The unionBy function returns the union of two lists by user-supplied equality predicate.

implementation.
union ['d', 'o', 'g'] ['c', 'o', 'w']
Transposes rows and columns of a list of lists.
with List transpose [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
This also works for non square scenarios, thus
involution does not always hold:
transpose [[], [1, 2]] = [[1], [2]]
transpose (transpose [[], [1, 2]]) = [[1, 2]]

It is equivalent to (take n xs, drop n xs)

Check whether a list is sorted with respect to the default ordering for the type of its elements.
Sort a list using some arbitrary comparison predicate.
how to compare elements
the list to sort
Sort a list using the default ordering for the type of its elements.
The scanl1 function is a variant of scanl that doesn't require an explicit
starting value.
It assumes the first element of the list to be the starting value and then
starts the fold with the element following it.
scanl1 (+) [1,2,3,4]
The scanl function is similar to foldl, but returns all the intermediate
accumulator states in the form of a list.
scanl (+) 0 [1,2,3,4]

Replaces all occurences of the first argument with the second argument in a list.
replaceOn '-' ',' ['1', '-', '2', '-', '3']
The partition function takes a predicate a list and returns the pair of
lists of elements which do and do not satisfy the predicate, respectively;
e.g.,
partition (<3) [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
The nubBy function behaves just like nub, except it uses a user-supplied
equality predicate instead of the overloaded == function.
O(n^2). The nub function removes duplicate elements from a list. In
particular, it keeps only the first occurrence of each element. It is a
special case of nubBy, which allows the programmer to supply their own
equality test.
nub (the (List _) [1,2,1,3])
Decide whether a list is non-empty
Merge two sorted lists using an arbitrary comparison
predicate. Note that the lists must have been sorted using this
predicate already.
Merge two sorted lists using the default ordering for the type of their elements.
Mapping a function over a list doesn't change its length.
Apply a partial function to the elements of a list, keeping the ones at which
it is defined.
Mapping two functions is the same as mapping their composition.
Mapping a function over two lists and appending them is equivalent
to appending them and then mapping the function.

The length of two lists that are appended is the sum of the lengths
of the input lists.

.

The isSuffixOf function takes two lists and returns True iff the first list is a suffix of the second.
Check whether a list is a prefix of another according to a user-supplied equality test.

The isPrefixOf function takes two lists and returns True iff the first list is a prefix of the second.
Returns True

The isInfixOf function takes two lists and returns True iff the first list
is contained, wholly and intact, anywhere within the second.
isInfixOf ['b','c'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
isInfixOf ['b','d'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
Returns True
iff the argument is not empty
Insert some separator between the elements of a list.

Given a separator list and some more lists, produce a new list by
placing the separator between each of the lists.

The deleteBy function behaves like delete, but takes a user-supplied equality predicate.
delete x
removes the first occurrence of x
from its list argument. For
example,
delete 'a' ['b', 'a', 'n', 'a', 'n', 'a']
