# Class of mutable array types

class Monad m => MArray a e m where

Class of mutable array types.

An array type has the form `(a i e)` where `a` is the array type constructor (kind `* -> * -> *`), `i` is the index type (a member of the class `Ix`), and `e` is the element type.

The `MArray` class is parameterised over both `a` and `e` (so that instances specialised to certain element types can be defined, in the same way as for `IArray`), and also over the type of the monad, `m`, in which the mutable array will be manipulated.

Minimal complete definition

getBounds, getNumElements, unsafeRead, unsafeWrite

Methods

getBounds :: Ix i => a i e -> m (i, i)

Returns the bounds of the array

newArray :: Ix i => (i, i) -> e -> m (a i e)

Builds a new array, with every element initialised to the supplied value.

newArray_ :: Ix i => (i, i) -> m (a i e)

Builds a new array, with every element initialised to an undefined value. In a monadic context in which operations must be deterministic (e.g. the ST monad), the array elements are initialised to a fixed but undefined value, such as zero.

# The `Ix` class and operations

module Data.Ix

# Constructing mutable arrays

newListArray :: (MArray a e m, Ix i) => (i, i) -> [e] -> m (a i e)

Constructs a mutable array from a list of initial elements. The list gives the elements of the array in ascending order beginning with the lowest index.

# Reading and writing mutable arrays

readArray :: (MArray a e m, Ix i) => a i e -> i -> m e

Read an element from a mutable array

writeArray :: (MArray a e m, Ix i) => a i e -> i -> e -> m ()

Write an element in a mutable array

# Derived arrays

mapArray :: (MArray a e' m, MArray a e m, Ix i) => (e' -> e) -> a i e' -> m (a i e)

Constructs a new array derived from the original array by applying a function to each of the elements.

mapIndices :: (MArray a e m, Ix i, Ix j) => (i, i) -> (i -> j) -> a j e -> m (a i e)

Constructs a new array derived from the original array by applying a function to each of the indices.

# Deconstructing mutable arrays

getElems :: (MArray a e m, Ix i) => a i e -> m [e]

Return a list of all the elements of a mutable array

getAssocs :: (MArray a e m, Ix i) => a i e -> m [(i, e)]

Return a list of all the associations of a mutable array, in index order.

# Conversions between mutable and immutable arrays

freeze :: (Ix i, MArray a e m, IArray b e) => a i e -> m (b i e)

Converts a mutable array (any instance of `MArray`) to an immutable array (any instance of `IArray`) by taking a complete copy of it.

thaw :: (Ix i, IArray a e, MArray b e m) => a i e -> m (b i e)

Converts an immutable array (any instance of `IArray`) into a mutable array (any instance of `MArray`) by taking a complete copy of it.
