Module Biocaml.Interval_tree (.ml)

module Interval_tree: Biocaml_interval_tree

type 'a t

exception Empty_tree

Accessors

val is_empty  : 'a t -> bool

val cardinal  : 'a t -> int

val intersects  : 'a t -> low:int -> high:int -> bool

intersects a b t returns true if one interval in t intersects with the interval [a;b].

Constructors

val empty  : 'a t

the empty tree

val add  : 'a t ->
 low:int -> high:int -> data:'a -> 'a t

add lo hi v t adds the interval (lo, hi) labeled with value v to the contents of t. Note that in contrast to sets, identical intervals (even with identical labels) may be *repeated* in an interval tree. E.g., add 1 2 () (add 1 2 ()) contains 2 intervals.

Conversion

val elements  : 'a t -> (int * int * 'a) list

val to_stream  : 'a t -> (int * int * 'a) Stream.t

val to_backwards_stream  : 'a t -> (int * int * 'a) Stream.t

Searching and filtering

val find_closest  : int -> int -> 'a t -> int * int * 'a * int

find_closest lo hi t returns the interval in t which is at minimal distance of the interval [lo;hi]. The resulting tuple contains from left to right, left-end of the interval, right-end of the interval, value associated to the interval and distance to the interval given in argument. Overlapping intervals are at distance 0 of each other.

Raises Empty_tree if t is empty

val find_intersecting_elem  : int -> int -> 'a t -> (int * int * 'a) Stream.t

find_intersecting_elem a b t is equivalent to

Stream.filter ~f:(fun
 (x,y,_) -> intersects x y t) (stream t)

but is more efficient.

val filter_overlapping  : 'a t ->
 low:int -> high:int -> 'a t

Create an interval tree with the elements which overlap with [low, high].

Misc

val print  : 'a t -> unit

Used for debugging purpose, should be removed in the long run

val check_integrity  : 'a t -> unit

Used for debugging purpose, should be removed in the long run
