/**
 * ```ts
 * type Either<E, A> = Left<E> | Right<A>
 * ```
 *
 * Represents a value of one of two possible types (a disjoint union).
 *
 * An instance of `Either` is either an instance of `Left` or `Right`.
 *
 * A common use of `Either` is as an alternative to `Option` for dealing with possible missing values. In this usage,
 * `None` is replaced with a `Left` which can contain useful information. `Right` takes the place of `Some`. Convention
 * dictates that `Left` is used for failure and `Right` is used for success.
 *
 *
 * @example
 * import * as E from 'fp-ts/Either'
 * import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'
 *
 * const double = (n: number): number => n * 2
 *
 * export const imperative = (as: ReadonlyArray<number>): string => {
 *   const head = (as: ReadonlyArray<number>): number => {
 *     if (as.length === 0) {
 *       throw new Error('empty array')
 *     }
 *     return as[0]
 *   }
 *   const inverse = (n: number): number => {
 *     if (n === 0) {
 *       throw new Error('cannot divide by zero')
 *     }
 *     return 1 / n
 *   }
 *   try {
 *     return `Result is ${inverse(double(head(as)))}`
 *   } catch (err: any) {
 *     return `Error is ${err.message}`
 *   }
 * }
 *
 * export const functional = (as: ReadonlyArray<number>): string => {
 *   const head = <A>(as: ReadonlyArray<A>): E.Either<string, A> =>
 *     as.length === 0 ? E.left('empty array') : E.right(as[0])
 *   const inverse = (n: number): E.Either<string, number> =>
 *     n === 0 ? E.left('cannot divide by zero') : E.right(1 / n)
 *   return pipe(
 *     as,
 *     head,
 *     E.map(double),
 *     E.chain(inverse),
 *     E.match(
 *       (err) => `Error is ${err}`, // onLeft handler
 *       (head) => `Result is ${head}` // onRight handler
 *     )
 *   )
 * }
 *
 * assert.deepStrictEqual(imperative([1, 2, 3]), functional([1, 2, 3]))
 * assert.deepStrictEqual(imperative([]), functional([]))
 * assert.deepStrictEqual(imperative([0]), functional([0]))
