Option::and_then(|v| ...(&v).then_some(v)) to Option::filter(|v| ...(v))

[A4-Tacks]

What it does

Improve the code to be more concise

Advantage

• Less and cleaner

Drawbacks

No response

Example

fn foo() {
    let x = Some("foo".to_owned());

    let _y = x.and_then(|v| v.starts_with('f')
        .then_some(v));
}

Could be written as:

fn foo() {
    let x = Some("foo".to_owned());

    let _y = x.filter(|v| v.starts_with('f'));
}
