class Deque(T)

Overview

A Deque ("double-ended queue") is a collection of objects of type T that behaves much like an Array.

Deque has a subset of Array's API. It performs better than an Array when there are frequent insertions or deletions of items near the beginning or the end.

The most typical use case of a Deque is a queue: use #push to add items to the end of the queue and #shift to get and remove the item at the beginning of the queue.

This Deque is implemented with a dynamic array used as a circular buffer.

Constructor Detail

def self.additive_identity : self #

Returns the additive identity of this type.

This is an empty deque.


[View source]
def self.new(size : Int, value : T) #

Creates a new Deque of the given size filled with the same value in each position.

Deque.new(3, 'a') # => Deque{'a', 'a', 'a'}

[View source]
def self.new(array : Array(T)) #

Creates a new Deque that copies its items from an Array.

Deque.new([1, 2, 3]) # => Deque{1, 2, 3}

[View source]
def self.new(initial_capacity : Int) #

Creates a new empty Deque backed by a buffer that is initially initial_capacity big.

The initial_capacity is useful to avoid unnecessary reallocations of the internal buffer in case of growth. If you have an estimate of the maximum number of elements a deque will hold, you should initialize it with that capacity for improved execution performance.

deq = Deque(Int32).new(5)
deq.size # => 0

[View source]
def self.new(pull : JSON::PullParser) #

[View source]
def self.new #

Creates a new empty Deque


[View source]
def self.new(size : Int, & : Int32 -> T) #

Creates a new Deque of the given size and invokes the block once for each index of the deque, assigning the block's value in that index.

Deque.new(3) { |i| (i + 1) ** 2 } # => Deque{1, 4, 9}

Insert a new item before the item at index. Items to the right of this one will have their indices incremented.

a = Deque{0, 1, 2}
a.insert(1, 7) # => Deque{0, 7, 1, 2}

def unsafe_fetch(index : Int) : T #
Description copied from module Indexable(T)

Returns the element at the given index, without doing any bounds check.

Indexable makes sure to invoke this method with index in 0...size, so converting negative indices to positive ones is not needed here.

Clients never invoke this method directly. Instead, they access elements with #[](index) and #[]?(index).

This method should only be directly invoked if you are absolutely sure the index is in bounds, to avoid a bounds check for a small boost of performance.


[View source]
def unsafe_put(index : Int, value : T) #
Description copied from module Indexable::Mutable(T)

Sets the element at the given index to value, without doing any bounds check.

Indexable::Mutable makes sure to invoke this method with index in 0...size, so converting negative indices to positive ones is not needed here.

Clients never invoke this method directly. Instead, they modify elements with #[]=(index, value).

This method should only be directly invoked if you are absolutely sure the index is in bounds, to avoid a bounds check for a small boost of performance.


[View source]
def unshift(value : T) : self #

Adds an item to the beginning of the deque.

a = Deque{1, 2}
a.unshift 0 # => Deque{0, 1, 2}
