Scala : Either, Left, Right Example

// Either... Left.. Right
scala>  def menu(day:String): Either[Int,String] = {
     |  if (day == "Sunday") Right("Fish Curry")
     |  else if (day == "Monday") Right("Veg Fry")
     |  else Left(0)
     |  }
menu: (day: String)Either[Int,String]

scala> println(menu("Sunday"))
Right(Fish Curry)

scala> println(menu("Monday"))
Right(Veg Fry)

scala> println(menu("Tuesday"))
Left(0)


  menu(input) match {
 case Left(a) => println("Left Answer is : " + a)
 case Right(b) => println("Right Answer is : " + b)
 }
 Right Answer is : Fish Curry

 scala> val c = menu("Monday")
c: Either[Int,String] = Right(Veg Fry)

scala> c.isRight
res3: Boolean = true

scala> c.isLeft
res4: Boolean = false


scala> val c = menu("Monday")
c: Either[Int,String] = Right(Veg Fry)

scala> c.isLeft
res5: Boolean = false
scala>
scala> c.isRight
res6: Boolean = true

scala> val input = "Sunday"
input: String = Sunday

scala> if (menu(input).isLeft) menu(input).left.map( a => println("Answer is : " + a))
res7: Any = ()


scala>  if (menu(input).isRight) menu(input).right.map( b => println("Answer is : " + b))
Answer is : Fish Curry
res1: Any = Right(())



scala> val c = menu("Monday")
c: Either[Int,String] = Right(Veg Fry)

scala> c
res3: Either[Int,String] = Right(Veg Fry)


scala> c.left.toOption
res8: Option[Int] = None

scala> c.right.toOption
res9: Option[String] = Some(Veg Fry)

  // a few different ways to use Either, Left, and Right
  println(divideXByY(1, 0))
