Grids aka two-dimensional arrays

Following conventions in mathematics, grids are considered rows first. Thus in the following, height refers to the first dimension and width to the second dimension.

0 1 j width-1 +---+---+---+---+---+--+ 0 | | | | | | | +---+---+---+---+---+--+ 1 | | | | | | | +---+---+---+---+---+--+ i | | | | X | | | +---+---+---+---+---+--+ height-1 | | | | | | | +---+---+---+---+---+--+

Following OCaml conventions, indices are 0-based.

For the width to be well-defined, some of the following functions assume a positive number of rows (and, to be consistent, a positive number of columns).

type 'a t = 'a array array
type position = int * int

A position is an ordered pair (i,j), where i is the row and j is the column. Rows and columns are 0-based.

val height : 'a t -> int

Returns the number of rows.

val width : 'a t -> int

Returns the number of columns.

val size : 'a t -> int * int

both height and width, in that order

val make : int -> int -> 'a -> 'a t

make h w v returns a new grid with height h and width w, where all values are equal to v. Raises Invalid_argument if h<1 or w<1.

For h>=1 and w>=1, this is equivalent to Array.make_matrix h w v.

val init : int -> int -> (position -> 'a) -> 'a t

init h w f returns a new grid with height h and width w, where the value at position p is f p. Raises Invalid_argument if h<1 or w<1.

val get : 'a t -> position -> 'a

get g p returns the value at position p. Raises Invalid_argument if the position is out of bounds.

val set : 'a t -> position -> 'a -> unit

set g p v sets the value at position p, with v. Raises Invalid_argument if the position is out of bounds.

val inside : 'a t -> position -> bool

inside g p indicates whether position p is a legal position in g

val north : position -> position

the position above in the grid

val north_west : position -> position

the position above left in the grid

val west : position -> position

the position to the left in the grid

val south_west : position -> position

the position below left in the grid

val south : position -> position

the position below in the grid

val south_east : position -> position

the position below right in the grid

val east : position -> position

the position to the right in the grid

val north_east : position -> position

the position above right in the grid

val move : direction -> position -> position
val rotate_left : 'a t -> 'a t

rotate_left g returns a new grid that is the left rotation of g

val rotate_right : 'a t -> 'a t

rotate_right g returns a new grid that is the right rotation of g

val map : (position -> 'a -> 'b) -> 'a t -> 'b t
val iter4 : (position -> 'a -> unit) -> 'a t -> position -> unit

iter4 f g p applies function f on the four neightbors of position p (provided they exist)

val iter8 : (position -> 'a -> unit) -> 'a t -> position -> unit

iter4 f g p applies function f on the eight neightbors of position p (provided they exist)

val iter : (position -> 'a -> unit) -> 'a t -> unit

iter f g applies function f at each position of the grid g

val fold : (position -> 'a -> 'acc -> 'acc) -> 'a t -> 'acc -> 'acc

fold f g folds function f over each position of the grid g

val print : ?bol:(Stdlib.Format.formatter -> int -> unit) -> ?eol:(Stdlib.Format.formatter -> int -> unit) -> ?sep:(Stdlib.Format.formatter -> position -> unit) -> (Stdlib.Format.formatter -> position -> 'a -> unit) -> Stdlib.Format.formatter -> 'a t -> unit

print pp fmt g prints the grid g on formatter fmt, using function pp to print each element.

Function bol is called at the beginning of each line, and is passed the line number. The default function does nothing.

Function eol is called at the end of each line, and is passed the line number. The default function calls Format.pp_print_newline.

Function sep is printed between two consecutive element on a given row (and is passed the position of the left one). The default function does nothing.

val print_chars : Stdlib.Format.formatter -> char t -> unit

prints a grid of characters using Format.pp_print_char

val read : Stdlib.in_channel -> char t

read c reads a grid of characters from the input channel c. Raises Invalid_argument if the lines do not have the same length, or there is no line at all.
