> A library wrapping Prelude/Data.List functions that can throw exceptions, such as head and !!. Each unsafe function has up to four variants, e.g. with tail:
 | 
			
		||||
> 
 | 
			
		||||
>     tail :: [a] -> [a], raises an error on tail [].
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
>     tailMay :: [a] -> Maybe [a], turns errors into Nothing.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
>     tailDef :: [a] -> [a] -> [a], takes a default to return on errors.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
>     tailNote :: String -> [a] -> [a], takes an extra argument which supplements the error message.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
>     tailSafe :: [a] -> [a], returns some sensible default if possible, [] in the case of tail.
