\TYPE {remove : ((* -> bool) -> * list -> (* # * list))}

\SYNOPSIS
Separates the first element of a list to satisfy a predicate from the rest of
the list.

Fails with {hd} if no element satisfes the predicate. This will always be the
case for an empty list.

\EXAMPLE
{
#remove (\x. x = 3) [1;2;3;4;5;6];;
(3, [1; 2; 4; 5; 6]) : (int # int list)
}
\SEEALSO
