Module Total_map
Source
A map that includes an entry for every possible value of the key type.
This is intended to be used on 'key
types where there is a full enumeration of the type. In the common use case, 'key
will be a simple variant type with [@@deriving compare, enumerate]
. For example:
module Arrow_key = struct
module T = struct
type t =
| Up
| Down
| Left
| Right
[@@deriving sexp, bin_io, compare, enumerate]
end
include T
module Total_map = Total_map.Make (T)
end
In such a case, a t
is semantically equivalent to a pure function from 'key
to 'value
. The differences are that it is serializable and that mapping or changing a t
will produce a t
using the same amount of space as the original.
However, in theory you could also modify the comparison function and enumeration, so long as the enumeration contains at least one representative of each equivalence class determined by the comparison function.
Many of the functions below have types reflecting the fact that the maps are total (e.g., find
does not return an option). The fact that they won't raise exceptions relies on the enumeration passed to Make
being complete.
val fold2 :
('key, 'a, 'cmp, 'enum) t ->
('key, 'b, 'cmp, 'enum) t ->
init:'acc ->
f:(key:'key -> 'a -> 'b -> 'acc -> 'acc) ->
'acc
Folds over two maps side by side, like iter2
.
Sequence a total map of computations in order of their keys resulting in computation of the total map of results.
The only reason that the Applicative interface isn't included here is that we don't have an Applicative.S4
.
