Core_kernel.Substring
A substring is a contiguous set of characters within a string. Creating a substring does not copy. Therefore modifying the string also modifies the substring.
module type S = Substring_intf.S
include Container.S0 with type t := t with type elt := Base.Char.t
val mem : t -> Base.Char.t -> bool
Checks whether the provided element is there, using equality on elt
s.
val length : t -> int
val is_empty : t -> bool
val iter : t -> f:(Base.Char.t -> unit) -> unit
iter
must allow exceptions raised in f
to escape, terminating the iteration cleanly. The same holds for all functions below taking an f
.
val fold : t -> init:'accum -> f:('accum -> Base.Char.t -> 'accum) -> 'accum
fold t ~init ~f
returns f (... f (f (f init e1) e2) e3 ...) en
, where e1..en
are the elements of t
.
val fold_result : t -> init:'accum -> f:('accum -> Base.Char.t -> ('accum, 'e) Base.Result.t) -> ('accum, 'e) Base.Result.t
fold_result t ~init ~f
is a short-circuiting version of fold
that runs in the Result
monad. If f
returns an Error _
, that value is returned without any additional invocations of f
.
val fold_until : t -> init:'accum -> f:('accum -> Base.Char.t -> ('accum, 'final) Base__Container_intf.Export.Continue_or_stop.t) ->
finish:('accum -> 'final) -> 'final
fold_until t ~init ~f ~finish
is a short-circuiting version of fold
. If f
returns Stop _
the computation ceases and results in that value. If f
returns Continue _
, the fold will proceed. If f
never returns Stop _
, the final result is computed by finish
.
Example:
type maybe_negative =
| Found_negative of int
| All_nonnegative of { sum : int }
(** [first_neg_or_sum list] returns the first negative number in [list], if any,
otherwise returns the sum of the list. *)
let first_neg_or_sum =
List.fold_until ~init:0
~f:(fun sum x ->
if x < 0
then Stop (Found_negative x)
else Continue (sum + x))
~finish:(fun sum -> All_nonnegative { sum })
;;
let x = first_neg_or_sum [1; 2; 3; 4; 5]
val x : maybe_negative = All_nonnegative {sum = 15}
let y = first_neg_or_sum [1; 2; -3; 4; 5]
val y : maybe_negative = Found_negative -3
val exists : t -> f:(Base.Char.t -> bool) -> bool
Returns true
if and only if there exists an element for which the provided function evaluates to true
. This is a short-circuiting operation.
val for_all : t -> f:(Base.Char.t -> bool) -> bool
Returns true
if and only if the provided function evaluates to true
for all elements. This is a short-circuiting operation.
val count : t -> f:(Base.Char.t -> bool) -> int
Returns the number of elements for which the provided function evaluates to true.
val sum : (module Base__Container_intf.Summable with type t = 'sum) -> t -> f:(Base.Char.t -> 'sum) -> 'sum
Returns the sum of f i
for all i
in the container.
val find : t -> f:(Base.Char.t -> bool) -> Base.Char.t option
Returns as an option
the first element for which f
evaluates to true.
val find_map : t -> f:(Base.Char.t -> 'a option) -> 'a option
Returns the first evaluation of f
that returns Some
, and returns None
if there is no such element.
val to_list : t -> Base.Char.t list
val to_array : t -> Base.Char.t array
val min_elt : t -> compare:(Base.Char.t -> Base.Char.t -> int) -> Base.Char.t option
Returns a min (resp. max) element from the collection using the provided compare
function. In case of a tie, the first element encountered while traversing the collection is returned. The implementation uses fold
so it has the same complexity as fold
. Returns None
iff the collection is empty.
val max_elt : t -> compare:(Base.Char.t -> Base.Char.t -> int) -> Base.Char.t option
val pos : t -> Base.Int.t
pos
refers to the position in the base string, not any other substring that this substring was generated from.
val get : t -> Base.Int.t -> Base.Char.t
Per String.get
and Bigstring.get
, this raises an exception if the index is out of bounds.
val create : ?pos:Base.Int.t -> ?len:Base.Int.t -> base -> t
create ?pos ?len base
creates a substring of the base sequence of length len
starting at position pos
, i.e.,
base.[pos], base.[pos + 1], ... base.[pos + len - 1]
An exception is raised if any of those indices into base
is invalid.
It does not copy the characters, so mutating base
mutates t
and vice versa.
val sub : ?pos:Base.Int.t -> ?len:Base.Int.t -> t -> t
For copying characters from a substring to and from both strings and substrings.
val blit_to_string : t -> dst:Base.Bytes.t -> dst_pos:Base.Int.t -> Base.Unit.t
val blit_to_bytes : t -> dst:Base.Bytes.t -> dst_pos:Base.Int.t -> Base.Unit.t
val blit_to_bigstring : t -> dst:Bigstring.t -> dst_pos:Base.Int.t -> Base.Unit.t
val blit_from_string : t -> src:Base.String.t -> src_pos:Base.Int.t -> len:Base.Int.t -> Base.Unit.t
val blit_from_bigstring : t -> src:Bigstring.t -> src_pos:Base.Int.t -> len:Base.Int.t -> Base.Unit.t
These functions always copy.
val concat : t Base.List.t -> t
val concat_string : t Base.List.t -> Base.String.t
val concat_bigstring : t Base.List.t -> Bigstring.t
These functions always copy.
val to_string : t -> Base.String.t
val to_bigstring : t -> Bigstring.t
These functions always copy. Use create
if you want sharing.
val of_string : Base.String.t -> t
val of_bigstring : Bigstring.t -> t
The result of these functions share data with their input, but don't mutate the underlying string.
val drop_prefix : t -> Base.Int.t -> t
val drop_suffix : t -> Base.Int.t -> t
val prefix : t -> Base.Int.t -> t
val suffix : t -> Base.Int.t -> t
