Module CCRAL

Random-Access Lists

This is an OCaml implementation of Okasaki's paper "Purely Functional Random Access Lists". It defines a list-like data structure with O(1) cons/tail operations, and O(log(n)) lookup/modification operations.

This module used to be part of containers.misc

status: stable

type +'a t

List containing elements of type 'a

val empty : 'a t

Empty list.

val is_empty : _ t ‑> bool

Check whether the list is empty.

val cons : 'a ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t

Add an element at the front of the list.

val return : 'a ‑> 'a t

Singleton.

val map : f:('a ‑> 'b) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b t

Map on elements.

val mapi : f:(int ‑> 'a ‑> 'b) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b t

Map with index.

val hd : 'a t ‑> 'a

First element of the list, or

val tl : 'a t ‑> 'a t

Remove the first element from the list, or

val front : 'a t ‑> ('a * 'a t) option

Remove and return the first element of the list.

val front_exn : 'a t ‑> 'a * 'a t

Unsafe version of front.

val length : 'a t ‑> int

Number of elements. Complexity O(ln n) where n=number of elements.

val get : 'a t ‑> int ‑> 'a option

get l i accesses the i-th element of the list. O(log(n)).

val get_exn : 'a t ‑> int ‑> 'a

Unsafe version of get.

val set : 'a t ‑> int ‑> 'a ‑> 'a t

set l i v sets the i-th element of the list to v. O(log(n)).

val remove : 'a t ‑> int ‑> 'a t

remove l i removes the i-th element of v.

val append : 'a t ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t
val filter : f:('a ‑> bool) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t
val filter_map : f:('a ‑> 'b option) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b t
val flat_map : ('a ‑> 'b t) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b t
val flatten : 'a t t ‑> 'a t
val app : ('a ‑> 'b) t ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b t
val take : int ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t
val take_while : f:('a ‑> bool) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t
val drop : int ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t
val drop_while : f:('a ‑> bool) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t
val take_drop : int ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t * 'a t

take_drop n l splits l into a, b such that length a = n if length l >= n, and such that append a b = l.

val iter : f:('a ‑> unit) ‑> 'a t ‑> unit

Iterate on the list's elements.

val iteri : f:(int ‑> 'a ‑> unit) ‑> 'a t ‑> unit
val fold : f:('b ‑> 'a ‑> 'b) ‑> x:'b ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b

Fold on the list's elements.

val fold_rev : f:('b ‑> 'a ‑> 'b) ‑> x:'b ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b

Fold on the list's elements, in reverse order (starting from the tail).

val rev_map : f:('a ‑> 'b) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b t

rev_map f l is the same as map f (rev l).

val rev : 'a t ‑> 'a t

Reverse the list.

val equal : eq:('a ‑> 'a ‑> bool) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t ‑> bool
val compare : cmp:('a ‑> 'a ‑> int) ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t ‑> int

Lexicographic comparison.

Utils

val make : int ‑> 'a ‑> 'a t
val repeat : int ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t

repeat n l is append l (append l ... l)n times.

val range : int ‑> int ‑> int t

range i j is i; i+1; ... ; j or j; j-1; ...; i.

Conversions

type 'a sequence = ('a ‑> unit) ‑> unit
type 'a gen = unit ‑> 'a option
val add_list : 'a t ‑> 'a list ‑> 'a t
val of_list : 'a list ‑> 'a t

Convert a list to a RAL. Caution: non tail-rec.

val to_list : 'a t ‑> 'a list
val of_list_map : f:('a ‑> 'b) ‑> 'a list ‑> 'b t

Combination of of_list and map.

val of_array : 'a array ‑> 'a t
val add_array : 'a t ‑> 'a array ‑> 'a t
val to_array : 'a t ‑> 'a array

More efficient than on usual lists.

val add_seq : 'a t ‑> 'a sequence ‑> 'a t
val of_seq : 'a sequence ‑> 'a t
val to_seq : 'a t ‑> 'a sequence
val add_gen : 'a t ‑> 'a gen ‑> 'a t
val of_gen : 'a gen ‑> 'a t
val to_gen : 'a t ‑> 'a gen

Infix

module Infix : sig ... end
include module type of Infix
val (@+) : 'a ‑> 'a t ‑> 'a t

Cons (alias to cons).

val (>>=) : 'a t ‑> ('a ‑> 'b t) ‑> 'b t

Alias to flat_map.

val (>|=) : 'a t ‑> ('a ‑> 'b) ‑> 'b t

Alias to map.

val (<*>) : ('a ‑> 'b) t ‑> 'a t ‑> 'b t
