<A>(self: NonEmptyReadonlyArray<A>): [
firstElement: A,
remainingElements: Array<A>
]Splits a non-empty array into its first element and the remaining elements.
When to use
Use when you have a NonEmptyReadonlyArray and need both its first element
and the remaining elements as separate values.
Details
Returns a tuple [head, tail] and requires a NonEmptyReadonlyArray.
Example (Destructuring head and tail)
import { Array } from "effect"
const result = Array.unprepend([1, 2, 3, 4])
console.log(result) // [1, [2, 3, 4]]Source effect/Array.ts:10253 lines

type NonEmptyReadonlyArray<A> = readonly [
A,
...A[]
]
A readonly array guaranteed to have at least one element.
When to use
Use when non-emptiness must be tracked at the type level while preventing mutation.
Many Array module functions accept or return this type.
Example (Typing a non-empty array)
import type { Array } from "effect"
const nonEmpty: Array.NonEmptyReadonlyArray<number> = [1, 2, 3]
const head: number = nonEmpty[0] // guaranteed to exist
NonEmptyReadonlyArray<function (type parameter) A in <A>(self: NonEmptyReadonlyArray<A>): [firstElement: A, remainingElements: Array<A>]A>

self: NonEmptyReadonlyArray<A>
) => A
Returns the first element of a NonEmptyReadonlyArray directly (no Option
wrapper).
When to use
Use to get the first element without Option wrapping when the array is known
to be non-empty.
Example (Getting the head of a non-empty array)
import { Array } from "effect"
console.log(Array.headNonEmpty([1, 2, 3, 4])) // 1

const tailNonEmpty: <A>(
self: NonEmptyReadonlyArray<A>
) => Array<A>
Returns all elements except the first of a NonEmptyReadonlyArray.
When to use
Use to get all elements after the first when the array is known to be non-empty.
