xrange 0.0.9

Provides classes and methods allowing to work with ranges

This is a fork of Interval library

XRange lib

Provides the Range class, a contiguous set of values, and the NumRange class, that along with functionality of Range class can also generate values of arithmetic progression in a specific diapason.

If a range contains two values, it also contains all values between them. It may have an upper and lower bound, and those bounds may be open or closed.

Also the library contains integers generator function, that is based on NumRange class. It produces integer values from a specific closed diapason.

Usage

Range

import 'package:xrange/range.dart';

void main() {
  final date1 = DateTime(2015);
  final date2 = DateTime(2021);
  final dates = Range<DateTime>.closed(date1, date2);

  if (dates.contains(DateTime.now())) {
    print('Hi, contemporary!');
  } else {
    print('Apparently, you are from the future!');
  }
}

NumRange

import 'package:xrange/num_range.dart';

void main() {
  final range = NumRange.closed(-10, 10);
  
  for (final value in range.values(step: 2)) {
    print(value); // it yields numbers from -10 to 10 with step equals 2
  }
}

Pay attention to values method - it is a generator function, so use all the benefits of this.

integers

import 'package:xrange/integers.dart';

void main() {
  for (final value in integers(-10, 10)) {
    print(value); // it yields numbers from -10 to 10 with step equals 2
  }
}

The integers function returns a lazy iterable, thus it consumes little memory, since the whole collection is not being generated when integers is called.
