Sequence
Simple sequence abstract datatype, intented to transfer a finite number of
elements from one data structure to another. Some transformations on sequences,
like filter, map, take, drop and append can be performed before the
sequence is iterated/folded on.
Sequence is not designed to be as general-purpose or flexible as, say,
Batteries' Enum.t. Rather, it aims at providing a very simple and efficient
way of iterating on a finite number of values, only allocating (most of the time)
one intermediate closure to do so. For instance, iterating on keys, or values,
of a Hashtbl.t, without creating a list.
Build
You need OCaml, say OCaml 3.12 or OCaml 4.0.
$ make
To see how to use it, check tests.ml. sequence.ml has a few examples of how to convert
data structures into sequences, and conversely.
The module sexpr.mli exposes the interface of the S-expression example library. It
requires OCaml>=4.0 to compile, because of the GADT structure used in the monadic
parser combinators part of sexpr.ml.
