Question

if I have array A, and I have another bool array isChosen with the same length of A how can I build a new array from A where isChosen is true? something like A.[isChosen]? I cannot use Array.filter directly since isChosen is not a function of A elements and there is no Array.filteri like Array.mapi.

zip should help:

let l = [|1;2;3|]
let f = [|true; false; true|]

let r = [| for (v, f) in Seq.zip l f do if f then yield v|]
// or
let r = (l, f) ||> Seq.zip |> Seq.filter snd |> Seq.map fst |> Seq.toArray
