Returns a contract that recognizes vectors or hashes or instances of struct struct-id. The data structure must match c and pass the tester.

When an option/c contract is attached to a value, the value is checked against the tester, if tester is a predicate. After that, contract checking is disabled for the value, if with is #f. If with is #t contract checking for the value remains enabled for c.

If waive-option is applied to a value guarded by an option/c contract, then waive-option returns the value after removing the option/c guard. If exercise-option is applied to a value guarded by an option/c contract, then exercise-option returns the value with contract checking enabled for c. If the invariant argument is a predicate, then exercise-option returns the value with contract checking enabled for (invariant/c c invariant #:immutable immutable #:flat? flat? #:struct struct-id).

The arguments flat? and immutable should be provided only if invariant is a predicate. In any other case, the result is a contract error.

> procedure (exercise-option x) → any/c
> x : any/c

Returns x with contract ckecking enabled if an option/c guards x. In any other case it returns x. The result of exercise-option loses the guard related to option/c, if it has one to begin with, and thus its contract checking status cannot change further.

Examples:
> > (module server3 racket
> (require unstable/options)
> (provide (contract-out [foo (option/c (-> number? symbol?))]))
> (define foo (λ (x) x)))
> > (require 'server3 unstable/options)
> (define e-foo (exercise-option foo))
> > (foo 42)
> 42

> value transfer/c : contract?

A contract that accepts any value. If the value is guarded with an option/c contract, transfer/c modifies the blame information for the option/c contract by adding the providing module and its client to the positive and negative blame parties respectively. If the value is not a value guarded with an option/c contract, then transfer/c is equivalent to any/c.

Examples:
> > (module server4 racket
> (require unstable/options)
> (provide (contract-out [foo (option/c (-> number? symbol?))]))
> (define foo (λ (x) x)))
> > (module middleman racket
> (require unstable/options 'server4)
> (provide (contract-out [foo transfer/c])))
> > (require 'middleman unstable/options)
> (define e-foo (exercise-option foo))
> > (e-foo 1)
> foo: broke its contract
> promised: symbol?

> > (module server5 racket

> 42

> procedure (waive-option x) → any/c
> x : any/c

If an option/c guards x, then waive-option returns x without the option/c guard. In any other case it returns x. The result of waive-option loses the guard related to option/c, if it had one to begin with, and thus its contract checking status cannot change further.

Examples:
> > (module server6 racket
> (require unstable/options)
> (provide (contract-out [bar (option/c (-> number? symbol?))]))
> (define bar (λ (x) x)))
> > (require 'server6 unstable/options)
> (define e-bar (waive-option bar))
> > (e-bar 'wrong)
> 'wrong
> > ((waive-option e-bar) 'wrong)
> 'wrong

> procedure (tweak-option x) → any/c
> x : any/c

If an option/c guards x and contract checking for x is enabled, then tweak-option returns x with contract checking for x disabled. If an option/c guards x and contract checking for x is disabled, then tweak-option returns x with contract checking for x enabled. In any other case it returns x. The result of tweak-option retains the guard related to option/c if it has one to begin with and thus its contract checking status can change further using tweak-option, exercise-option or waive-option.

Examples:
> > (module server7 racket
> (require unstable/options)
> (provide (contract-out [bar (option/c (-> number? symbol?))]))
> (define bar (λ (x) x)))
> > (require 'server7 unstable/options)
> (define t-bar (tweak-option bar))
> > (t-bar 'wrong)
> bar: contract violation

> procedure (has-option? v) → boolean?
> v : any/c

Returns #t if v has an option contract.

> procedure (has-option-with-contract? v) → boolean?
> v : any/c

Returns #t if v has an option contract with contract checking enabled.

> flat? : boolean? = #f
> struct-id : (or/c identifier? 'none) = 'none

Returns a contract that recognizes vectors or hashes or instances of struct struct-id. The data structure must match c and satisfy the invariant argument.

If the flat? argument is #t, then the resulting contract is a flat contract, and the c arguments must also be flat contracts. Such flat contracts will be unsound if applied to a mutable data structure, as they will not check future operations on the vector.

If the immutable argument is #t and the c arguments are flat contracts, the result will be a flat contract. If the c arguments are chaperone contracts, then the result will be a chaperone contract.

> (define (sorted? vec)
