(** Association tables over ordered types.
This module implements applicative association tables, also known as
finite maps or dictionaries, given a total ordering function
over the keys.
All operations over maps are purely applicative (no side-effects).
The implementation uses balanced binary trees, and therefore searching
and insertion take time logarithmic in the size of the map.
For instance:
{[
module IntPairs =
struct
type t = int * int
let compare (x0,y0) (x1,y1) =
match Pervasives.compare x0 x1 with
0 -> Pervasives.compare y0 y1
| c -> c
end
module PairsMap = Map.Make(IntPairs)
let m = PairsMap.(empty |> add (0,1) "hello" |> add (1,0) "world")
]}
This creates a new module [PairsMap], with a new type ['a PairsMap.t]
of maps from [int * int] to ['a]. In this example, [m] contains [string]
values so its type is [string PairsMap.t].

val compare : t -> t -> int
(** A total ordering function over the keys.
This is a two-argument function [f] such that
[f e1 e2] is zero if the keys [e1] and [e2] are equal,
[f e1 e2] is strictly negative if [e1] is smaller than [e2],
and [f e1 e2] is strictly positive if [e1] is greater than [e2].
Example: a suitable ordering function is the generic structural
comparison function {!Pervasives.compare}. *)

(** [partition p m] returns a pair of maps [(m1, m2)], where
