ByteStr in std::bstr - Rust (original) (raw)


#[repr(transparent)]

pub struct ByteStr(pub [u8]);

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (bstr #134915)

Expand description

A wrapper for &[u8] representing a human-readable string that’s conventionally, but not always, UTF-8.

Unlike &str, this type permits non-UTF-8 contents, making it suitable for user input, non-native filenames (as Path only supports native filenames), and other applications that need to round-trip whatever data the user provides.

For an owned, growable byte string buffer, useByteString.

ByteStr implements Deref to [u8], so all methods available on [u8] are available onByteStr.

§Representation

A &ByteStr has the same representation as a &str. That is, a &ByteStr is a wide pointer which includes a pointer to some bytes and a length.

§Trait implementations

The ByteStr type has a number of trait implementations, and in particular, defines equality and comparisons between &ByteStr, &str, and &[u8], for convenience.

The Debug implementation for ByteStr shows its bytes as a normal string, with invalid UTF-8 presented as hex escape sequences.

The Display implementation behaves as if the ByteStr were first lossily converted to astr, with invalid UTF-8 presented as the Unicode replacement character: �

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (bstr #134915)

Creates a ByteStr slice from anything that can be converted to a byte slice.

This is a zero-cost conversion.

§Example

You can create a ByteStr from a byte array, a byte slice or a string slice:

let a = ByteStr::new(b"abc");
let b = ByteStr::new(&b"abc"[..]);
let c = ByteStr::new("abc");

assert_eq!(a, b);
assert_eq!(a, c);

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (maybe_uninit_write_slice #79995)

Copies the elements from src to self, returning a mutable reference to the now initialized contents of self.

If T does not implement Copy, use write_clone_of_slice instead.

This is similar to slice::copy_from_slice.

§Panics

This function will panic if the two slices have different lengths.

§Examples

#![feature(maybe_uninit_write_slice)]
use std::mem::MaybeUninit;

let mut dst = [MaybeUninit::uninit(); 32];
let src = [0; 32];

let init = dst.write_copy_of_slice(&src);

assert_eq!(init, src);

#![feature(maybe_uninit_write_slice)]

let mut vec = Vec::with_capacity(32);
let src = [0; 16];

vec.spare_capacity_mut()[..src.len()].write_copy_of_slice(&src);

// SAFETY: we have just copied all the elements of len into the spare capacity
// the first src.len() elements of the vec are valid now.
unsafe {
    vec.set_len(src.len());
}

assert_eq!(vec, src);

Source

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (maybe_uninit_write_slice #79995)

Clones the elements from src to self, returning a mutable reference to the now initialized contents of self. Any already initialized elements will not be dropped.

If T implements Copy, use write_copy_of_slice instead.

This is similar to slice::clone_from_slice but does not drop existing elements.

§Panics

This function will panic if the two slices have different lengths, or if the implementation of Clone panics.

If there is a panic, the already cloned elements will be dropped.

§Examples

#![feature(maybe_uninit_write_slice)]
use std::mem::MaybeUninit;

let mut dst = [const { MaybeUninit::uninit() }; 5];
let src = ["wibbly", "wobbly", "timey", "wimey", "stuff"].map(|s| s.to_string());

let init = dst.write_clone_of_slice(&src);

assert_eq!(init, src);

#![feature(maybe_uninit_write_slice)]

let mut vec = Vec::with_capacity(32);
let src = ["rust", "is", "a", "pretty", "cool", "language"].map(|s| s.to_string());

vec.spare_capacity_mut()[..src.len()].write_clone_of_slice(&src);

// SAFETY: we have just cloned all the elements of len into the spare capacity
// the first src.len() elements of the vec are valid now.
unsafe {
    vec.set_len(src.len());
}

assert_eq!(vec, src);

Returns the contents of this MaybeUninit as a slice of potentially uninitialized bytes.

Note that even if the contents of a MaybeUninit have been initialized, the value may still contain padding bytes which are left uninitialized.

use std::mem::MaybeUninit;

let uninit = [MaybeUninit::new(0x1234u16), MaybeUninit::new(0x5678u16)];
let uninit_bytes = uninit.as_bytes();
let bytes = unsafe { uninit_bytes.assume_init_ref() };
let val1 = u16::from_ne_bytes(bytes[0..2].try_into().unwrap());
let val2 = u16::from_ne_bytes(bytes[2..4].try_into().unwrap());
assert_eq!(&[val1, val2], &[0x1234u16, 0x5678u16]);

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (maybe_uninit_slice #63569)

Drops the contained values in place.

§Safety

It is up to the caller to guarantee that every MaybeUninit<T> in the slice really is in an initialized state. Calling this when the content is not yet fully initialized causes undefined behavior.

On top of that, all additional invariants of the type T must be satisfied, as the Drop implementation of T (or its members) may rely on this. For example, setting a Vec<T> to an invalid but non-null address makes it initialized (under the current implementation; this does not constitute a stable guarantee), because the only requirement the compiler knows about it is that the data pointer must be non-null. Dropping such a Vec<T> however will cause undefined behaviour.

1.0.0 · Source

Returns a raw pointer to the slice’s buffer.

The caller must ensure that the slice outlives the pointer this function returns, or else it will end up dangling.

The caller must also ensure that the memory the pointer (non-transitively) points to is never written to (except inside an UnsafeCell) using this pointer or any pointer derived from it. If you need to mutate the contents of the slice, use as_mut_ptr.

Modifying the container referenced by this slice may cause its buffer to be reallocated, which would also make any pointers to it invalid.

let x = &[1, 2, 4];
let x_ptr = x.as_ptr();

1.48.0 · Source

Returns the two raw pointers spanning the slice.

The returned range is half-open, which means that the end pointer points one past the last element of the slice. This way, an empty slice is represented by two equal pointers, and the difference between the two pointers represents the size of the slice.

See as_ptr for warnings on using these pointers. The end pointer requires extra caution, as it does not point to a valid element in the slice.

This function is useful for interacting with foreign interfaces which use two pointers to refer to a range of elements in memory, as is common in C++.

It can also be useful to check if a pointer to an element refers to an element of this slice:

let a = [1, 2, 3];
let x = &a[1] as *const _;
let y = &5 as *const _;

assert!(a.as_ptr_range().contains(&x));
assert!(!a.as_ptr_range().contains(&y));

1.0.0 · Source

Returns an iterator over all contiguous windows of lengthsize. The windows overlap. If the slice is shorter thansize, the iterator returns no values.

§Panics

Panics if size is zero.

§Examples

let slice = ['l', 'o', 'r', 'e', 'm'];
let mut iter = slice.windows(3);
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &['l', 'o', 'r']);
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &['o', 'r', 'e']);
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &['r', 'e', 'm']);
assert!(iter.next().is_none());

If the slice is shorter than size:

let slice = ['f', 'o', 'o'];
let mut iter = slice.windows(4);
assert!(iter.next().is_none());

Because the Iterator trait cannot represent the required lifetimes, there is no windows_mut analog to windows;[0,1,2].windows_mut(2).collect() would violate the rules of references(though a LendingIterator analog is possible). You can sometimes useCell::as_slice_of_cells in conjunction with windows instead:

use std::cell::Cell;

let mut array = ['R', 'u', 's', 't', ' ', '2', '0', '1', '5'];
let slice = &mut array[..];
let slice_of_cells: &[Cell<char>] = Cell::from_mut(slice).as_slice_of_cells();
for w in slice_of_cells.windows(3) {
    Cell::swap(&w[0], &w[2]);
}
assert_eq!(array, ['s', 't', ' ', '2', '0', '1', '5', 'u', 'R']);

Returns an iterator over chunk_size elements of the slice at a time, starting at the beginning of the slice.

The chunks are slices and do not overlap. If chunk_size does not divide the length of the slice, then the last chunk will not have length chunk_size.

See chunks_exact for a variant of this iterator that returns chunks of always exactlychunk_size elements, and rchunks for the same iterator but starting at the end of the slice.

§Panics

Panics if chunk_size is zero.

§Examples

let slice = ['l', 'o', 'r', 'e', 'm'];
let mut iter = slice.chunks(2);
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &['l', 'o']);
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &['r', 'e']);
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &['m']);

Returns an iterator over chunk_size elements of the slice at a time, starting at the beginning of the slice.

The chunks are mutable slices, and do not overlap. If chunk_size does not divide the length of the slice, then the last chunk will not have length chunk_size.

See chunks_exact_mut for a variant of this iterator that returns chunks of always exactly chunk_size elements, and rchunks_mut for the same iterator but starting at the end of the slice.

§Panics

Panics if chunk_size is zero.

§Examples

let v = &mut [0, 0, 0, 0, 0];
let mut count = 1;

for chunk in v.chunks_mut(2) {
    for elem in chunk.iter_mut() {
        *elem += count;
    }
    count += 1;
}
assert_eq!(v, &[1, 1, 2, 2, 3]);

Returns an iterator over chunk_size elements of the slice at a time, starting at the beginning of the slice.

The chunks are slices and do not overlap. If chunk_size does not divide the length of the slice, then the last up to chunk_size-1 elements will be omitted and can be retrieved from the remainder function of the iterator.

Due to each chunk having exactly chunk_size elements, the compiler can often optimize the resulting code better than in the case of chunks.

See chunks for a variant of this iterator that also returns the remainder as a smaller chunk, and rchunks_exact for the same iterator but starting at the end of the slice.

§Panics

Panics if chunk_size is zero.

let slice = ['l', 'o', 'r', 'e', 'm'];
let mut iter = slice.chunks_exact(2);
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &['l', 'o']);

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (slice_as_chunks #74985)

Splits the slice into a slice of N-element arrays, assuming that there’s no remainder.

§Safety

This may only be called when

The slice splits exactly into N-element chunks (aka self.len() % N == 0).
N != 0.

§Examples

let chunks: &[[char; 1]] =
    // SAFETY: 1-element chunks never have remainder

    // SAFETY: The slice length (6) is a multiple of 3
    unsafe { slice.as_chunks_unchecked() };
assert_eq!(chunks, &[['l', 'o', 'r'], ['e', 'm', '!']]);

// These would be unsound:

Splits the slice into a slice of N-element arrays, starting at the beginning of the slice, and a remainder slice with length strictly less than N.

Returns true if the slice contains an element with the given value.

This operation is O(n).

Note that if you have a sorted slice, binary_search may be faster.

§Examples

let v = [10, 40, 30];
assert!(v.contains(&30));
assert!(!v.contains(&50));

If you do not have a &T, but some other value that you can compare with one (for example, String implements PartialEq<str>), you can use iter().any:

let v = [String::from("hello"), String::from("world")]; // slice of `String`
assert!(v.iter().any(|e| e == "hello")); // search with `&str`
assert!(!v.iter().any(|e| e == "hi"));

Binary searches this slice for a given element. If the slice is not sorted, the returned result is unspecified and meaningless.

If the value is found then Result::Ok is returned, containing the index of the matching element. If there are multiple matches, then any one of the matches could be returned. The index is chosen deterministically, but is subject to change in future versions of Rust. If the value is not found then Result::Err is returned, containing the index where a matching element could be inserted while maintaining sorted order.

§Examples

Looks up a series of four elements. The first is found, with a uniquely determined position; the second and third are not found; the fourth could match any position in [1, 4].

let s = [0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55];

assert_eq!(s.binary_search(&13),  Ok(9));
assert_eq!(s.binary_search(&4),   Err(7));
assert_eq!(s.binary_search(&100), Err(13));
let r = s.binary_search(&1);
assert!(match r { Ok(1..=4) => true, _ => false, });

If you want to find that whole range of matching items, rather than an arbitrary matching one, that can be done using partition_point:

let s = [0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55];

let low = s.partition_point(|x| x < &1);
assert_eq!(low, 1);
let high = s.partition_point(|x| x <= &1);
assert_eq!(high, 5);
let r = s.binary_search(&1);
assert!((low..high).contains(&r.unwrap()));

assert!(s[..low].iter().all(|&x| x < 1));
assert!(s[low..high].iter().all(|&x| x == 1));
assert!(s[high..].iter().all(|&x| x > 1));

// For something not found, the "range" of equal items is empty
assert_eq!(s.partition_point(|x| x < &11), 9);
assert_eq!(s.partition_point(|x| x <= &11), 9);
assert_eq!(s.binary_search(&11), Err(9));

If you want to insert an item to a sorted vector, while maintaining sort order, consider using partition_point:

let mut s = vec![0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55];
let num = 42;
let idx = s.partition_point(|&x| x <= num);
// If `num` is unique, `s.partition_point(|&x| x < num)` (with `<`) is equivalent to
// `s.binary_search(&num).unwrap_or_else(|x| x)`, but using `<=` will allow `insert`
// to shift less elements.
s.insert(idx, num);
assert_eq!(s, [0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 42, 55]);

The comparator function should return an order code that indicates whether its argument is Less, Equal or Greater the desired target. If the slice is not sorted or if the comparator function does not implement an order consistent with the sort order of the underlying slice, the returned result is unspecified and meaningless.

§Examples

Binary searches this slice with a key extraction function.

Assumes that the slice is sorted by the key, for instance withsort_by_key using the same key extraction function. If the slice is not sorted by the key, the returned result is unspecified and meaningless.

         (1, 2), (2, 3), (4, 5), (5, 8), (3, 13),

1.20.0 · Source

Sorts the slice without preserving the initial order of equal elements.

This sort is unstable (i.e., may reorder equal elements), in-place (i.e., does not allocate), and O(n * log(n)) worst-case.

If the implementation of Ord for T does not implement a total order the resulting order of elements in the slice is unspecified. All original elements will remain in the slice and any possible modifications via interior mutability are observed in the input. Same is true if the implementation of Ord for T panics.

Sorting types that only implement PartialOrd such as f32 and f64 require additional precautions. For example, f32::NAN != f32::NAN, which doesn’t fulfill the reflexivity requirement of Ord. By using an alternative comparison function withslice::sort_unstable_by such as f32::total_cmp or f64::total_cmp that defines atotal order users can sort slices containing floating-point values. Alternatively, if all values in the slice are guaranteed to be in a subset for which PartialOrd::partial_cmpforms a total order, it’s possible to sort the slice with sort_unstable_by(|a, b| a.partial_cmp(b).unwrap()).

§Current implementation

The current implementation is based on ipnsort by Lukas Bergdoll and Orson Peters, which combines the fast average case of quicksort with the fast worst case of heapsort, achieving linear time on fully sorted and reversed inputs. On inputs with k distinct elements, the expected time to sort the data is O(n * log(k)).

It is typically faster than stable sorting, except in a few special cases, e.g., when the slice is partially sorted.

§Panics

May panic if the implementation of Ord for T does not implement a total order.

§Examples

let mut v = [4, -5, 1, -3, 2];

v.sort_unstable();
assert_eq!(v, [-5, -3, 1, 2, 4]);

Reorders the slice such that the element at index is at a sort-order position. All elements before index will be <= to this value, and all elements after will be >= to it.

This reordering is unstable (i.e. any element that compares equal to the nth element may end up at that position), in-place (i.e. does not allocate), and runs in O(n) time. This function is also known as “kth element” in other libraries.

Returns a triple that partitions the reordered slice:

The unsorted subslice before index, whose elements all satisfy x <= self[index].
The element at index.
The unsorted subslice after index, whose elements all satisfy x >= self[index].

§Current implementation

Cloning two elements from a slice into another:

Rust enforces that there can only be one mutable reference with no immutable references to a particular piece of data in a particular scope. Because of this, attempting to use clone_from_slice on a single slice will result in a compile failure:

Rust enforces that there can only be one mutable reference with no immutable references to a particular piece of data in a particular scope. Because of this, attempting to use copy_from_slice on a single slice will result in a compile failure:

ⓘ

let mut slice = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

slice[..2].copy_from_slice(&slice[3..]); // compile fail!

To work around this, we can use split_at_mut to create two distinct sub-slices from a slice:

let mut slice = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

{
    let (left, right) = slice.split_at_mut(2);
    left.copy_from_slice(&right[1..]);
}

assert_eq!(slice, [4, 5, 3, 4, 5]);

1.37.0 · Source

Copies elements from one part of the slice to another part of itself, using a memmove.

src is the range within self to copy from. dest is the starting index of the range within self to copy to, which will have the same length as src. The two ranges may overlap. The ends of the two ranges must be less than or equal to self.len().

§Panics

This function will panic if either range exceeds the end of the slice, or if the end of src is before the start.

§Examples

Copying four bytes within a slice:

let mut bytes = *b"Hello, World!";

bytes.copy_within(1..5, 8);

assert_eq!(&bytes, b"Hello, Wello!");

1.27.0 · Source

Swaps all elements in self with those in other.

The length of other must be the same as self.

§Panics

This function will panic if the two slices have different lengths.

§Example

Swapping two elements across slices:

let mut slice1 = [0, 0];
let mut slice2 = [1, 2, 3, 4];

slice1.swap_with_slice(&mut slice2[2..]);

assert_eq!(slice1, [3, 4]);
assert_eq!(slice2, [1, 2, 0, 0]);

Rust enforces that there can only be one mutable reference to a particular piece of data in a particular scope. Because of this, attempting to use swap_with_slice on a single slice will result in a compile failure:

ⓘ

let mut slice = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

    let (left, right) = slice.split_at_mut(2);
    left.swap_with_slice(&mut right[1..]);
}

assert_eq!(slice, [4, 5, 3, 1, 2]);

Transmutes the slice to a slice of another type, ensuring alignment of the types is maintained.

This method splits the slice into three distinct slices: prefix, correctly aligned middle slice of a new type, and the suffix slice. The middle part will be as big as possible under the given alignment constraint and element size.

This method has no purpose when either input element T or output element U are zero-sized and will return the original slice without splitting anything.

§Safety

This method is essentially a transmute with respect to the elements in the returned middle slice, so all the usual caveats pertaining to transmute::<T, U> also apply here.

§Examples

Basic usage:

unsafe {
    let bytes: [u8; 7] = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];
    let (prefix, shorts, suffix) = bytes.align_to::<u16>();

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (portable_simd #86656)

Splits a slice into a prefix, a middle of aligned SIMD types, and a suffix.

This is a safe wrapper around slice::align_to, so inherits the same guarantees as that method.

§Panics

This will panic if the size of the SIMD type is different fromLANES times that of the scalar.

At the time of writing, the trait restrictions on Simd<T, LANES> keeps that from ever happening, as only power-of-two numbers of lanes are supported. It’s possible that, in the future, those restrictions might be lifted in a way that would make it possible to see panics from this method for something like LANES == 3.

let short = &[1, 2, 3];
let (prefix, middle, suffix) = short.as_simd::<4>();
assert_eq!(middle, []); // Not enough elements for anything in the middle

// They might be split in any possible way between prefix and suffix
let it = prefix.iter().chain(suffix).copied();
assert_eq!(it.collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec![1, 2, 3]);

Checks if the elements of this slice are sorted.

That is, for each element a and its following element b, a <= b must hold. If the slice yields exactly zero or one element, true is returned.

Note that if Self::Item is only PartialOrd, but not Ord, the above definition implies that this function returns false if any two consecutive items are not comparable.

§Examples

let empty: [i32; 0] = [];

assert!([1, 2, 2, 9].is_sorted());
assert!(![1, 3, 2, 4].is_sorted());
assert!([0].is_sorted());

Checks if the elements of this slice are sorted using the given comparator function.

Instead of using PartialOrd::partial_cmp, this function uses the given comparefunction to determine whether two elements are to be considered in sorted order.

assert!(![1, 2, 2, 9].is_sorted_by(|a, b| a < b));

assert!([0].is_sorted_by(|a, b| true));
assert!([0].is_sorted_by(|a, b| false));

Checks if the elements of this slice are sorted using the given key extraction function.

Instead of comparing the slice’s elements directly, this function compares the keys of the elements, as determined by f. Apart from that, it’s equivalent to is_sorted; see its documentation for more information.

assert!(![-2i32, -1, 0, 3].is_sorted_by_key(|n| n.abs()));

1.52.0 · Source

Returns the index of the partition point according to the given predicate (the index of the first element of the second partition).

The slice is assumed to be partitioned according to the given predicate. This means that all elements for which the predicate returns true are at the start of the slice and all elements for which the predicate returns false are at the end. For example, [7, 15, 3, 5, 4, 12, 6] is partitioned under the predicate x % 2 != 0(all odd numbers are at the start, all even at the end).

If this slice is not partitioned, the returned result is unspecified and meaningless, as this method performs a kind of binary search.

§Examples

let v = [1, 2, 3, 3, 5, 6, 7];
let i = v.partition_point(|&x| x < 5);

assert_eq!(i, 4);
assert!(v[..i].iter().all(|&x| x < 5));
assert!(v[i..].iter().all(|&x| !(x < 5)));

If all elements of the slice match the predicate, including if the slice is empty, then the length of the slice will be returned:

let a = [2, 4, 8];
assert_eq!(a.partition_point(|x| x < &100), a.len());
let a: [i32; 0] = [];
assert_eq!(a.partition_point(|x| x < &100), 0);

If you want to insert an item to a sorted vector, while maintaining sort order:

let mut s = vec![0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55];
let num = 42;
let idx = s.partition_point(|&x| x <= num);
s.insert(idx, num);
assert_eq!(s, [0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 42, 55]);

Returns mutable references to many indices at once, without doing any checks.

An index can be either a usize, a Range or a RangeInclusive. Note that this method takes an array, so all indices must be of the same type. If passed an array of usizes this method gives back an array of mutable references to single elements, while if passed an array of ranges it gives back an array of mutable references to slices.

For a safe alternative see get_disjoint_mut.

1.0.0 · Source

Sorts the slice, preserving initial order of equal elements.

This sort is stable (i.e., does not reorder equal elements) and O(n * log(n)) worst-case.

If the implementation of Ord for T does not implement a total order, the function may panic; even if the function exits normally, the resulting order of elements in the slice is unspecified. See also the note on panicking below.

When applicable, unstable sorting is preferred because it is generally faster than stable sorting and it doesn’t allocate auxiliary memory. Seesort_unstable. The exception are partially sorted slices, which may be better served with slice::sort.

Sorting types that only implement PartialOrd such as f32 and f64 require additional precautions. For example, f32::NAN != f32::NAN, which doesn’t fulfill the reflexivity requirement of Ord. By using an alternative comparison function withslice::sort_by such as f32::total_cmp or f64::total_cmp that defines a total order users can sort slices containing floating-point values. Alternatively, if all values in the slice are guaranteed to be in a subset for which PartialOrd::partial_cmp forms atotal order, it’s possible to sort the slice with sort_by(|a, b| a.partial_cmp(b).unwrap()).

§Current implementation

The current implementation is based on driftsort by Orson Peters and Lukas Bergdoll, which combines the fast average case of quicksort with the fast worst case and partial run detection of mergesort, achieving linear time on fully sorted and reversed inputs. On inputs with k distinct elements, the expected time to sort the data is O(n * log(k)).

The auxiliary memory allocation behavior depends on the input length. Short slices are handled without allocation, medium sized slices allocate self.len() and beyond that it clamps at self.len() / 2.

§Panics

May panic if the implementation of Ord for T does not implement a total order, or if the Ord implementation itself panics.

All safe functions on slices preserve the invariant that even if the function panics, all original elements will remain in the slice and any possible modifications via interior mutability are observed in the input. This ensures that recovery code (for instance inside of a Drop or following a catch_unwind) will still have access to all the original elements. For instance, if the slice belongs to a Vec, the Vec::drop method will be able to dispose of all contained elements.

§Examples

let mut v = [4, -5, 1, -3, 2];

v.sort();
assert_eq!(v, [-5, -3, 1, 2, 4]);

Sorts the slice with a comparison function, preserving initial order of equal elements.

This sort is stable (i.e., does not reorder equal elements) and O(n * log(n)) worst-case.

If the comparison function compare does not implement a total order, the function may panic; even if the function exits normally, the resulting order of elements in the slice is unspecified. See also the note on panicking below.

§Current implementation

§Panics

May panic if compare does not implement a total order, or if compare itself panics.

§Examples

let mut v = [4, -5, 1, -3, 2];
v.sort_by(|a, b| a.cmp(b));
assert_eq!(v, [-5, -3, 1, 2, 4]);

// reverse sorting
v.sort_by(|a, b| b.cmp(a));
assert_eq!(v, [4, 2, 1, -3, -5]);

Sorts the slice with a key extraction function, preserving initial order of equal elements.

This sort is stable (i.e., does not reorder equal elements) and O(m * n * log(n)) worst-case, where the key function is O(m).

If the implementation of Ord for K does not implement a total order, the function may panic; even if the function exits normally, the resulting order of elements in the slice is unspecified. See also the note on panicking below.

§Current implementation

§Panics

May panic if the implementation of Ord for K does not implement a total order, or if the Ord implementation or the key-function f panics.

§Examples

let mut v = [4i32, -5, 1, -3, 2];

v.sort_by_key(|k| k.abs());
assert_eq!(v, [1, 2, -3, 4, -5]);

1.34.0 · Source

Sorts the slice with a key extraction function, preserving initial order of equal elements.

This sort is stable (i.e., does not reorder equal elements) and O(m * n + n * log(n)) worst-case, where the key function is O(m).

During sorting, the key function is called at most once per element, by using temporary storage to remember the results of key evaluation. The order of calls to the key function is unspecified and may change in future versions of the standard library.

For simple key functions (e.g., functions that are property accesses or basic operations),sort_by_key is likely to be faster.

§Current implementation

The current implementation is based on instruction-parallel-network sort by Lukas Bergdoll, which combines the fast average case of randomized quicksort with the fast worst case of heapsort, while achieving linear time on fully sorted and reversed inputs. And_O_(k * log(n)) where k is the number of distinct elements in the input. It leverages superscalar out-of-order execution capabilities commonly found in CPUs, to efficiently perform the operation.

In the worst case, the algorithm allocates temporary storage in a Vec<(K, usize)> the length of the slice.

§Panics

May panic if the implementation of Ord for K does not implement a total order, or if the Ord implementation panics.

§Examples

let mut v = [4i32, -5, 1, -3, 2, 10];

// Strings are sorted by lexicographical order.
v.sort_by_cached_key(|k| k.to_string());
assert_eq!(v, [-3, -5, 1, 10, 2, 4]);
