Sek

This OCaml library offers an efficient implementation of sequences.

This data structure supports all of the standard operations on stacks, queues, deques (e.g. push, pop at either end), catenable sequences (concat, split), and random access sequences (get, set).

Data is stored internally in chunks (fixed-capacity arrays), which is why this data structure is known as a chunk sequence.

This data structure comes in two flavors, namely an ephemeral (mutable) flavor and a persistent (immutable) flavor, and offers constant-time conversions between these flavors.

It is intended to achieve excellent time complexity and memory usage.

Documentation

The documentation of the latest released version is available online. Here are shortcuts to the ephemeral sequence API, the persistent sequence API, and the conversion functions.

The documentation is built locally by make doc and can be viewed via make view.

The file play.ml allows playing with the library in the OCaml toplevel loop.
