Overview

A ‘Vector` is an ordered, integer-indexed collection of objects. Like Ruby’s ‘Array`, `Vector` indexing starts at zero and negative indexes count back from the end.

‘Vector` has a similar interface to `Array`. The main difference is methods that would destructively update an `Array` (such as #insert or #delete_at) instead return new `Vectors` and leave the existing one unchanged.

### Creating New Vectors

Hamster::Vector.new([:first, :second, :third])
Hamster::Vector[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

### Retrieving Items from Vectors

vector = Hamster::Vector[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

vector[0]      # => 1
vector[-1]     # => 5
vector[0,3]    # => Hamster::Vector[1, 2, 3]
vector[1..-1]  # => Hamster::Vector[2, 3, 4, 5]
vector.first   # => 1
vector.last    # => 5

### Creating Modified Vectors

vector.add(6)            # => Hamster::Vector[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
vector.insert(1, :a, :b) # => Hamster::Vector[1, :a, :b, 2, 3, 4, 5]
vector.delete_at(2)      # => Hamster::Vector[1, 2, 4, 5]
vector + [6, 7]          # => Hamster::Vector[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]

Instance Method Details

#*(times) ⇒ Vector

Repetition. Return a new ‘Vector` built by concatenating `times` copies of this one together.

Examples:

Hamster::Vector["A", "B"] * 3
# => Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "A", "B", "A", "B"]

Parameters:

  • times (Integer)

    The number of times to repeat the elements in this vector

  return self.class.empty if times == 0
  return self if times == 1
  result = (to_a * times)
  result.is_a?(Array) ? self.class.new(result) : result
end

#+(other) ⇒ Vector Also known as: concat

Return a new ‘Vector` built by concatenating this one with `other`. `other` can be any object which is convertible to an `Array` using `#to_a`.

Examples:

Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C"] + ["D", "E"]
# => Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C", "D", "E"]

Parameters:

  • other (Enumerable)

    The collection to concatenate onto this vector

# File 'lib/hamster/vector.rb', line 611

def +(other)
  other = other.to_a
  other = other.dup if other.frozen?
  replace_suffix(@size, other)
end

#add(item) ⇒ Vector Also known as: <<, push

Return a new ‘Vector` with `item` added after the last occupied position.

Examples:

Hamster::Vector[1, 2].add(99)  # => Hamster::Vector[1, 2, 99]

Parameters:

  • item (Object)

    The object to insert at the end of the vector

Returns:

135
136
# File 'lib/hamster/vector.rb', line 134

def add(item)
  update_root(@size, item)
end

#assoc(obj) ⇒ Object

Assumes all elements are nested, indexable collections, and searches through them, comparing ‘obj` with the first element of each nested collection. Return the first nested collection which matches, or `nil` if none is found. Behaviour is undefined when elements do not meet assumptions (i.e. are not indexable collections).

Examples:

v = Hamster::Vector[["A", 10], ["B", 20], ["C", 30]]
v.assoc("B")  # => ["B", 20]

Parameters:

  • obj (Object)

    The object to search for

Returns:

  • (Object)

def assoc(obj)
  each do |array|
    next if !array.respond_to?(:[])
    return array if obj == array[0]
  end
  nil
end

#bsearch {|element| ... } ⇒ Object

Finds a value from this ‘Vector` which meets the condition defined by the provided block, using a binary search. The vector must already be sorted with respect to the block. See Ruby’s ‘Array#bsearch` for details, behaviour is equivalent.

Examples:

v = Hamster::Vector[1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13]
# Block returns true/false for exact element match:
v.bsearch { |e| e > 4 }      # => 5
# Block returns number to match an element in 4 <= e <= 7:
v.bsearch { |e| 1 - e / 4 }  # => 7

Yields:

  • Once for at most ‘log n` elements, where `n` is the size of the vector. The exact elements and ordering are undefined.

Yield Parameters:

  • element (Object)

    element to be evaluated

Yield Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    ‘true` if this element matches the criteria, `false` otherwise.

  • (Integer)

    See ‘Array#bsearch` for details.

Returns:

  • (Object)

    The matched element, or ‘nil` if none found.

Raises:

  • TypeError if the block returns a non-numeric, non-boolean, non-nil value.

#combination(n) ⇒ self, Enumerator

When invoked with a block, yields all combinations of length ‘n` of items from the `Vector`, and then returns `self`. There is no guarantee about which order the combinations will be yielded.

If no block is given, an ‘Enumerator` is returned instead.

v = Hamster::Vector[5, 6, 7, 8]
v.combination(3) { |c| puts "Combination: #{c}" }

Combination: [5, 6, 7]
Combination: [5, 6, 8]
Combination: [5, 7, 8]
Combination: [6, 7, 8]
#=> Hamster::Vector[5, 6, 7, 8]

#flatten(level = -1)) ⇒ Vector

Return a new ‘Vector` with all nested vectors and arrays recursively “flattened out”. That is, their elements inserted into the new `Vector` in the place where the nested array/vector originally was. If an optional `level` argument is provided, the flattening will only be done recursively that number of times. A `level` of 0 means not to flatten at all, 1 means to only flatten nested arrays/vectors which are directly contained within this `Vector`.

Examples:

v = Hamster::Vector["A", Hamster::Vector["B", "C", Hamster::Vector["D"]]]
v.flatten(1)
# => Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C", Hamster::Vector["D"]]
v.flatten
# => Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C", "D"]

#sort_by {|element| ... } ⇒ Vector

Return a new ‘Vector` with the same items, but sorted. The sort order is determined by mapping the items through the given block to obtain sort keys, and then sorting the keys according to their natural sort order (`#<=>`).

Examples:

Hamster::Vector["Elephant", "Dog", "Lion"].sort_by { |e| e.size }
# => Hamster::Vector["Dog", "Lion", "Elephant"]

Yields:

  • (element)

    Once for each element.

Yield Returns:

  • a sort key object for the yielded element.

#take(n) ⇒ Vector

Return only the first ‘n` elements in a new `Vector`.

Examples:

Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F"].take(4)
# => Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C", "D"]

Parameters:

  • n (Integer)

    The number of elements to retain

end

#take_whileVector, Enumerator

Gather elements up to, but not including, the first element for which the block returns ‘nil` or `false`, and return them in a new `Vector`. If no block is given, an `Enumerator` is returned instead.

Examples:

Hamster::Vector[1, 3, 5, 7, 6, 4, 2].take_while { |e| e < 5 }
# => Hamster::Vector[1, 3]

Returns:

def take_while
  return enum_for(:take_while) if not block_given?
  self.class.new(super)
end

#to_aArray Also known as: to_ary

Return an ‘Array` with the same elements, in the same order. The returned `Array` may or may not be frozen.

Returns:

  • (Array)

def to_a
  if @levels == 0
    # When initializing a Vector with 32 or less items, we always make
    # sure @root is frozen, so we can return it directly here
    @root
  else
    flatten_node(@root, @levels * BITS_PER_LEVEL, [])
  end
end

#transposeVector

Assume all elements are vectors or arrays and transpose the rows and columns. In other words, take the first element of each nested vector/array and gather them together into a new ‘Vector`. Do likewise for the second, third, and so on down to the end of each nested vector/array. Gather all the resulting `Vectors` into a new `Vector` and return it.

This operation is closely related to #zip. The result is almost the same as calling #zip on the first nested vector/array with the others supplied as arguments.

Examples:

Hamster::Vector[["A", 10], ["B", 20], ["C", 30]].transpose
# => Hamster::Vector[Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C"], Hamster::Vector[10, 20, 30]]

Returns:

Raises:

  • (IndexError)

    if elements are not of the same size.

  • (TypeError)

    if an element can not be implicitly converted to an array (using ‘#to_ary`)

end

#uniq(&block) ⇒ Vector

Return a new ‘Vector` with no duplicate elements, as determined by `#hash` and `#eql?`. For each group of equivalent elements, only the first will be retained.

Examples:

Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C", "B"].uniq      # => Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C"]
Hamster::Vector["a", "A", "b"].uniq(&:upcase) # => Hamster::Vector["a", "b"]

end

#unshift(object) ⇒ Vector

Return a new ‘Vector` with `object` inserted before the first element, moving the other elements upwards.

Examples:

Hamster::Vector["A", "B"].unshift("Z")
# => Hamster::Vector["Z", "A", "B"]

Parameters:

  • object (Object)

    The value to prepend

end

#values_at(*indices) ⇒ Vector

Return a new ‘Vector` with only the elements at the given `indices`, in the order specified by `indices`. If any of the `indices` do not exist, `nil`s will appear in their places.

Examples:

v = Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F"]
v.values_at(2, 4, 5)   # => Hamster::Vector["C", "E", "F"]

Parameters:

  • indices (Array)

    The indices to retrieve and gather into a new ‘Vector`

Returns:

def values_at(*indices)
  self.class.new(indices.map { |i| get(i) }.freeze)
end

#zip(*others) ⇒ Vector #zip(*others) {|pair| ... } ⇒ nil

Combine two vectors by “zipping” them together. ‘others` should be arrays and/or vectors. The corresponding elements from this `Vector` and each of `others` (that is, the elements with the same indices) will be gathered into arrays.

If ‘others` contains fewer elements than this vector, `nil` will be used for padding.

Examples:

v1 = Hamster::Vector["A", "B", "C"]
v2 = Hamster::Vector[1, 2]
v1.zip(v2)
# => Hamster::Vector[["A", 1], ["B", 2], ["C", nil]]

Overloads:

  • #zip(*others) ⇒ Vector

    Return a new vector containing the new arrays.

    Returns:

  • #zip(*others) {|pair| ... } ⇒ nil

    Yields:

    • (pair)

      once for each array

    Returns:

    • (nil)

Parameters:

  • others (Array)

    The arrays/vectors to zip together with this one
