type library

Data types and their base functions.

Classes

BigIntDataType
BigIntEquality
BigIntField
BooleanDataType
Complex
A complex number of the form a + b*i.
ComplexDataType
ComplexEquality
ComplexField
DataType<T>
Descriptor of a data type T, how it is efficiently represented and stored in memory, and strategy of how common operations work.
Equality<T>
Encapsulates equality between and the hash code of objects.
Field<T>
Encapsulates a mathematical field.
Float32DataType
Float64DataType
FloatDataType<L extends List<double>>
FloatEquality
FloatField
Fraction
A rational number.
FractionDataType
FractionEquality
FractionField
Int16DataType
Int32DataType
Int64DataType
Int8DataType
IntegerDataType<L extends List<int>>
IntegerEquality
IntegerField
ModuloDataType<T>
ModuloEquality<T>
ModuloField<T>
NaturalEquality<T>
The natural and canonical equality of objects.
NullableDataType<T>
Some DataType instances do not support null values in the way they represent their data. This wrapper turns those types into nullable ones.
NullableList<T>
A list with null values, where the null values are tracked in a separate BitList. For certain types of typed lists, this is the only way to track null values.
NumericDataType
NumericEquality
NumericField
ObjectDataType<T>
Quaternion
A quaternion number of the form w + x*i + y*j + z*k.
QuaternionDataType
QuaternionEquality
QuaternionField
StringDataType
StringEquality
Uint16DataType
Uint32DataType
Uint64DataType
Uint8DataType

Mixins

CompareOperators<T>
A generic mixin that provides standard comparison operators like <, <=, >= and > provided the class is Comparable.

Functions

delegateComparator<T, R extends Comparable<R>>(R transformation(T value)) → Comparator<T>
Creates a comparator that compares values of type T but delegates the decision to a Comparable<R> with the provided transformation.
editDistance(String a, String b) → int
Computes the Levenshtein edit distance between two strings a and b: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance
explicitComparator<T>(Iterable<T> iterable) → Comparator<T>
Returns an explicit Comparator based on an iterable of elements.
keyOf<T, R extends Comparable<R>>(R transformation(T value)) → Comparator<T>
Creates a comparator that compares values of type T but delegates the decision to a Comparable<R> with the provided transformation.
naturalComparable<T extends Comparable<T>>(T a, T b) → int
Natural static Comparator function using Comparable arguments.
naturalCompare(Object? a, Object? b) → int
Natural dynamic Comparator function.
reverseComparable<T extends Comparable<T>>(T a, T b) → int
Reversed static Comparator function using Comparable arguments.
reverseCompare(Object? a, Object? b) → int
Reversed dynamic Comparator function.
