defmodule ExResult do
@moduledoc """
Module for working with "result" tuples. Provides helpers for wrapping,
unwrapping, and transforming result tuples.
An opinionated stance on what constitutes a "result" tuple is taken here. A
result tuple is a tuple of the form `{:ok, value}` or `{:error, value}` and
nothing else.
These helpers are most useful in pipelines.
