       Streams and parsers.

       type'at

       The type of streams holding values of type 'a .

       exceptionFailure

       Raised by parsers when none of the first components of the stream patterns is accepted.

       exceptionErrorofstring

       Raised  by  parsers  when  the  first component of a stream pattern is accepted, but one of the following
       components is rejected.

   Streambuildersvalfrom : (int->'aoption)->'atStream.fromf returns a stream built from the function f .  To create a new stream element, the  function
       f  is  called  with  the  current stream count. The user function f must return either Some<value> for a
       value or None to specify the end of the stream.

       Do note that the indices passed to f may not start at 0 in the general case.  For  example,  [<'0;'1;Stream.fromf>] would call f the first time with count 2 .

       valof_list : 'alist->'at

       Return the stream holding the elements of the list in the same order.

       valof_string : string->chart

       Return the stream of the characters of the string parameter.

       valof_bytes : bytes->chart

       Return the stream of the characters of the bytes parameter.

       Since 4.02.0

       valof_channel : in_channel->chart

       Return the stream of the characters read from the input channel.

   Streamiteratorvaliter : ('a->unit)->'at->unitStream.iterfs scans the whole stream s, applying function f in turn to each stream element encountered.

   Predefinedparsersvalnext : 'at->'a

       Return the first element of the stream and remove it from the stream.

       RaisesStream.Failure if the stream is empty.

       valempty : 'at->unit

       Return () if the stream is empty, else raise Stream.Failure .

   Usefulfunctionsvalpeek : 'at->'aoption

       Return Some of "the first element" of the stream, or None if the stream is empty.

       valjunk : 'at->unit

       Remove the first element of the stream, possibly unfreezing it before.

       valcount : 'at->int

       Return the current count of the stream elements, i.e. the number of the stream elements discarded.

       valnpeek : int->'at->'alistnpeekn  returns  the  list of the n first elements of the stream, or all its remaining elements if less
       than n elements are available.
