Seq.Set

Seq which represents a set of values.

Method signature

type Seq.Set<T> extends Seq<T, T>, Collection.Set<T>

Because Seq are often lazy, Seq.Set does not provide the same guarantee of value uniqueness as the concrete Set.

Construction

Always returns a Seq.Set, discarding associated indices or keys.

Method signature

Seq.Set<T>(collection?: Iterable<T> | ArrayLike<T>): Seq.Set<T>

Note: Seq.Set is a conversion function and not a class, and does not use the new keyword during construction.

Static methods

Returns a Seq.Set of the provided values.

Method signature

Seq.Set.of<T>(...values: Array<T>): Seq.Set<T>

Members

Force evaluation

Persistent changes

Sequence algorithms

Returns a new Seq.Set with values passed through a mapper function.

Method signature

map<M>(mapper: (value: T, key: T, iter: this) => M, context?: unknown): Set<M>

Note: map() always returns a new instance, even if it produced the same value at every step.

Flat-maps the Seq, returning a Seq of the same type.

Similar to set.map(...).flatten(true).

Method signature

flatMap<M>(mapper: (value: T, key: T, iter: this) => Iterable<M>, context?: unknown): Seq.Set<M>

Returns a new Set with only the values for which the predicate function returns true.

Note: filter() always returns a new instance, even if it results in not filtering out any values.

Method signature

filter(predicate: (value: T, key: T, iter: this) => boolean, context?: unknown): Seq.Set<T>

Returns a new Set with only the values for which the predicate function returns false.

Method signature

filterNot(predicate: (value: T, key: T, iter: this) => boolean, context?: unknown): Seq.Set<T>

Note: filterNot() always returns a new instance, even if it results in not filtering out any values.

Returns a new Set with the values for which the predicate function returns false and another for which is returns true.

Method signature

partition(predicate: (this: C, value: T, key: T, iter: this) => boolean, context?: C): [Seq.Set<T>, Seq.Set<T>]

Returns a new Collection of the same type which includes the same entries, stably sorted by using a comparator.

Method signature

sort(comparator?: Comparator<T>): OrderedSet<T>

If a comparator is not provided, a default comparator uses < and >.

comparator(valueA, valueB):

  • Returns 0 if the elements should not be swapped.
  • Returns -1 (or any negative number) if valueA comes before valueB
  • Returns 1 (or any positive number) if valueA comes after valueB
  • Alternatively, can return a value of the PairSorting enum type
  • Is pure, i.e. it must always return the same value for the same pair of values.

Note: sort() Always returns a new instance, even if the original was already sorted.

Note: This is always an eager operation.

Like sort, but also accepts a comparatorValueMapper which allows for sorting by more sophisticated means:

Method signature

sortBy<C>(comparatorValueMapper: (value: T, key: T, iter: this) => C, comparator?: Comparator<C>): this & OrderedSet<T>

Note: sortBy() Always returns a new instance, even if the original was already sorted.

Note: This is always an eager operation.

Returns a new Set with the order of the values reversed.

Method signature

reverse(): Set<T>

Returns a Map of Set, grouped by the return value of the grouper function.

Method signature

groupBy<G>(grouper: (value: T, key: T, iter: this) => G, context?: unknown): Map<G, Set<T>>

Note: This is not a lazy operation.

Method signature

equals(other): boolean

Note: This is equivalent to Immutable.is(this, other), but provided to allow for chained expressions.

Computes and returns the hashed identity for this Collection.

The hashCode of a Collection is used to determine potential equality, and is used when adding this to a Set or as a key in a Map, enabling lookup via a different instance.

Method signature

hashCode(): number

If two values have the same hashCode, they are not guaranteed to be equal. If two values have different hashCodes, they must not be equal.

Reading values

Returns the value associated with the provided key, or notSetValue if the Collection does not contain this key.

Note: it is possible a key may be associated with an undefined value, so if notSetValue is not provided and this method returns undefined, that does not guarantee the key was not found.

Method signature

get<NSV>(key: T, notSetValue: NSV): T | NSV
get(key: T): T | undefined

True if a key exists within this Collection, using Immutable.is to determine equality.

Method signature

Creating subsets

Returns a new Set of the same type representing a portion of this Set from start up to but not including end.
