Hi Folks,
How would you find the maximum value in this list:
[undefined, 10, undefined, 20]
Is it bad practice to create lists that contain undefined values?
If yes, what is a better way to express in a list a "no value present/available" value?
For example would it be better to express the above list using Maybe:
[Nothing, Just 10, Nothing, Just 20]
Or perhaps something else?
What do you recommend?
/Roger
