==========
|
|
|
|
This module provides overloads of standard algorithms that leverage
|
|
the internal structure of the immutable containers to provide faster
|
|
iteration. These are drop-in replacements of the respective STL
|
|
algorithms that can be a few times faster when applied on immutable
|
|
sequences.
|
|
|
|
For further convenience they can be passed in just a container where
|
|
the standard library algorithms require being passed in two iterators.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
They are a similar idea to `structure-aware iterators`_
|
|
but implemented using higher order functions in order to support
|
|
structures of any depth. The downside is that this sometimes
|
|
causes the compiler to generate bigger executable files.
