C++11/14/17 std::optional with functional-style extensions and reference support
Single header implementation of std::optional
with functional-style extensions and support for references.
Clang + GCC:
MSVC: 
std::optional
is the preferred way to represent an object which may or may not have a value. Unfortunately, chaining together many computations which may or may not produce a value can be verbose, as empty-checking code will be mixed in with the actual programming logic. This implementation provides a number of utilities to make coding with optional
