Struct std::collections::linked_list::LinkedList

1.0.0 · source ·
pub struct LinkedList<T, A = Global>
where A: Allocator,
{ /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A doubly-linked list with owned nodes.

The LinkedList allows pushing and popping elements at either end in constant time.

A LinkedList with a known list of items can be initialized from an array:

use std::collections::LinkedList;

let list = LinkedList::from([1, 2, 3]);

NOTE: It is almost always better to use Vec or VecDeque because array-based containers are generally faster, more memory efficient, and make better use of CPU cache.

Implementations§

impl<T> LinkedList<T>

1.0.0 (const: 1.39.0) · source

pub const fn new() -> LinkedList<T>

Creates an empty LinkedList.

§Examples
use std::collections::LinkedList;

let list: LinkedList<u32> = LinkedList::new();
1.0.0 · source

pub fn append(&mut self, other: &mut LinkedList<T>)

Moves all elements from other to the end of the list.

This reuses all the nodes from other and moves them into self. After this operation, other becomes empty.

This operation should compute in O(1) time and O(1) memory.

§Examples
use std::collections::LinkedList;

let mut list1 = LinkedList::new();
list1.push_back('a');

let mut list2 = LinkedList::new();
list2.push_back('b');
list2.push_back('c');

list1.append(&mut list2);

let mut iter = list1.iter();
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&'a'));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&'b'));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&'c'));
assert!(iter.next().is_none());

assert!(list2.is_empty());

Removes the element at the given index and returns it.

This operation should compute in O(n) time.

§Panics

§Examples
#![feature(linked_list_remove)]
use std::collections::LinkedList;

let mut d = LinkedList::new();

d.push_front(1);
d.push_front(2);

pub fn retain<F>(&mut self, f: F)
where F: FnMut(&T) -> bool,

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (linked_list_retain #114135)

Retains only the elements specified by the predicate.

In other words, remove all elements e for which f(&e) returns false. This method operates in place, visiting each element exactly once in the original order, and preserves the order of the retained elements.

§Examples
#![feature(linked_list_retain)]
use std::collections::LinkedList;

let mut d = LinkedList::new();

d.push_front(1);
d.push_front(2);
d.push_front(3);

d.retain(|&x| x % 2 == 0);

assert_eq!(d.pop_front(), Some(2));
assert_eq!(d.pop_front(), None);

Because the elements are visited exactly once in the original order, external state may be used to decide which elements to keep.

#![feature(linked_list_retain)]
use std::collections::LinkedList;

let mut d = LinkedList::new();

d.push_front(1);
d.push_front(2);
d.push_front(3);

let keep = [false, true, false];
let mut iter = keep.iter();
d.retain(|_| *iter.next().unwrap());
assert_eq!(d.pop_front(), Some(2));
assert_eq!(d.pop_front(), None);
source

pub fn retain_mut<F>(&mut self, f: F)
where F: FnMut(&mut T) -> bool,

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (linked_list_retain #114135)

Retains only the elements specified by the predicate.

In other words, remove all elements e for which f(&e) returns false. This method operates in place, visiting each element exactly once in the original order, and preserves the order of the retained elements.

§Examples
#![feature(linked_list_retain)]
use std::collections::LinkedList;

let mut d = LinkedList::new();

d.push_front(1);
d.push_front(2);
d.push_front(3);

d.retain_mut(|x| if *x % 2 == 0 {
    *x += 1;
    true
} else {
    false
});
assert_eq!(d.pop_front(), Some(3));
assert_eq!(d.pop_front(), None);
source

pub fn extract_if<F>(&mut self, filter: F) -> ExtractIf<'_, T, F, A>
where F: FnMut(&mut T) -> bool,

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (extract_if #43244)

Creates an iterator which uses a closure to determine if an element should be removed.

If the closure returns true, then the element is removed and yielded. If the closure returns false, the element will remain in the list and will not be yielded by the iterator.

If the returned ExtractIf is not exhausted, e.g. because it is dropped without iterating or the iteration short-circuits, then the remaining elements will be retained. Use extract_if().for_each(drop) if you do not need the returned iterator.

Note that extract_if lets you mutate every element in the filter closure, regardless of whether you choose to keep or remove it.

§Examples

Splitting a list into evens and odds, reusing the original list:

#![feature(extract_if)]
use std::collections::LinkedList;

let mut numbers: LinkedList<u32> = LinkedList::new();
numbers.extend(&[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, 15]);

let evens = numbers.extract_if(|x| *x % 2 == 0).collect::<LinkedList<_>>();
let odds = numbers;

assert_eq!(evens.into_iter().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec![2, 4, 6, 8, 14]);
assert_eq!(odds.into_iter().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec![1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 13, 15]);

impl<T, A> Clone for LinkedList<T, A>
where T: Clone, A: Allocator + Clone,

source§

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &LinkedList<T, A>)

Overwrites the contents of self with a clone of the contents of source.

This method is preferred over simply assigning source.clone() to self, as it avoids reallocation of the nodes of the linked list. Additionally, if the element type T overrides clone_from(), this will reuse the resources of self’s elements as well.
