Vectors sorting, searching, indexing, ranking, merging, reversing, intersecting, printing, ..
Indxvec
is lightweight and has no dependencies. The methods of all traits can be functionally chained to achieve numerous manipulations of Ranges
, Vec
s, and their indices, in compact form.
The facilities provided are:
to_plainstr()
pvec()
, wvec(&mut f)
here!()
for more informative errors reportingIt is highly recommended to read and run tests/tests.rs
to learn from examples of usage therein. Use a single thread to run them to keep the output in the right order. It is necessary to run the timing benchmark sorts()
on its own for meaningful results.

Sort Index - is a vec of subscripts to the data, such that the first subscript identifies the smallest item in the data, and so on (in ascending order). The data is unchanged. Suitable for bulky data that are not easily moved. It answers the question: 'what data item occupies a given sort position?'.
Subspace Index - lists the subscripts (dimensions) to be retained when projecting to a subspace.
Reversing an index - sort index can be reversed by generic reversal operation revs()
, or mutrevs()
. This has the effect of changing between ascending/descending sort orders without re-sorting or even reversing the (possibly bulky) actual data.
Rank Index - corresponds to the given data order, listing the sort positions (ranks) for the data items, e.g.the third entry in the rank index gives the rank of the third data item. Some statistical measures require ranks of data. It answers the question: 'what are the sort positions of the data items?'.
Inverting an index - sort index and rank index are mutually inverse. Thus they can be easily switched by invindex()
. This is usually the easiest way to obtain rank index. They will both be equal to 0..n
for data that is already in ascending order.
Complement of an index - beware that the standard reversal will not convert directly between ascending and descending ranks. This purpose is served by complindex()
. Alternatively, descending ranks can be reconstructed by applying invindex()
to a descending sort index.
Selecting - given a subspace index and some data vector, collects components of that vector corresponding to the dimensions present in the index and ignores the rest (i.e. it projects the data to the subspace defined by the index).
Unindexing - given an explicit sort index and some data, unindex()
will pick the data in the new order defined by the sort index. It can be used to efficiently transform lots of data vectors into the same (fixed) order. For example: Suppose we have vectors: keys
and data_1,..data_n
, not explicitly joined together in some common data structure. The sort index obtained by e.g.: let index = keys.hashsort_indexed();
can then be efficiently applied to sort the data vectors individually: index.unindex(data_n,true)
(false to obtain a descending order at no extra cost).
Is implemented for RangeInclusive<T>
, specifying the range of search. Its binary search methods are not restricted to explicit data of any particular type. Probing of data is done by the comparator closure cmpr
, which captures some data item from somewhere and a target and defines their comparison. Data subscripts are not limited to usize
. The comparator specified in the call can be easily logically reversed, e.g. |data_item,target| target.cmp(data_item)
. These methods will then work on data in implicit descending order.
/// Binary search algoritms implemented on RangeInclusive<T>.
/// Using a closure `cmpr` to sample and compare data to captured target.
pub trait Search<T> {
/// Unchecked Ok(first hit) or Err(insert order of a missing item).
fn binary_by(self, cmpr: impl FnMut(T) -> Ordering) -> Result <T,T>;
/// Unchecked first hit or insert order, and the final search range.
fn binary_any(&self, cmpr: impl FnMut(T) -> Ordering) -> (T, Range<T>);
/// General Binary Search, returns the range of all matching items
fn binary_all(&self, cmpr: impl FnMut(T)-> Ordering) -> Range<T>;
}
binary_by
Binary search within an inclusive range. When the target is missing, its insert position is returned as Err<T>
.
Same as std::slice::binary_search_by()
but is more general.
binary_any
finds and returns the first hit and its last enclosing range. The returned range is used by binary_all
to constrain its search for all matches. Also, binary_any
can be used on its own when any matching item will do. For example, to iteratively solve non-linear equations, using range values of f64
type (see tests/tests.rs
).
binary_all
Binary search that finds all the matches. This implementation is uniquely general. It is also very fast, especially over long ranges.
Searches within the given RangeInclusive<T>
(self). It can be used in functionally chained 'builder style APIs', that select the subrange closer bracketing the target.
The range values can be of any generic type T (satisfying the listed bounds), e.g. usize for indexing in-memory, u128 for searching whole disks or internet, f64 for solving equations...
Comparator closure cmpr
is comparing data against a target captured from its environment.
Using closures enables custom comparisons of user's own data types. Also, this code is agnostic about the type of the target (and of the data)!
When the target is in order before self.start, empty self.start..self.start
range is returned.
When the target is in order after self.end, self.end..self.end
is returned.
When the target is not found, then ip..ip
is returned, where ip
is its insert position.
Otherwise the range of all consecutive values PartiallyEqual
to the target is returned.
The first hit encountered will be anywhere within some unknown number of matching items. The algorithm then conducts two more binary searches in both directions away from the first hit. These secondary searches are applied only within the last (narrowest) range found during the main search. First non-matching items in both directions are found, giving the full enclosed matching range.
Indices
use indxvec::{Indices};
The methods of this trait are implemented for slices of subscripts, i.e. they take the type &[usize]
as input (self) and produce new index Vec<usize>
, new data vector Vec<T>
or Vec<f64>
, or other results, as appropriate. Please see the Glossary for descriptions of the indices and the operations on them.
pub trait Indices {
/// Indices::newindex(n) creates a new index without rePartialOrdering
fn newindex(n: usize) -> Vec<usize> {
Vec::from_iter(0..n)
}
/// Invert an index - turns a sort order into rank order and vice-versa
fn invindex(self) -> Vec<usize>;
/// complement of an index - reverses the ranking order
fn complindex(self) -> Vec<usize>;
/// Using a subspace index, projects `v`, into it.
fn select<T:Clone>(self, v: &[T]) -> Vec<T>;
/// Given a complete (sort) index, extracts indicated values from `v`
fn unindex<T:Clone>(self, v: &[T], ascending: bool) -> Vec<T>;
/// Correlation coefficient of two &[usize] slices.
/// Pearsons on raw data, Spearman's when applied to ranks.
fn ucorrelation(self, v: &[usize]) -> f64;
/// Potentially useful clone-recast of &[usize] to Vec<f64>
fn indx_to_f64(self) -> Vec<f64>;
}
use indxvec::Vecops;
The methods of this trait are applicable to all generic slices &[T]
(the data). Thus they will work on all Rust primitive numeric end types, such as f64. They can also work on slices holding any arbitrarily complex end type T
, as long as the often required traits, Ord
and/or Clone
, are implemented for T
. The methods are too numerous to list here, please see their declarations in lib.rs
and their source in vecops.rs
.
use indxvec::Mutops;
This trait contains mutable reverse and mutable sort methods. They all overwrite self
with their outputs. When we do not need to preserve the original order, this is often the most efficient way to sort. Non-destructive versions are implemented in trait Vecops
.
It is often useful to avoid trait constrains on the end-type being sorted, such as Ord
or Partial_Ord
. Such constraints are 'sticky' and have to be then applied everywhere.
Our new mutisort
(insert log sort) sidesteps these problems by taking a custom closure comparator. Its complexity is the best achievable for comparator sorts. It is almost as fast as the std provided sort, which eventually beats it only because it can take advantage of unstable Rust mem moves. Tested on floats, mutisort
is actually faster up to the data length of about 4500. Additionally, mutisort
allows sorting just within a specified range (sub-slice).
The comparator closure argument can be easily reversed to carry out descending sort.
Its non destructive versions are Vecops::isort_indexed
, which returns an explicit sort index and Vcops::isort_refs()
which returns references Vec<&T>
in the sort order and is a bit faster. Neither of these two copies the potentially bulky end-types (the data items).
/// Mutable Operators on `&mut[T]`
pub trait Mutops<T> {
/// Associated method `part` partitions `s: &mut [&T]` within range `rng`, using comparator `c`.
/// Suitable pivot should be selected and placed in `s[rng.start]`.
/// Returns the boundaries of the rearranged partitions, (eqstart,gtstart), where
/// `rng.start..eqstart` (may be empty) contains references to items lesser than the pivot,
/// `gtstart-eqstart` is the number (>= 1) of items equal to the pivot (contains undefined references)
/// `gtstart..rng.end` (may be empty) contains references to items greater than the pivot.

Printing
use indxvec::Printing; // the trait methods
use indxvec::printing::*; // the ANSI colour constants
See tests/tests.rs
for examples of usage.
Suitable for printing or writing to files up to 4-tuples of differing type items, all kinds of Vecs and slices and irregularly shaped 2D matrices.
Serializes tuples: &(T,U)
, &(T,U,V)
, &(T,U,V,W)
and slices: &[T]
, &[&[T]]
, &[Vec<T>]
.
Additionally, wvec
writes contents of self as plain space separated values (.ssv
) to File, possibly raising io::Error(s):
fn wvec(self,f:&mut File) -> Result<(), io::Error> where Self: Sized;
Similarly, pvec
prints to stdout
:
fn pvec(self) where Self: Sized;
All above listed types are converted to Strings and optionally decorated and coloured. Included are methods and constants to render the resulting String in six primary bold ANSI terminal colours.
Note that all these types are unprintable in standard Rust (they do not have Display
implemented). Which is a big stumbling block for beginners. The methods of this trait convert all these types to printable (writeable) strings.
The colouring methods add the relevant colouring to the string output. This makes testing output much prettier and avoids reliance on Debug mode in production code. For finer control of the colouring, import the colour constants from printing::*
and use them in formatting strings manually. For example, switching colours:
use indxvec::printing::*; // ANSI colours constants
println!("{GR}green text, {RD}red warning, {BL}feeling blue{UN}");
Note that all of these colouring interpolations set their own new colour regardless of the previous settings. Interpolating {UN}
resets the terminal to its default foreground rendering.
UN
is automatically appended at the end of strings produced by the colouring methods rd()..cy()
. Be careful to always close with one of these, or explicit {UN}
. Otherwise all the following output will continue with the last selected colour foreground rendering!
Example from tests/tests.rs
:
println!("Memsearch for {BL}{midval}{UN}, found at: {}",
vm.memsearch(midval)
.map_or_else(||"None".rd(),|x| x.gr())
);
memsearch
returns Option(None)
, when midval
is not found in vm
. Here, None
will be printed in red, while any found item will be printed in green. Since x has been converted to String
by .gr()
, both closures return the same types, as required by map_or_else
.
use indxvec::{MinMax,here};
pub struct Minmax
holds minimum and maximum values of a Vec
and their indices.here!()
is a macro giving the filename, line number and function name of the place from where it was invoked. It can be interpolated into any error/tracing messages and reports.qsortf64()
applies sort_unstable_by()
to a mutable slice of f64s safely, using total_cmp()
.Version 1.9.5 Added best_k_indexed
and subspace
to Vecops
, to construct a subspace index
. Added select
to Indices to apply subspace index
to a data vector, projecting it efficiently to that subspace.
Version 1.9.1 Stopped Trait Printing consuming single items by implementing it for &T
rather than T
.
Version 1.9.0 Fn closure argument in trait Search changed to FnMut on user request. Added method partbinary
to trait Mutops
Version 1.8.9 Added associated function part
to trait Mutops
(call it as: <&mut [T]>::part(s, &rng, c)
).
Added method ref_vec
and associated function deref_vec
to trait Vecops
.
Version 1.8.8 Upgraded to ran 2.0
.
Version 1.8.7 Improved isort_refs()
and isort_indexed
.
Version 1.8.6 Added isort_refs()
suitable for bulky end-types. Added best_k
, possibly the fastest way to extract and sort k greatest or smallest items (by custom comparator).
Version 1.8.5 Added new algorithm 'insert log sort': mutisort()
and isort_indexed()
to Mutops
and Vecops
traits respectively. Also to tests.rs
.
Version 1.8.4 Added binary_by()
to trait Search
. It behaves like std::slice::binary_search_by()
but is more general, not expecting explicit data of any particular type. Nor is the indexing limited to usize
.
Version 1.8.3 Added &str
argument to macro here(msg:&str)
to incorporate payload error messages. Changed ierror
to idx_error
. It now returns Result
(Err variant), that can be more conveniently processed upstream with just the ?
operator. It is not really used in the code yet, so this improvement should be backwards compatible.
Example: return idx_error("size",here!("my specific further message"))?
will do all the necessary IdxError reporting for the Size
variant, plus output the custom message with file, line location and method name.
Version 1.8.2 Some minor tidying up and additions to tests. Upped dependencies.
Version 1.8.1 Added function qsortf64()
which sorts safely f64s.
Version 1.8.0 Changed trait of closure arguments from &mut FnMut(&T)
to Fn(T)
, which is adequate and simpler.
