//! # List of parsers and combinators
//!
//! **Note**: this list is meant to provide a nicer way to find a parser than reading through the documentation on docs.rs. Function combinators are organized in module so they are a bit easier to find.
//!
//! ## Basic elements
//!
//! Those are used to recognize the lowest level elements of your grammar, like, "here is a dot", or "here is an big endian integer".
//!
//! | combinator | usage | input | output | comment |
//! |---|---|---|---|---|
//! | [`one_of`][crate::token::one_of] | `one_of("abc")` | `"abc"` | `Ok(("bc", 'a'))` |Matches one of the provided characters (works with non ASCII characters too)|
//! | [`none_of`][crate::token::none_of] | `none_of("abc")` | `"xyab"` | `Ok(("yab", 'x'))` |Matches anything but the provided characters|
//! | [`tag`][crate::token::tag] | `"hello"` | `"hello world"` | `Ok((" world", "hello"))` |Recognizes a specific suite of characters or bytes|
//! | [`tag_no_case`][crate::token::tag_no_case] | `tag_no_case("hello")` | `"HeLLo World"` | `Ok((" World", "HeLLo"))` |Case insensitive comparison. Note that case insensitive comparison is not well defined for unicode, and that you might have bad surprises|
//! | [`take`][crate::token::take] | `take(4)` | `"hello"` | `Ok(("o", "hell"))` |Takes a specific number of bytes or characters|
//! | [`take_while`][crate::token::take_while] | `take_while(0.., is_alphabetic)` | `"abc123"` | `Ok(("123", "abc"))` |Returns the longest list of bytes for which the provided pattern matches.|
//! | [`take_till0`][crate::token::take_till0] | `take_till0(is_alphabetic)` | `"123abc"` | `Ok(("abc", "123"))` |Returns the longest list of bytes or characters until the provided pattern matches. `take_till1` does the same, but must return at least one character. This is the reverse behaviour from `take_while`: `take_till(f)` is equivalent to `take_while(0.., \|c\| !f(c))`|
//! | [`take_until0`][crate::token::take_until0] | `take_until0("world")` | `"Hello world"` | `Ok(("world", "Hello "))` |Returns the longest list of bytes or characters until the provided tag is found. `take_until1` does the same, but must return at least one character|
//!
//! ## Choice combinators
//!
//! | combinator | usage | input | output | comment |
//! |---|---|---|---|---|
//! | [`alt`][crate::combinator::alt] | `alt(("ab", "cd"))` | `"cdef"` | `Ok(("ef", "cd"))` |Try a list of parsers and return the result of the first successful one|
//! | [`dispatch`][crate::combinator::dispatch] | \- | \- | \- | `match` for parsers |
//! | [`permutation`][crate::combinator::permutation] | `permutation(("ab", "cd", "12"))` | `"cd12abc"` | `Ok(("c", ("ab", "cd", "12"))` |Succeeds when all its child parser have succeeded, whatever the order|
//!
//! ## Sequence combinators
//!
//! | combinator | usage | input | output | comment |
//! |---|---|---|---|---|
//! | [`(...)` (tuples)][crate::Parser] | `("ab", "XY", take(1))` | `"abXYZ!"` | `Ok(("!", ("ab", "XY", "Z")))` |Chains parsers and assemble the sub results in a tuple. You can use as many child parsers as you can put elements in a tuple|
//! | [`delimited`] | `delimited(char('('), take(2), char(')'))` | `"(ab)cd"` | `Ok(("cd", "ab"))` ||
//! | [`preceded`] | `preceded("ab", "XY")` | `"abXYZ"` | `Ok(("Z", "XY"))` ||
//! | [`terminated`] | `terminated("ab", "XY")` | `"abXYZ"` | `Ok(("Z", "ab"))` ||
//! | [`separated_pair`] | `separated_pair("hello", char(','), "world")` | `"hello,world!"` | `Ok(("!", ("hello", "world")))` ||
//!
//! ## Applying a parser multiple times
//!
//! | combinator | usage | input | output | comment |
//! |---|---|---|---|---|
//! | [`repeat`][crate::combinator::repeat] | `repeat(1..=3, "ab")` | `"ababc"` | `Ok(("c", vec!["ab", "ab"]))` |Applies the parser between m and n times (n included) and returns the list of results in a Vec|
//! | [`repeat_till0`][crate::combinator::repeat_till0] | `repeat_till0(tag( "ab" ), tag( "ef" ))` | `"ababefg"` | `Ok(("g", (vec!["ab", "ab"], "ef")))` |Applies the first parser until the second applies. Returns a tuple containing the list of results from the first in a Vec and the result of the second|
//! | [`separated0`][crate::combinator::separated0] | `separated0("ab", ",")` | `"ab,ab,ab."` | `Ok((".", vec!["ab", "ab", "ab"]))` |`separated1` works like `separated0` but must returns at least one element|
//! | [`fold_repeat`][crate::combinator::fold_repeat] | `fold_repeat(1..=2, be_u8, \|\| 0, \|acc, item\| acc + item)` | `[1, 2, 3]` | `Ok(([3], 3))` |Applies the parser between m and n times (n included) and folds the list of return value|

//! ## Binary format parsing
//!
//! - [`length_count`][crate::binary::length_count] Gets a number from the first parser, then applies the second parser that many times
//! - [`length_data`][crate::binary::length_data]: Gets a number from the first parser, then takes a subslice of the input of that size, and returns that subslice
//! - [`length_value`][crate::binary::length_value]: Gets a number from the first parser, takes a subslice of the input of that size, then applies the second parser on that subslice. If the second parser returns `Incomplete`, `length_value` will return an error
//!
//! ### Integers
//!
//! Parsing integers from binary formats can be done in two ways: With parser functions, or combinators with configurable endianness.
//!
//! - **configurable endianness:** [`i16`][crate::binary::i16], [`i32`][crate::binary::i32],
//! [`i64`][crate::binary::i64], [`u16`][crate::binary::u16], [`u32`][crate::binary::u32],
//! [`u64`][crate::binary::u64] are combinators that take as argument a
//! [`winnow::binary::Endianness`][crate::binary::Endianness], like this: `i16(endianness)`. If the
//! parameter is `winnow::binary::Endianness::Big`, parse a big endian `i16` integer, otherwise a
//! little endian `i16` integer.
//! - **fixed endianness**: The functions are prefixed by `be_` for big endian numbers, and by `le_` for little endian numbers, and the suffix is the type they parse to. As an example, `be_u32` parses a big endian unsigned integer stored in 32 bits.
//! - [`be_f32`][crate::binary::be_f32], [`be_f64`][crate::binary::be_f64]: Big endian floating point numbers
//! - [`le_f32`][crate::binary::le_f32], [`le_f64`][crate::binary::le_f64]: Little endian floating point numbers
//! - [`be_i8`][crate::binary::be_i8], [`be_i16`][crate::binary::be_i16], [`be_i24`][crate::binary::be_i24], [`be_i32`][crate::binary::be_i32], [`be_i64`][crate::binary::be_i64], [`be_i128`][crate::binary::be_i128]: Big endian signed integers
//! - [`be_u8`][crate::binary::be_u8], [`be_u16`][crate::binary::be_u16], [`be_u24`][crate::binary::be_u24], [`be_u32`][crate::binary::be_u32], [`be_u64`][crate::binary::be_u64], [`be_u128`][crate::binary::be_u128]: Big endian unsigned integers
//! - [`le_i8`][crate::binary::le_i8], [`le_i16`][crate::binary::le_i16], [`le_i24`][crate::binary::le_i24], [`le_i32`][crate::binary::le_i32], [`le_i64`][crate::binary::le_i64], [`le_i128`][crate::binary::le_i128]: Little endian signed integers
//! - [`le_u8`][crate::binary::le_u8], [`le_u16`][crate::binary::le_u16], [`le_u24`][crate::binary::le_u24], [`le_u32`][crate::binary::le_u32], [`le_u64`][crate::binary::le_u64], [`le_u128`][crate::binary::le_u128]: Little endian unsigned integers
//!
//! ### Bit stream parsing
//!
//! - [`bits`][crate::binary::bits::bits]: Transforms the current input type (byte slice `&[u8]`) to a bit stream on which bit specific parsers and more general combinators can be applied
//! - [`bytes`][crate::binary::bits::bytes]: Transforms its bits stream input back into a byte slice for the underlying parser
//! - [`take`][crate::binary::bits::take]: Take a set number of its
//! - [`tag`][crate::binary::bits::tag]: Check if a set number of bis matches a pattern
//! - [`bool`][crate::binary::bits::bool]: Match any one bit
