Description

@SoniEx2
/// Trims this slice from the left.
fn trim_left_matches<F: Fn(T) -> bool>(&self, f: F) -> &[T] {
    let mut res = self;
    while res.len() > 0 && f(res[0]) {
        res = res[1..];
    }
    res
}

/// Trims this slice from the right.
fn trim_right_matches<F: Fn(T) -> bool>(&self, f: F) -> &[T] {
    let mut res = self;
    while res.len() > 0 && f(res[res.len()-1]) {
        res = res[..(res.len()-1)];
    }
    res
}

(and so on)

basically turns &["", "", "", "foo", ""] into &["foo", ""], &["", "foo", "", "", ""] into &["", "foo"], etc, depending on what you call.
