(** Dynamic arrays.
The {!Array} module provide arrays of fixed length. {!Dynarray}
provides arrays whose length can change over time, by adding or
removing elements at the end of the array.
This is typically used to accumulate elements whose number is not
known in advance or changes during computation, while also
providing fast access to elements at arbitrary indices.
{[
let dynarray_of_list li =
let arr = Dynarray.create () in
List.iter (fun v -> Dynarray.add_last arr v) li;
arr
]}
The {!Buffer} module provides similar features, but it is
specialized for accumulating characters into a dynamically-resized
string.
The {!Stack} module provides a last-in first-out data structure
that can be easily implemented on top of dynamic arrays.

elements to the end of the array.
We say that an index into a dynarray [a] is valid if it is in
[0 .. length a - 1] and invalid otherwise.

This is similar to {!Array.init}.

If you really want to append a copy of [a] to itself, you can use

array with new elements: it is valid to call [blit] even when
[dst_pos + len] is larger than [length dst]. The only requirement

(** {2:capacity Backing array, capacity}
Internally, a dynamic array uses a {b backing array} (a fixed-size
array as provided by the {!Array} module) whose length is greater
or equal to the length of the dynamic array. We define the {b
capacity} of a dynamic array as the length of its backing array.
The capacity of a dynamic array is relevant in advanced scenarios,
when reasoning about the performance of dynamic array programs:
{ul
{- The memory usage of a dynamic array is proportional to its capacity,
rather than its length.}
{- When there is no empty space left at the end of the backing array,
adding elements requires allocating a new, larger backing array.}}
The implementation uses a standard exponential reallocation
strategy which guarantees amortized constant-time operation; in
particular, the total capacity of all backing arrays allocated
over the lifetime of a dynamic array is at worst proportional to
the total number of elements added.
In other words, users need not care about capacity and reallocations,
and they will get reasonable behavior by default. However, in some
performance-sensitive scenarios the functions below can help control
memory usage or guarantee an optimal number of reallocations.

@raise Invalid_argument if the requested capacity is
outside the range [0 .. Sys.max_array_length].
An example would be to reimplement {!of_array} without using {!init}:
{[
let of_array arr =
let a = Dynarray.create () in
Dynarray.ensure_capacity a (Array.length arr);
Array.iter (fun v -> add_last a v) arr
]}
Using [ensure_capacity] guarantees that at most one reallocation
will take place, instead of possibly several.
Without this [ensure_capacity] hint, the number of resizes would
be logarithmic in the length of [arr], creating a constant-factor
slowdown noticeable when [arr] is large.
*)
val ensure_extra_capacity : 'a t -> int -> unit
(** [ensure_extra_capacity a n] is [ensure_capacity a (length a + n)],
it makes sure that [a] has room for [n] extra items.
@raise Invalid_argument if the total requested capacity is
outside the range [0 .. Sys.max_array_length].
A use case would be to implement {!append_array}:
{[
let append_array a arr =
ensure_extra_capacity a (Array.length arr);
Array.iter (fun v -> add_last a v) arr
]}

val fit_capacity : 'a t -> unit
(** [fit_capacity a] reallocates a backing array if necessary, so that
the resulting capacity is exactly [length a], with no additional
empty space at the end. This can be useful to make sure there is
no memory wasted on a long-lived array.
Note that calling [fit_capacity] breaks the amortized complexity
guarantees provided by the default reallocation strategy. Calling
it repeatedly on an array may have quadratic complexity, both in
time and in total number of words allocated.
If you know that a dynamic array has reached its final length,
which will remain fixed in the future, it is sufficient to call
[to_array] and only keep the resulting fixed-size
array. [fit_capacity] is useful when you need to keep a dynamic
array for eventual future resizes.
*)
val set_capacity : 'a t -> int -> unit
(** [set_capacity a n] reallocates a backing array if necessary,
so that the resulting capacity is exactly [n]. In particular,
all elements of index [n] or greater are removed.
Like {!fit_capacity}, this function breaks the amortized
complexity guarantees provided by the reallocation
strategy. Calling it repeatedly on an array may have quadratic
complexity, both in time and in total number of words allocated.
This is an advanced function; in particular, {!ensure_capacity}
should be preferred to increase the capacity, as it preserves
those amortized guarantees.
@raise Invalid_argument if [n < 0].
*)
val reset : 'a t -> unit
(** [reset a] clears [a] and replaces its backing array by an empty array.
It is equivalent to [set_capacity a 0] or [clear a; fit_capacity a].
*)
(** {2:noleaks No leaks: preservation of memory liveness}
The user-provided values reachable from a dynamic array [a] are
exactly the elements in the indices [0] to [length a - 1]. In
particular, no user-provided values are "leaked" by being present
in the backing array at index [length a] or later.

{2:example_min_heap Min-heaps for mutable priority queues}
We can use dynamic arrays to implement a mutable priority
queue. A priority queue provides a function to add elements, and
a function to extract the minimum element -- according to some
comparison function.
{[
(* We present our priority queues as a functor
parametrized on the comparison function. *)
module Heap (Elem : Map.OrderedType) : sig
type t
val create : unit -> t
val add : t -> Elem.t -> unit
val pop_min : t -> Elem.t option
end = struct
(* Our priority queues are implemented using the standard "min heap"
data structure, a dynamic array representing a binary tree. *)
type t = Elem.t Dynarray.t
let create = Dynarray.create
(* The node of index [i] has as children the nodes of index [2 * i + 1]
and [2 * i + 2] -- if they are valid indices in the dynarray. *)
let left_child i = 2 * i + 1
let right_child i = 2 * i + 2
let parent_node i = (i - 1) / 2
(* We use indexing operators for convenient notations. *)
let ( .!() ) = Dynarray.get
let ( .!()<- ) = Dynarray.set
(* Auxiliary functions to compare and swap two elements
in the dynamic array. *)
let order h i j =
Elem.compare h.!(i) h.!(j)
let swap h i j =
let v = h.!(i) in
h.!(i) <- h.!(j);
h.!(j) <- v
(* We say that a heap respects the "heap ordering" if the value of
each node is smaller than the value of its children. The
algorithm manipulates arrays that respect the heap algorithm,
except for one node whose value may be too small or too large.
The auxiliary functions [heap_up] and [heap_down] take
such a misplaced value, and move it "up" (respectively: "down")
the tree by permuting it with its parent value (respectively:
a child value) until the heap ordering is restored. *)
let rec heap_up h i =
if i = 0 then () else
let parent = parent_node i in
if order h i parent < 0 then
(swap h i parent; heap_up h parent)
and heap_down h ~len i =
let left, right = left_child i, right_child i in
if left >= len then () (* no child, stop *) else
let smallest =
if right >= len then left (* no right child *) else
if order h left right < 0 then left else right
in
if order h i smallest > 0 then
(swap h i smallest; heap_down h ~len smallest)
let add h s =
let i = Dynarray.length h in
Dynarray.add_last h s;
heap_up h i
let pop_min h =
if Dynarray.is_empty h then None
else begin
(* Standard trick: swap the 'best' value at index 0
with the last value of the array. *)
let last = Dynarray.length h - 1 in
swap h 0 last;
(* At this point [pop_last] returns the 'best' value,
and leaves a heap with one misplaced element at index [0]. *)
let best = Dynarray.pop_last h in
(* Restore the heap ordering -- does nothing if the heap is empty. *)
heap_down h ~len:last 0;
Some best
end
end
]}
The production code from which this example was inspired includes
logic to free the backing array when the heap becomes empty, only in
the case where the capacity is above a certain threshold. This can be
done by calling the following function from [pop]:
{[
let shrink h =
if Dynarray.length h = 0 && Dynarray.capacity h > 1 lsl 18 then
Dynarray.reset h
]}
The [Heap] functor can be used to implement a sorting function, by
adding all elements into a priority queue and then extracting them in
order.
{[
let heap_sort (type a) cmp li =
let module Heap = Heap(struct type t = a let compare = cmp end) in
let heap = Heap.create () in
List.iter (Heap.add heap) li;
List.map (fun _ -> Heap.pop_min heap |> Option.get) li
]}
