `castSwitch` can only be used with object types.

// cmp
/**********************************
Performs a lexicographical comparison on two
$(REF_ALTTEXT input ranges, isInputRange, std,range,primitives).
Iterating `r1` and `r2` in lockstep, `cmp` compares each element
`e1` of `r1` with the corresponding element `e2` in `r2`. If one
of the ranges has been finished, `cmp` returns a negative value
if `r1` has fewer elements than `r2`, a positive value if `r1`
has more elements than `r2`, and `0` if the ranges have the same
number of elements.

If the ranges are strings, `cmp` performs UTF decoding
appropriately and compares the ranges one code point at a time.

A custom predicate may be specified, in which case `cmp` performs
a three-way lexicographical comparison using `pred`. Otherwise
the elements are compared using `opCmp`.

Params:
    pred = Predicate used for comparison. Without a predicate
        specified the ordering implied by `opCmp` is used.
    r1 = The first range.
    r2 = The second range.

Returns:
    `0` if the ranges compare equal. A negative value if `r1` is a prefix of `r2` or
    the first differing element of `r1` is less than the corresponding element of `r2`
    according to `pred`. A positive value if `r2` is a prefix of `r1` or the first
    differing element of `r2` is less than the corresponding element of `r1`
    according to `pred`.

Note:
    An earlier version of the documentation incorrectly stated that `-1` is the
    only negative value returned and `1` is the only positive value returned.
    Whether that is true depends on the types being compared.

    /++
    Compares two or more ranges for equality. The ranges may have
    different element types, as long as all are comparable by means of
    the `pred`.
    Performs $(BIGOH min(rs[0].length, rs[1].length, ...)) evaluations of `pred`. However, if
    `equal` is invoked with the default predicate, the implementation may take the liberty
    to use faster implementations that have the theoretical worst-case
    $(BIGOH max(rs[0].length, rs[1].length, ...)).

    At least one of the ranges must be finite. If one range involved is infinite, the result is
    (statically known to be) `false`.

    If the ranges have different kinds of UTF code unit (`char`, `wchar`, or
    `dchar`), then they are compared using UTF decoding to avoid
    accidentally integer-promoting units.

    Params:
        rs = The ranges to be compared.

    Returns:
        `true` if and only if all ranges compare _equal element
        for element, according to binary predicate `pred`.

Tip: `equal` can itself be used as a predicate to other functions.
This can be very useful when the element type of a range is itself a
range. In particular, `equal` can be its own predicate, allowing
range of range (of range...) comparisons.

sequence of `EditOp` encodes the steps that need to be taken to
convert `s` into `t`. For example, if `s = "cat"` and $(D

skip two characters, replace 't' with 'r', and insert an 's'. Working

`choices` needs to be composed of pairs of test expressions and return

`pred`(`switchExpression` is the first argument) and if that yields true -
the return expression is returned.

Both the test and the return expressions are lazily evaluated.

Params:

switchExpression = The first argument for the predicate.

choices = Pairs of test expressions and return expressions. The test
expressions will be the second argument for the predicate, and the return
expression will be returned if the predicate yields true with $(D
switchExpression) and the test expression as arguments.  May also have a
default return expression, that needs to be the last expression without a test
expression before it. A return expression may be of void type only if it
always throws.

Returns: The return expression associated with the first test expression that
made the predicate yield true, or the default return expression if no test
expression matched.

Throws: If there is no default return expression and the predicate does not
yield true with any test expression - `SwitchError` is thrown. $(D
SwitchError) is also thrown if a void return expression was executed without
throwing anything.

alias AllocateGC = Flag!"allocateGC";

/**
Checks if both ranges are permutations of each other.

This function can allocate if the `Yes.allocateGC` flag is passed. This has
the benefit of have better complexity than the `Yes.allocateGC` option. However,
this option is only available for ranges whose equality can be determined via each
element's `toHash` method. If customized equality is needed, then the `pred`
template parameter can be passed, and the function will automatically switch to
the non-allocating algorithm. See $(REF binaryFun, std,functional) for more details on
how to define `pred`.

Non-allocating forward range option: $(BIGOH n^2)
Non-allocating forward range option with custom `pred`: $(BIGOH n^2)
Allocating forward range option: amortized $(BIGOH r1.length) + $(BIGOH r2.length)

Params:
    pred = an optional parameter to change how equality is defined
    allocateGC = `Yes.allocateGC`/`No.allocateGC`
    r1 = A finite $(REF_ALTTEXT forward range, isForwardRange, std,range,primitives)
    r2 = A finite $(REF_ALTTEXT forward range, isForwardRange, std,range,primitives)

Returns:
    `true` if all of the elements in `r1` appear the same number of times in `r2`.
    Otherwise, returns `false`.

/**
Get the _first argument `a` that passes an `if (unaryFun!pred(a))` test.  If
no argument passes the test, return the last argument.

Similar to behaviour of the `or` operator in dynamic languages such as Lisp's
`(or ...)` and Python's `a or b or ...` except that the last argument is
returned upon no match.

Simplifies logic, for instance, in parsing rules where a set of alternative
matchers are tried. The _first one that matches returns it match result,
typically as an abstract syntax tree (AST).

Bugs:
Lazy parameters are currently, too restrictively, inferred by DMD to
always throw even though they don't need to be. This makes it impossible to
currently mark `either` as `nothrow`. See issue at $(BUGZILLA 12647).

Returns:
    The _first argument that passes the test `pred`.
