<h1>Unordered Array</h1>
|
|
<h2><code>loop.collection.UnorderedArray</code></h2><br>
|
|
<p>Class of objects that store a sequence of values as a Lua array but removes the elements from any position without shifting the following elements.
|
|
However it does not guarantee the order the values are stored in the array.
|
|
This class is useful for storing efficiently a sequence of values that may be iterated in any order and the number of elements varies constantly during interation.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Behaves like an ordinary Lua array but provides an operation that removes an element at given position by replacing it with the last element of the array and then frees the last position.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Behavior</h2>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Methods</h3>
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
|
|
<dt><code><b>add</b>(value)</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
Adds value <code>value</code> to the end of the array.
|
|
Equivalent to <code>self[#self + 1] = element</code>.
|
|
</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt><code><b>remove</b>(index)</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
Replaces the element at position <code>index</code> with the last element of the array and frees the last position.
|
|
If <code>index</code> is out of the array bounds then the call has no effect.
