Module Rope

A rope is a standard data structure that represents a single string as a tree of strings, allowing concatenation to do no work up front. See the README.md file for details and motivating examples.

type t
include Ppx_compare_lib.Equal.S with type t := t
val equal : t Base__Ppx_compare_lib.equal
include Ppx_quickcheck_runtime.Quickcheckable.S with type t := t
val quickcheck_generator : t Base_quickcheck.Generator.t
val quickcheck_observer : t Base_quickcheck.Observer.t
val quickcheck_shrinker : t Base_quickcheck.Shrinker.t
include Sexplib0.Sexpable.S with type t := t
val t_of_sexp : Sexplib0.Sexp.t -> t
val sexp_of_t : t -> Sexplib0.Sexp.t
val of_string : string -> t

Takes O(1) time. The string isn't copied, so don't mutate it.

val empty : t
val is_empty : t -> bool
val length : t -> int
val to_string : t -> string

Allocates a fresh string, so takes time proportional to the total size of the result.

val to_char_sequence : t -> char Core.Sequence.t

to_char_sequence can often produce characters incrementally, but in the worst case it takes time and memory proportional to the total length of the string to produce even a single character. (In such cases, it should still only take O(length) time to produce the rest of the string.)

val (^) : t -> t -> t

These take time proportional to the number of t's passed.

val concat : ?sep:t -> t list -> t
val concat_array : ?sep:t -> t array -> t
val add_to_buffer : t -> Core.Buffer.t -> unit

Appends the contents of the Rope at the end of a destination buffer.

val is_prefix : t -> prefix:t -> bool

is_prefix a ~prefix:b is a more efficient version of String.is_prefix (Rope.to_string a) ~prefix:(Rope.to_string b). However, the worst-case time complexity is still O(length t) instead of O(min(length t, length prefix)) as one could expect.
