deferred class HOARD [E_]
Summary
A hoard of objects is a collation of many objects sharing the same type. This meta type defines some traversal features using agents, as well as very simple hoard properties: count and is_empty.
Direct parents
Insert list: ANY
Known children
Inherit list: INDEXABLE, ITERABLE
Overview
Features
Counting:
{ANY}
Agent-based features:
{ANY}
{}
count: INTEGER_32
deferred function
{ANY}
Number of available items in the hoard.
See also is_empty
ensure
  • Result >= 0
is_empty: BOOLEAN
deferred function
{ANY}
Is the hoard empty ?
See also count.
ensure
  • definition: Result = count = 0
for_each (action: PROCEDURE[TUPLE[TUPLE 1[E_]]])
deferred procedure
{ANY}
Apply action to every item of Current.
See also for_all, exists, aggregate.
require
  • action /= Void
do_all (action: ROUTINE[TUPLE[TUPLE 1[E_]]])
frozen
effective procedure
{ANY}
Apply action to every item of Current.
This feature is obsolete: Use `for_each` instead. This feature is not secure because it accepts a FUNCTION, the result of which is lost.
for_all (test: FUNCTION[TUPLE[TUPLE 1[E_]]]): BOOLEAN
deferred function
{ANY}
Do all items satisfy test?
See also for_each, exists, aggregate.
require
  • test /= Void
exists (test: FUNCTION[TUPLE[TUPLE 1[E_]]]): BOOLEAN
deferred function
{ANY}
Does at least one item satisfy test?
See also for_each, for_all, aggregate.
require
  • test /= Void
aggregate (action: FUNCTION[TUPLE[TUPLE 2[E_, E_], E_]], initial: E_): E_
deferred function
{ANY}
Aggregate all the elements starting from the initial value.
See also for_each, for_all, exists.
require
  • action /= Void
_inline_agent1 (a: ROUTINE[TUPLE[TUPLE 1[E_]]], e: E_)
