A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

Hi, I've never used ZIO before so maybe this is a silly question, but with `arrow.fx.coroutines.retry` the doc's say "The effect is executed once, and if it fails..."

How does it determine failure with the effect?

I've managed to achieve what I want with `repeat` and `schedule.doUntil { it.isRight() }` but it would make a little more sense to "retry a network request until is succeeds or fails 5 times" than to "repeat a network request  until it succeeds or fails 5 times"

you build your schedule once...

• the same schedule used with `repeat` will repeat the effect if it succeeds
• the same schedule used with `retry` will retry the effect in case of failure

&gt; How does it determine failure with the effect?
I believe is handled by exceptions, so if the effect you run throws, then it’ll be retried

That makes sense thank you.

I see my fail was more to do with KotlinScript and Intelij than Arrow
