LinearAggregate S

aggcat.spad line 1698 [edit on github]

A linear aggregate is an aggregate whose elements are indexed by integers. Examples of linear aggregates are strings, lists, and arrays. Most of the exported operations for linear aggregates are non-destructive but are not always efficient for a particular aggregate. For example, concat of two lists needs only to copy its first argument, whereas concat of two arrays needs to copy both arguments. Most of the operations exported here apply to infinite objects (e.g. streams) as well to finite ones. If the aggregate is a finite aggregate then it has several additional exports such as reverse, sort, and so on.

concat: (%, %) -> %

concat(u, v) returns an aggregate consisting of the elements of u followed by the elements of v. Note: if w = concat(u, v) then w.i = u.i for i in indices u and w.(j + maxIndex u) = v.j for j in indices v.

concat: (%, S) -> %

concat(u, x) returns aggregate u with additional element x at the end. Note: for lists, concat(u, x) = concat(u, [x]).

concat: (S, %) -> %

concat(x, u) returns aggregate u with additional element x at the front. Note: for lists: concat(x, u) = concat([x], u).

concat: List % -> %

concat(u), where u is a list of aggregates [a, b, ..., c], returns a single aggregate consisting of the elements of a followed by those of b followed … by the elements of c. Note: concat([a, b, ..., c]) = concat(a, concat([b, ..., c])).

insert: (S, %, Integer) -> %

insert(x, u, i) returns a copy of u having x as its ith element. Note: insert(x, u, i) = concat(u(minIndex(u)..i-1), concat(x, u(i..))).

merge: (%, %) -> % if S has OrderedSet and % has finiteAggregate

merge(u, v) merges u and v in ascending order. Note: merge(u, v) = merge(<=, u, v).

merge: ((S, S) -> Boolean, %, %) -> % if % has finiteAggregate

merge(p, a, b) returns an aggregate c which merges a and b. The result is produced by examining each element x of a and y of b successively. If p(x, y) is true, then x is inserted into the result; otherwise y is inserted. If x is chosen, the next element of a is examined, and so on. When all the elements of one aggregate are examined, the remaining elements of the other are appended. For example, merge(<, [1, 3], [2, 7, 5]) returns [1, 2, 3, 7, 5].
