About this egg

The cis library implements compact integer sets, represented as a list of integer intervals. The usual set operations are provided. The advantage compared to ordered lists is that when many elements are contiguous, the actual size of the data structure may be much smaller than the cardinality of the set being represented. Most set operations are linear w.r.t. the size, not the cardinality of the set.

Usage

(import cis)

Constants

empty :: CIS

The empty integer set.

Procedures

[procedure] cis? :: OBJECT -> BOOL

Returns #t if the given object is a compact integer set, #f otherwise.

[procedure] empty? :: CIS -> BOOL

Returns #t if the given integer set is empty, #f otherwise.

[procedure] subset? :: CIS * CIS -> BOOL

Returns #t if the first given integer set is a subset of the second given integer set, #f otherwise.

[procedure] cardinal :: CIS -> INTEGER

Returns the cardinality of the given set.

[procedure] in? :: INTEGER * CIS -> BOOL

Returns #t if the the given integer is contained in the given set, #f otherwise.

[procedure] singleton :: INTEGER -> CIS

Returns an integer set consisting of the given element.

[procedure] interval :: INTEGER * INTEGER -> CIS

Returns an integer set consisting of the given interval of elements.

[procedure] add :: INTEGER * CIS -> CIS

Adds the given element to the given set and returns the new set.

[procedure] remove :: INTEGER * CIS -> CIS

Removes the given element from the given set and returns the new set.

[procedure] shift :: INTEGER * CIS -> CIS

Adds the given integer to all elements in the set and returns the new set.

[procedure] union :: CIS * CIS -> CIS

Returns the union of the two sets.

[procedure] intersection :: CIS * CIS -> CIS

Returns the intersection fo the two sets.

[procedure] difference :: CIS * CIS -> CIS

Subtracts the elements of the second given set from the elements of the first given set, and returns the resulting set.

[procedure] get-min :: CIS -> INTEGER

Returns the minumum element of the set.

[procedure] get-max :: CIS -> INTEGER

Returns the maximum element of the set.

[procedure] foreach :: PROCEDURE * CIS -> VOID

Applies the given procedure to every element of the set.

[procedure] fold-left :: PROCEDURE * INIT * CIS -> VALUE

Left fold on the elements of the set.

[procedure] fold-right :: PROCEDURE * INIT * CIS -> VALUE

Right fold on the elements of the set.

[procedure] elements :: CIS -> LIST

Returns a list containing all elements of the given set.

Examples

 (define a (add 4 (add 1 (add 5 empty))))
 (define b (add 3 (add 2 (add 8 empty))))
 (elements a)
==> (5 4 1)
 (elements b)
==> (8 3 2)
 (elements (union a b))
==> (8 5 4 3 2 1)
