Template std.algorithm.iteration.map

Implements the homonym function (also known as transform) present in many languages of functional flavor. The call map!(fun)(range) returns a range of which elements are obtained by applying fun(a) left to right for all elements a in range. The original ranges are not changed. Evaluation is done lazily.

Arguments

template map(fun...);

Functions

Map (higher-order function)

Example

import std.algorithm.comparison : equal;
import std.range : chain;
int[] arr1 = [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ];
int[] arr2 = [ 5, 6 ];
auto squares = map!(a => a * a)(chain(arr1, arr2));
assert(equal(squares, [ 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36 ]));

Example

Multiple functions can be passed to map. In that case, the element type of map is a tuple containing one element for each function.

auto sums = [2, 4, 6, 8];
auto products = [1, 4, 9, 16];

size_t i = 0;
foreach (result; [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ].map!("a + a", "a * a"))
{
    assert(result[0] == sums[i]);
    assert(result[1] == products[i]);
    ++i;
}

Example

You may alias map with some function(s) to a symbol and use it separately:

import std.algorithm.comparison : equal;
import std.conv : to;

alias stringize = map!(to!string);
assert(equal(stringize([ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]), [ "1", "2", "3", "4" ]));
