Module SortArray.String

Specalized when key type is string, more efficient than the generic type

This is a specialized module for Belt_SortArray, the docs in that module also applies here, except the comparator is fixed and inlined

type element = string
val strictlySortedLength : element array -> int

The same as Belt_SortArray.strictlySortedLength except the comparator is fixed

  • returns

    +n means increasing order -n means negative order

val isSorted : element array -> bool

sorted xs return true if xs is in non strict increasing order

val stableSortInPlace : element array -> unit

The same as Belt_SortArray.stableSortInPlaceBy except the comparator is fixed

val stableSort : element array -> element array

The same as Belt_SortArray.stableSortBy except the comparator is fixed

val binarySearch : element array -> element -> int

If value is not found and value is less than one or more elements in array, the negative number returned is the bitwise complement of the index of the first element that is larger than value.

If value is not found and value is greater than all elements in array, the negative number returned is the bitwise complement of (the index of the last element plus 1)

for example, if key is smaller than all elements return -1 since lnot (-1) = 0 if key is larger than all elements return - (len + 1) since lnot (-(len+1)) = len
