	return slices.Contains(n, 1)
  })

  if evenNumbersOpt.IsPresent() {
	fmt.Println("One is present")
  } 

  nilo.FromTuplePtr(getUser(true)).AndThen(getUser2(true)).IfPresent(print)

  _, err := test(false).OrError(errors.New("some err"))
  fmt.Println(err.Error())

  fmt.Println(test(true).MapToString(func(v string) string { return v + ", World" }).OrElse("another string"))
}

func test(b bool) nilo.Optional[string] {
  if b {
	return nilo.Of("Hello")
  }
  return nilo.Empty[string]()
}

func print[T any](v T) {
  fmt.Printf("Value: %#v\n", v)
}

func getUser(b bool) (*int, error) {
  if b {
	i := 1
	return &i, nil
  }
  return nil, errors.New("error")
}

func getUser2(b bool) (int, error) {
  if b {
	return 2, nil
  }
  return 0, errors.New("error")
