如何过滤Maybe值

我正在尝试创建一个验证输入String -> Maybe Int的函数。我检查输入字符串是否是数字然后检查该数字是否在一个范围内。到目前为止我已经

validateNumber :: String -> Maybe Int
validateNumber n  = go $ (readMaybe::String -> Maybe Int) n
  where
    go (Just a) = inRange a
    go Nothing  = Nothing

inRange :: Int -> Maybe Int
inRange n
  | n > 0     = Just n
  | otherwise = Nothing

这感觉就像糟糕的代码。该怎么写?

另外,如果我试图循环一个函数,如果它返回Nothing,那么最好的方法是什么:

所以要循环main函数,我正在做:

case v of
  Nothing -> main
  Just x  -> {do something}

您可以使用mfilter过滤Maybe范围内的超出范围的值,而不是明确匹配:

import Control.Monad (mfilter)

validateNumber :: String -> Maybe Int
validateNumber = mfilter (> 0) . readMaybe

这个怎么样?

validateNumber :: String -> Maybe Int
validateNumber n = (readMaybe n) >>= inRange

甚至这个:

validateNumber :: String -> Maybe Int
validateNumber str = do
  n <- readMaybe str
  if n < 0 then Nothing else return n

(避免需要单独的inRange功能。)

我会尝试这样的事情(未经测试):

validateNumber :: String -> Maybe Int
validateNumber n = case (readMaybe::String -> Maybe Int) n of
    (Just a) -> case n > 0 of
        True  -> Just n
        False -> Nothing
    Nothing  -> Nothing

它有点短,更简洁。
