Sorted vectors.

Repository

• SortedVec -- sorted from least to greatest, may contain duplicates
• SortedSet -- sorted from least to greatest, unique elements
• ReverseSortedVec -- sorted from greatest to least, may contain duplicates
• ReverseSortedSet -- sorted from greatest to least, unique elements

The partial module provides sorted vectors of types that only implement PartialOrd where comparison of incomparable elements results in runtime panic.

sorted_vec

Create and maintain collections of sorted elements.

Documentation

let mut v = SortedVec::new();
assert_eq!(v.insert (5), 0);
assert_eq!(v.insert (3), 0);
assert_eq!(v.insert (4), 1);
assert_eq!(v.insert (4), 1);
assert_eq!(v.len(), 4);
v.dedup();
assert_eq!(v.len(), 3);
assert_eq!(v.binary_search (&3), Ok (0));
assert_eq!(*SortedVec::from_unsorted (
  vec![5, -10, 99, -11, 2, 17, 10]),
  vec![-11, -10, 2, 5, 10, 17, 99]);

Also provides sorted set containers only containing unique elements.

serde support

serde de/serialization is an optional feature.

By default, deserializing an unsorted container is an error.

To sort on deserialization, tag the field with #[serde(deserialize_with = "SortedVec::deserialize_unsorted")]:

#[derive(Debug, Eq, Ord, PartialEq, PartialOrd, Deserialize, Serialize)]
pub struct Foo {
  #[serde(deserialize_with = "SortedVec::deserialize_unsorted")]
  pub v : SortedVec <u64>
}
