[−][src]Crate moveslice
This crate contains a single function moveslice
. Its purpose
is to move a chunk within a slice around. It only uses safe functions,
and acts efficiently by using the
split_at_mut
and
rotate_left
/
rotate_right
functions.
Examples:
use moveslice::moveslice; let mut arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]; // The following moves the slice 3..6 to index 1. // In effect, it moves [4,5,6] over to where [2] is. moveslice(&mut arr, (3,6), 1); assert_eq!(arr, [1,4,5,6,2,3,7,8,9]); // The following moves the slice 3..6 to index 6. // In effect, it moves [6,2,3] over to where [7] is. moveslice(&mut arr, (3,6), 6); assert_eq!(arr, [1,4,5,7,8,9,6,2,3]); // The following attempts to move the slice beyond boundaries. // The index given is 7, which exists in the array, but the // last element of the chunk will not fit (7 + 3 = 10 > 9). // Therefore, the following should fail. let result = moveslice(&mut arr, (3,6), 7); // You could pass the destination as the same value as chunk.0. // However this would mean nothing is moved. // Since it's not technically an error however, only a warning is logged. moveslice(&mut arr, (0,3), 0);
