Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

SRFI-113: Sets and Bags

Sets and bags (also known as multisets) are unordered collections that can contain any Scheme object. Sets enforce the constraint that no two elements can be the same in the sense of the set's associated equality predicate; bags do not.

Installation

$ chicken-install srfi-113

or

$ chicken-install srfi-113 -test

if you want to run the tests for the egg in addition.

SRFI Description

For a full description of this SRFI, see the full SRFI document. This documentation covers the API only.

Although this version of SRFI-113 is based on the reference implementation, there is one notable difference. As SRFI-114 comparators have been deprecated in favour of SRFI-128 comparators, this egg uses SRFI-128 comparators whenever a comparator is needed. Thus, this egg depends on SRFI-128.

Set Procedures

Constructors

set comparator element ...procedure

Returns a newly allocated empty set. The comparator argument is a SRFI-128 comparator, which is used to control and distinguish the elements of the set. The elements are used to initialize the set.

set-unfold comparator stop? mapper successor seedprocedure

Create a newly allocated set as if by set using comparator. If the result of applying the predicate stop? to seed is true, return the set. Otherwise, apply the procedure mapper to seed. The value that mapper returns is added to the set. Then get a new seed by applying the procedure successor to seed, and repeat this algorithm.

Predicates

set? objprocedure

Returns #t if obj is a set, and #f otherwise.

set-contains? set elementprocedure

Returns #t if element is a member of set and #f otherwise.

set-empty? setprocedure

Returns #t if set has no elements and #f otherwise.

set-disjoint? set1 set2procedure

Returns #t if set1 and set2 have no elements in common and #f otherwise.

Accessors

set-member set element defaultprocedure

Returns the element of set that is equal, in the sense of set's equality predicate, to element. If element is not a member of set, default is returned.

set-element-comparator setprocedure

Returns the comparator used to compare the elements of set.

Updaters

set-adjoin set element ...procedure

The set-adjoin procedure returns a newly allocated set that uses the same comparator as set and contains all the values of set, and in addition each element unless it is already equal (in the sense of the comparator) to one of the existing or newly added members. It is an error to add an element to set that does not return #t when passed to the type test procedure of the comparator.

set-adjoin! set element ...procedure

The set-adjoin! procedure is the same as set-adjoin, except that it is permitted to mutate and return the set argument rather than allocating a new set.

set-replace set elementprocedure

The set-replace procedure returns a newly allocated set that uses the same comparator as set and contains all the values of set except as follows: If element is equal (in the sense of set's comparator) to an existing member of set, then that member is omitted and replaced by element. If there is no such element in set, then set is returned unchanged.

set-replace! set elementprocedure

The set-replace! procedure is the same as set-replace, except that it is permitted to mutate and return the set argument rather than allocating a new set.

set-delete set element ...procedure
set-delete! set element ...procedure
set-delete-all set element-listprocedure
set-delete-all! set element-listprocedure

The set-delete procedure returns a newly allocated set containing all the values of set except for any that are equal (in the sense of set's comparator) to one or more of the elements. Any element that is not equal to some member of the set is ignored.

The set-delete! procedure is the same as set-delete, except that it is permitted to mutate and return the set argument rather than allocating a new set.

The set-delete-all and set-delete-all! procedures are the same as set-delete and set-delete!, except that they accept a single argument which is a list of elements to be deleted.

set-search! set element failure successprocedure

The set is searched for element. If it is not found, then the failure procedure is tail-called with two continuation arguments, insert and ignore, and is expected to tail-call one of them. If element is found, then the success procedure is tail-called with the matching element of set and two continuations, update and remove, and is expected to tail-call one of them.

The effects of the continuations are as follows (where obj is any Scheme object):

  • Invoking (insert obj) causes element to be inserted into set.
  • Invoking (ignore obj) causes set to remain unchanged.
  • Invoking (update new-element obj) causes new-element to be inserted into set in place of element.
  • Invoking (remove obj) causes the matching element of set to be removed from it.

In all cases, two values are returned: the possibly updated set and obj.

The Whole Set

set-size setprocedure

Returns the number of elements in set as an exact integer.

set-find predicate set failureprocedure

Returns an arbitrarily chosen element of set that satisfies predicate, or the result of invoking failure with no arguments if there is none.

set-count predicate setprocedure

Returns the number of elements of set that satisfy predicate as an exact integer.

set-any? predicate setprocedure

Returns #t if any element of set satisfies predicate, or #f otherwise. Note that this differs from the SRFI 1 analogue because it does not return an element of the set.

set-every? predicate setprocedure

Returns #t if every element of set satisfies predicate, or #f otherwise. Note that this differs from the SRFI 1 analogue because it does not return an element of the set.

Mapping and Folding

set-map comparator proc setprocedure

Applies proc to each element of set in arbitrary order and returns a newly allocated set, created as if by (set comparator), which contains the results of the applications. For example:

(set-map string-ci-comparator symbol->string (set eq? 'foo 'bar 'baz))
     => (set string-ci-comparator "foo" "bar" "baz")

Note that, when proc defines a mapping that is not 1:1, some of the mapped objects may be equivalent in the sense of comparator's equality predicate, and in this case duplicate elements are omitted as in the set constructor. For example:

(set-map (lambda (x) (quotient x 2))
         integer-comparator
         (set integer-comparator 1 2 3 4 5))
 => (set integer-comparator 0 1 2)

If the elements are the same in the sense of eqv?, it is unpredictable which one will be preserved in the result.

set-for-each proc setprocedure

Applies proc to set in arbitrary order, discarding the returned values. Returns an unspecified result.

set-fold proc nil setprocedure

Invokes proc on each member of set in arbitrary order, passing the result of the previous invocation as a second argument. For the first invocation, nil is used as the second argument. Returns the result of the last invocation, or nil if there was no invocation.

set-filter predicate setprocedure

Returns a newly allocated set with the same comparator as set, containing just the elements of set that satisfy predicate.

set-filter! predicate setprocedure

A linear update procedure that returns a set containing just the elements of set that satisfy predicate.

set-remove predicate setprocedure

Returns a newly allocated set with the same comparator as set, containing just the elements of set that do not satisfy predicate.

set-remove! predicate setprocedure

A linear update procedure that returns a set containing just the elements of set that do not satisfy predicate.

set-partition predicate setprocedure

Returns two values: a newly allocated set with the same comparator as set that contains just the elements of set that satisfy predicate, and another newly allocated set, also with the same comparator, that contains just the elements of set that do not satisfy predicate.

set-partition! predicate setprocedure

A linear update procedure that returns two sets containing the elements of set that do and do not, respectively, not satisfy predicate.

Copying and Conversion

set-copy setprocedure

Returns a newly allocated set containing the elements of set, and using the same comparator.

set->list setprocedure

Returns a newly allocated list containing the members of set in unspecified order.

list->set comparator listprocedure

Returns a newly allocated set, created as if by set using comparator, that contains the elements of list. Duplicate elements (in the sense of the equality predicate) are omitted.

list->set! set listprocedure

Returns a set that contains the elements of both set and list. Duplicate elements (in the sense of the equality predicate) are omitted.

Subsets

Note: The following three predicates do not obey the trichotomy law and therefore do not constitute a total order on sets.

set=? set1 set2 ...procedure

Returns #t if each set contains the same elements.

set<? set1 set2 ...procedure

Returns #t if each set other than the last is a proper subset of the following set, and #f otherwise.

set>? set1 set2 ...procedure

Returns #t if each set other than the last is a proper superset of the following set, and #f otherwise.

set<=? set1 set2 ...procedure

Returns #t if each set other than the last is a subset of the following set, and #f otherwise.

set>=? set1 set2 ...procedure

Returns #t if each set other than the last is a superset of the following set, and #f otherwise.

Set-theory Operations

set-union set1 set2 ...procedure
set-intersection set1 set2 ...procedure
set-difference set1 set2 ...procedure
set-xor set1 set2procedure

Return a newly allocated set that is the union, intersection, asymmetric difference, or symmetric difference of the sets. Asymmetric difference is extended to more than two sets by taking the difference between the first set and the union of the others. Symmetric difference is not extended beyond two sets. Elements in the result set are drawn from the first set in which they appear.

set-union! set1 set2 ...procedure
set-intersection! set1 set2 ...procedure
set-difference! set1 set2 ...procedure
set-xor! set1 set2procedure

Linear update procedures returning a set that is the union, intersection, asymmetric difference, or symmetric difference of the sets. Asymmetric difference is extended to more than two sets by taking the difference between the first set and the union of the others. Symmetric difference is not extended beyond two sets. Elements in the result set are drawn from the first set in which they appear.

Bag Procedures

Bags are like sets, but can contain the same object more than once. However, if two elements that are the same in the sense of the equality predicate, but not in the sense of eqv?, are both included, it is not guaranteed that they will remain distinct when retrieved from the bag. It is an error for a single procedure to be invoked on bags with different comparators.

The procedures for creating and manipulating bags are the same as those for sets, except that set is replaced by bag in their names, and that adjoining an element to a bag is effective even if the bag already contains the element. If two elements in a bag are the same in the sense of the bag's comparator, the implementation may in fact store just one of them.

The bag-union, bag-intersection, bag-difference, and bag-xor procedures (and their linear update analogues) behave as follows when both bags contain elements that are equal in the sense of the bags' comparator:

Constructors

bag comparator element ...procedure

Returns a newly allocated empty bag. The comparator argument is a SRFI-128 comparator, which is used to control and distinguish the elements of the bag. The elements are used to initialize the bag.

bag-unfold comparator stop? mapper successor seedprocedure

Create a newly allocated bag as if by bag using comparator. If the result of applying the predicate stop? to seed is true, return the bag. Otherwise, apply the procedure mapper to seed. The value that mapper returns is added to the bag. Then get a new seed by applying the procedure successor to seed, and repeat this algorithm.

Predicates

bag? objprocedure

Returns #t if obj is a bag, and #f otherwise.

bag-contains? bag elementprocedure

Returns #t if element is a member of bag and #f otherwise.

bag-empty? bagprocedure

Returns #t if bag has no elements and #f otherwise.

bag-disjoint? bag1 bag2procedure

Returns #t if bag1 and bag2 have no elements in common and #f otherwise.

Accessors

bag-member bag element defaultprocedure

Returns the element of bag that is equal, in the sense of bag's equality predicate, to element. If element is not a member of bag, default is returned.

bag-element-comparator bagprocedure

Returns the comparator used to compare the elements of bag.

Updaters

bag-adjoin bag element ...procedure

The bag-adjoin procedure returns a newly allocated bag that uses the same comparator as bag and contains all the values of bag, and in addition each element. It is an error to add an element to bag that does not return #t when passed to the type test procedure of the comparator.

bag-adjoin! bag element ...procedure

The bag-adjoin! procedure is the same as bag-adjoin, except that it is permitted to mutate and return the bag argument rather than allocating a new bag.

bag-replace bag elementprocedure

The bag-replace procedure returns a newly allocated bag that uses the same comparator as bag and contains all the values of bag. If there is no such element in bag, then bag is returned unchanged.

bag-replace! bag elementprocedure

bag-delete bag element ...procedure
bag-delete! bag element ...procedure
bag-delete-all bag element-listprocedure
bag-delete-all! bag element-listprocedure

The bag-delete procedure returns a newly allocated bag containing all the values of bag Any element that is not equal to some member of the bag is ignored.

The bag-delete! procedure is the same as bag-delete, except that it is permitted to mutate and return the bag argument rather than allocating a new bag.

The bag-delete-all and bag-delete-all!} procedures are the same as {{bag-delete and bag-delete!, except that they accept a single argument which is a list of elements to be deleted.

bag-search! bag element failure successprocedure

The bag is searched for element. If it is not found, then the failure procedure is tail-called with two continuation arguments, insert and ignore, and is expected to tail-call one of them. If element is found, then the success procedure is tail-called with the matching element of bag and two continuations, update and remove, and is expected to tail-call one of them.

The effects of the continuations are as follows (where obj is any Scheme object):

  • Invoking (insert obj) causes element to be inserted into bag.
  • Invoking (ignore obj) causes bag to remain unchanged.
  • Invoking (update new-element obj) causes new-element to be inserted into bag in place of element.
  • Invoking (remove obj) causes the matching element of bag to be removed from it.

bag->alist bagprocedure
alist->bag comparator alistprocedure

The bag->alist procedure returns a newly allocated alist whose keys are the unique elements of bag and whose values are the number of occurrences of each element. The alist->bag returning a newly allocated bag based on comparator, where the keys of alist specify the elements and the corresponding values of alist specify how many times they occur.

Comparators

The following comparators are used to compare sets or bags, and allow sets of

sets, bags of sets, etc.

set-comparatorconstant
bag-comparatorconstant

Note: that these comparators do not provide comparison procedures, as there is no ordering between sets or bags. It is an error to compare sets or bags with different element comparators.
