Patricia Tree API - Map2

include NODE with type _ key = key

Types

type _ key = key

The type of keys.

type ('key, 'map) value

The type of value, which depends on the type of the key and the type of the map.

type 'map t

The type of the map, which is parameterized by a type.

Constructors: build values

val empty : 'map t

The empty map

val leaf : 'key key -> ('key, 'map) value -> 'map t

A singleton leaf, similar to BASE_MAP.singleton

val branch : prefix:int -> branching_bit:int -> tree0:'map t -> tree1:'map t -> 'map t

A branch node. This shouldn't be called externally unless you know what you're doing! Doing so could easily break the data structure's invariants.

When called, it assumes that:

• Neither tree0 nor tree1 should be empty.
• branching_bit should have a single bit set
• prefix should be normalized (bits below branching_bit set to zero)
• All elements of tree0 should have their to_int start by prefix followed by 0 at position branching_bit).
• All elements of tree1 should have their to_int start by prefix followed by 0 at position branching_bit).

Destructors: access the value

type 'map view = private

1. | Empty : 'map view
   (*

   Can happen only at the toplevel: there is no empty interior node.

   *)
2. | Branch : {
   1. prefix : int;
   2. branching_bit : int;
   3. tree0 : 'map t;
   4. tree1 : 'map t;
   } -> 'map view
   (*

   Same constraints as branch:

   • branching_bit contains only one bit set; the corresponding mask is (branching_bit - 1).
   • prefix is normalized: the bits below the branching_bit are set to zero (i.e. prefix & (branching_bit - 1) = 0).
   • All elements of tree0 should have their to_int start by prefix followed by 0 at position branching_bit).
   • All elements of tree1 should have their to_int start by prefix followed by 0 at position branching_bit).

   *)
3. | Leaf : {
   1. key : 'key key;
   2. value : ('key, 'map) value;
   } -> 'map view
   (*

   A key -> value mapping.

   *)

This makes the map nodes accessible to the pattern matching algorithm; this corresponds 1:1 to the SimpleNode implementation. This just needs to be copy-and-pasted for every node type.

val is_empty : 'map t -> bool

Check if the map is empty. Should be constant time.

val view : 'a t -> 'a view

Convert the map to a view. Should be constant time.

val find : 'key key -> 'map t -> ('key, 'map) value

find key map returns the value associated with key in map if present.

• raises Not_found

  if key is absent from map

val find_opt : 'key key -> 'map t -> ('key, 'map) value option

Same as find, but returns None for Not_found
