data.range - RangeA range object is an immutable sequence with O(1) indexed access
to the elements, and each element may be computed procedurally.
For example, a range of intergers between 0 and N can be trivially
realized as a range, where i-th element is simply computed by
identity. It is a lot more space-efficient than actually generating
a sequence containing every number.
It also allows certain operations efficient, such as taking subsequence or appending sequences.
A range object can be used with :range qualifier in the
SRFI-42 eager comprehension (see srfi.42 - Eager comprehensions).
A portable range object interface is defined in srfi.196.
We implement the range object as a <sequence>, so that all
sequence framework interface can be used on the ranges
(see gauche.sequence - Sequence framework). We also provide some additional
procedures that are not in SRFI-196.
Range object class. Internally we use several subclasses
according to the nature of the range, but externally all
ranges can be treated as an instance of <range>.
The metaclass of <range> class.
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
Creates and returns a range of length length,
whose i-th element (0 <= i < length))
is determined by a procedure indexer, which takes i
as the sole argument and returns the corresponding element.
Note that indexer must run in O(1) time, and must be referentially transparent. The impelemntation may “expand” the range, that is, computes the element values into a flat vector internally.
(range->list (range 5 (^i (+ i 10)))) ⇒ (10 11 12 13 14)
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Creates and returns a range of integers starting from start (inclusive) and ending below end (exclusive), increasing with step. The default value of step is 1.
(range->list (numeric-range 2 6)) ⇒ (2 3 4 5) (range->list (numeric-range 0 5 2/3)) ⇒ (0 2/3 4/3 2 8/3 10/3 4 14/3)
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Creates and returns a range of integers. Total length of the range is length. The range starts from start (default 0), and increased with step (default 1).
(range->list (iota-range 5)) ⇒ (0 1 2 3 4) (range->list (iota-range 7 1 -1/7)) ⇒ (1 6/7 5/7 4/7 3/7 2/7 1/7)
[SRFI-196+]{data.range}
Returns a range over the given vector vec.
The vector is kept in the range, so you shouldn’t mutate vec.
See also vector->range below.
The optional start and end arguments limits the range of the vector to be used. They are Gauche’s extension and not in SRFI-196.
(range->list (vector-range '#(a b c))) ⇒ (a b c) (range->list (vector-range '#(a b c d e) 1 4)) ⇒ (b c d)
{data.range} Returns a range over the given uniform vector uvec. The uniform vector is kept in the range, so you shouldn’t mutate uvec.
The optional start and end arguments limits the range of the uniorm vector to be used.
{data.range}
Returns a range over the given bitvector bvec.
Bitvector/bool-range regards bvec as a boolean vector,
while bitvector/int-range regards it as a vector of 0 and 1.
See Bitvectors, for the details of bitvectors.
Note that bvec is kept in the range, so you shouldn’t mutate uvec.
The optional start and end arguments limits the range of the uniorm vector to be used.
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns a range over each character in the given string str. The string is kept in the range, so you shouldn’t mutate str.
The optional start and end arguments limits the range of the vector to be used. They are Gauche’s extension and not in SRFI-196.
(range->list (string-range "abc")) ⇒ (#\a #\b #\c) (range->list (string-range "abcde" 1 4)) ⇒ (#\b #\c #\d)

[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns true iff obj is a range.
[SRFI-196]{data.range}

⇒ #t
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns the length of range.
[SRFI-196+]{data.range} Returns the i-th element of range. The index i must be an exact integer.

[SRFI-196+]{data.range} Returns the first element of range.
If the range is empty, fallback is returned if given, or an error is signaled. The fallback argument is Gauche’s extension and not in SRFI-196.
[SRFI-196+]{data.range} Returns the last element of range.
If the range is empty, fallback is returned if given, or an error is signaled. The fallback argument is Gauche’s extension and not in SRFI-196.
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns two ranges, the first one with elements before k-th elements of range, and the second one with k-th elements and after of range.
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns a new range that contains start-th (inclusive) to end-th (exclusive) elements of range.
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Split range into subranges of length len. The last range may be shorter than len.

[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns a new range containing initial count elements or last count elements from range, respectively
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns a new range containing elements of range except initial count elements or last count elements, respectively.
[SRFI-196]{data.range} A procedure pred must take as many arguments as the given ranges. It is called on each corresponding element of range, range2 …, and the procedure returns the number of times pred returned true.
If more than one ranges are given and not all ranges are of the same length, iteration terminates at the end of the shortest range.
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
A procedure pred must take as many arguments as the given ranges.
It is called on each first element of
range, range2 …, then each second element, and so on.
As soon as pred returns a true value, the iteration stops
and the value pred returns becomes the result of range-any.
If pred never returns a true value, #f is returned.
If more than one ranges are given and not all ranges are of the same length, iteration terminates at the end of the shortest range.
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
A procedure pred must take as many arguments as the given ranges.
It is called on each first element of
range, range2 …, then each second element, and so on.
As soon as pred returns a false value, the iteration stops
and range-any returns #f.
If all pred returns a true value, the last value is returned.
If more than one ranges are given and not all ranges are of the same length, iteration terminates at the end of the shortest range.
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
Mapping over ranges.
A procedure proc must take as many arguments as the given ranges,
and is called on each corresponding element of
range, range2 …. The results are collected and returned
as a range (range-map), a list (range-map->list,
or a vector (range-map->vector. The dynamic order of
in which proc is invoked is not specified. Note that
range-map computes all elements before returning the result range.
If more than one ranges are given and not all ranges are of the same length, iteration terminates at the end of the shortest range.
[SRFI-196]{data.range} A procedure proc must take as many arguments as the given ranges. It is invoked with the first elements of each range, and then with the second elements of them, and so on, until the shortest range is exhausted. The result of proc is discarded.
Returns an undefined value.
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
A procedure pred must take as many arguments as the given ranges.
These are range version of filter, remove, and
filter-map (see Walking over lists).
The procedures without ->list returns the result as a range,
while the ones with ->list returns the result as a list.
The iteration stops when the shortest range is exhausted. The result is eagerly computed.
(range->list (range-filter odd? (iota-range 10))) ⇒ (1 3 5 7 9) (range-remove->list odd? (iota-range 10)) ⇒ (0 2 4 6 8) (range->list (range-filter-map (every-pred odd? square) (iota-range 10))) ⇒ (1 9 25 49 81)
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
These are range version of fold and fold-right
(see Walking over lists).
The iteration stops when the shortest range is exhausted.
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns the first or the last index of the element in the input range that satisfies a predicate pred. If there are more than one ranges, pred must take as many arguments as the number of input ranges, and applied on each corresponding elements of the input range.
(range-index > (vector-range '#(1 5 3 2 4))
(vector-range '#(4 3 0 4 6)))
⇒ 1
(range-index-right > (vector-range '#(1 5 3 2 4))
(vector-range '#(4 3 0 4 6)))
⇒ 2
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
Same as take-while, take-while-right, drop-while,
and drop-while-right, except those operate on an range
and return an range, instead of a list (see scheme.list - R7RS lists).
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
Convert a range to a list, a vector ro a string, respectively.
For range->string, the argument must be a range consists solely
of characters.
[SRFI-196]{data.range}
Returns a range whose elements are those of a vector vec.
Unlike vector-range, the content of vec is copied into
the range, so mutating vec won’t alter the resulting range.
The optional start and end arguments limit the portion to be used for the result.
[SRFI-196]{data.range} Returns a generator that yields each element of range, between start (inclusive) and end (exclusive) indexes. When omitted, start is 0 and end is the size of the range.
