Expand description

The trait indicates the coordinate is discrete This means we can bidirectionally map the range value to 0 to N in which N is the number of distinct values of the range.

This is useful since for a histgoram, this is an abstraction of bucket.

Required Methods

Get the number of element in the range Note: we assume that all the ranged discrete coordinate has finite value

  • returns The number of values in the range

Map a value to the index

Note: This function doesn’t guareentee return None when the value is out of range. The only way to confirm the value is in the range is to examing the return value isn’t larger than self.size.

  • value: The value to map
  • returns The index of the value

Reverse map the index to the value

Note: This function doesn’t guareentee returning None when the index is out of range.

  • value: The index to map
  • returns The value

Provided Methods

Return a iterator that iterates over the all possible values

  • returns The value iterator

Returns the previous value in this range

Normally, it’s based on the from_index and index_of function. But for some of the coord spec, it’s possible that we value faster implementation. If this is the case, we can impelemnet the type specific impl for the previous and next.

  • value: The current value
  • returns: The value piror to current value

Returns the next value in this range

Normally, it’s based on the from_index and index_of function. But for some of the coord spec, it’s possible that we value faster implementation. If this is the case, we can impelemnet the type specific impl for the previous and next.

  • value: The current value
  • returns: The value next to current value
