std/critbits (original) (raw)

Source Edit

This module implements a crit bit tree which is an efficient container for a sorted set of strings, or for a sorted mapping of strings. Based on the excellent paper by Adam Langley. (A crit bit tree is a form of radix tree or patricia trie.)

Example:

import std/critbits from std/sequtils import toSeq

var critbitAsSet: CritBitTree[void] = ["kitten", "puppy"].toCritBitTree doAssert critbitAsSet.len == 2 critbitAsSet.incl("") doAssert "" in critbitAsSet critbitAsSet.excl("") doAssert "" notin critbitAsSet doAssert toSeq(critbitAsSet.items) == @["kitten", "puppy"] let same = ["puppy", "kitten", "puppy"].toCritBitTree doAssert toSeq(same.keys) == toSeq(critbitAsSet.keys)

var critbitAsDict: CritBitTree[int] = {"key1": 42}.toCritBitTree doAssert critbitAsDict.len == 1 critbitAsDict["key2"] = 0 doAssert "key2" in critbitAsDict doAssert critbitAsDict["key2"] == 0 critbitAsDict.excl("key1") doAssert "key1" notin critbitAsDict doAssert toSeq(critbitAsDict.pairs) == @[("key2", 0)]

Types

CritBitTree[T] = object

The crit bit tree can either be used as a mapping from strings to some type T or as a set of strings if T is void.Source Edit

Procs

func $[T](c: CritBitTree[T]): string

Turns c into a string representation.

Example:

doAssert $CritBitTree[int].default == "{:}" doAssert $toCritBitTree({"key1": 1, "key2": 2}) == """{"key1": 1, "key2": 2}""" doAssert $CritBitTree[void].default == "{}" doAssert $toCritBitTree(["key1", "key2"]) == """{"key1", "key2"}"""

Source Edit

func [][T](c: CritBitTree[T]; key: string): lent T {.inline.}

Retrieves the value at c[key]. If key is not in t, the KeyError exception is raised. One can check with hasKey whether the key exists.

See also:

func [][T](c: var CritBitTree[T]; key: string): var T {.inline.}

Retrieves the value at c[key]. The value can be modified. If key is not in t, the KeyError exception is raised.

See also:

func commonPrefixLen[T](c: CritBitTree[T]): int {.inline.}

Returns the length of the longest common prefix of all keys in c. If c is empty, returns 0.

Example:

var c: CritBitTree[void] doAssert c.commonPrefixLen == 0 incl(c, "key1") doAssert c.commonPrefixLen == 4 incl(c, "key2") doAssert c.commonPrefixLen == 3

Source Edit

func contains[T](c: CritBitTree[T]; key: string): bool {.inline.}

Returns true if c contains the given key.

Example:

var c: CritBitTree[void] incl(c, "key") doAssert c.contains("key")

Source Edit

proc containsOrIncl(c: var CritBitTree[void]; key: string): bool {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}

Returns true if c contains the given key. If the key does not exist, it is inserted into c.

See also:

Example:

block: var c: CritBitTree[void] doAssert not c.containsOrIncl("key") doAssert c.contains("key") block: var c: CritBitTree[void] incl(c, "key") doAssert c.containsOrIncl("key")

Source Edit

proc containsOrIncl[T](c: var CritBitTree[T]; key: string; val: sink T): bool

Returns true if c contains the given key. If the key does not exist, c[key] = val is performed.

See also:

Example:

block: var c: CritBitTree[int] doAssert not c.containsOrIncl("key", 42) doAssert c.contains("key") block: var c: CritBitTree[int] incl(c, "key", 21) doAssert c.containsOrIncl("key", 42) doAssert c["key"] == 21

Source Edit

proc excl[T](c: var CritBitTree[T]; key: string)

Removes key (and its associated value) from the set c. If the key does not exist, nothing happens.

See also:

Example:

var c: CritBitTree[void] incl(c, "key") excl(c, "key") doAssert not c.contains("key")

Source Edit

proc inc(c: var CritBitTree[int]; key: string; val: int = 1) {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}

Increments c[key] by val.

Example:

var c: CritBitTree[int] c["key"] = 1 inc(c, "key") doAssert c["key"] == 2

Source Edit

proc incl(c: var CritBitTree[void]; key: string) {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}

Includes key in c.

See also:

Example:

var c: CritBitTree[void] incl(c, "key") doAssert c.hasKey("key")

Source Edit

proc incl[T](c: var CritBitTree[T]; key: string; val: sink T)

Inserts key with value val into c.

See also:

Example:

var c: CritBitTree[int] incl(c, "key", 42) doAssert c["key"] == 42

Source Edit

func len[T](c: CritBitTree[T]): int {.inline.}

Returns the number of elements in c in O(1).

Example:

let c = ["key1", "key2"].toCritBitTree doAssert c.len == 2

Source Edit

proc missingOrExcl[T](c: var CritBitTree[T]; key: string): bool

Returns true if c does not contain the given key. If the key does exist, c.excl(key) is performed.

See also:

Example:

block: var c: CritBitTree[void] doAssert c.missingOrExcl("key") block: var c: CritBitTree[void] incl(c, "key") doAssert not c.missingOrExcl("key") doAssert not c.contains("key")

Source Edit

proc toCritBitTree(items: sink openArray[string]): CritBitTree[void] {. ...raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}

Creates a new CritBitTree that contains the given items.

Example:

doAssert ["a", "b", "c"].toCritBitTree is CritBitTree[void]

Source Edit

proc toCritBitTree[T](pairs: sink openArray[(string, T)]): CritBitTree[T]

Creates a new CritBitTree that contains the given pairs.

Example:

doAssert {"a": "0", "b": "1", "c": "2"}.toCritBitTree is CritBitTree[string] doAssert {"a": 0, "b": 1, "c": 2}.toCritBitTree is CritBitTree[int]
