Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	append(Sequence<T> s)	Concatenates ("appends") s to the end of this.
T	entry(int pos)	Reports the entry at position pos of this.
void	extract(int pos1, int pos2, Sequence<T> s)	Removes the substring of this starting at position pos1 and ending at position pos2-1 and puts in it s.
void	flip()	Reverses ("flips") this.
void	insert(int pos, Sequence<T> s)	Inserts s into this at position pos, i.e., after the pos-th entry of this; and clears s.
T	replaceEntry(int pos, T x)	Replaces the entry at position pos of this with the entry x and returns the old entry at that position.

Method Details

entry

T entry(int pos)

Reports the entry at position pos of this.

Parameters:

pos - the position of the entry

Returns:

the entry at that position

Aliases:

reference returned by entry

Requires:

0 <= pos and pos < |this|

Ensures:

<entry> = this[pos, pos+1)

replaceEntry

T replaceEntry(int pos,
 T x)

Replaces the entry at position pos of this with the entry x and returns the old entry at that position.

Parameters:

pos - the position at which to replace an entry

x - the entry replacing the old one

Returns:

the old entry at that position

Aliases:

reference x

Updates:

this

Requires:

0 <= pos and pos < |this|

Ensures:

<replaceEntry> = #this[pos, pos+1)  and
this = #this[0, pos) * <x> * #this[pos+1, |#this|)

append

void append(Sequence<T> s)

Concatenates ("appends") s to the end of this.

Parameters:

s - the Sequence to be appended

Updates:

this

Clears:

s

Ensures:

this = #this * #s

flip

void flip()

Reverses ("flips") this.

Updates:

this

Ensures:

this = rev(#this)

insert

void insert(int pos,
 Sequence<T> s)

Inserts s into this at position pos, i.e., after the pos-th entry of this; and clears s.

Parameters:

pos - the position at which to insert

s - the Sequence to be inserted

Updates:

this

Clears:

s

Requires:

0 <= pos and pos <= |this|

Ensures:

this = #this[0, pos) * #s * #this[pos, |#this|)

extract

void extract(int pos1,
 int pos2,
 Sequence<T> s)

Removes the substring of this starting at position pos1 and ending at position pos2-1 and puts in it s.

Parameters:

pos1 - the position of the first entry that is extracted

pos2 - the position of the first entry, after the extracted substring, that is not extracted

s - upon return, the extracted substring

Updates:

this

Replaces:

s

Requires:

0 <= pos1 and pos1 <= pos2 and pos2 <= |this|

Ensures:

this = #this[0, pos1) * #this[pos2, |#this|)  and
s = #this[pos1, pos2)
