is_sorted: is an Iterator sorted

crates.io version Travis build status Appveyor build status Docs License

This crate extends the Iterator trait with the is_sorted, is_sorted_by, and is_sorted_by_key methods that check whether the iterator elements are sorted according to some order in O(N) time and O(1) space.

The algorithm to do this is obviously pretty trivial, but this allows this crate to showcases a couple of intermediate-level techniques that are useful when writing Rust components. This crates shows how to:

  • extend Iterator with your own algorithms
  • use specialization to provide more efficient implementations for certain type-comparison pairs
  • use stdsimd, target_feature, and cfg_target_feature to explicitly-vectorize some of the specializations using both compile-time (for #![no_std] users) and run-time (for std users) feature detection
  • implement callables that can be specialized on using fn_traits and unboxed_closures
  • support stable users even though the crate uses a lot of nightly-only features

The crate also adds the following callables that enable specialization based on the comparison operation being used:

  • is_sorted::Increasing: equivalent to a.partial_cmp(b)
  • is_sorted::Decreasing: equivalent to a.partial_cmp(b).map(|v| v.reverse())

When compiled with --features unstable the crate makes use of the following nightly-only features:

  • fn_traits, unboxed_closures: to implement the comparison callables
  • specialization: to specialize the algorithms for pairs of types and callables
  • stdsimd: std::arch is used by the specialization to explicitly vectorize the algorithms
  • align_offset: is used to handle misaligned inputs in the vectorized algorithms

Explicit vectorization delivers between 1.5x and 10x speed-ups over the code produced by rustc for some Iterators. To see it for yourself, just run:

$ cargo bench --features unstable
