Generally speaking, they implement algorithms more complex or specialized than the ones provided by Tcl itself\. It exports only a single command, __struct::list__\. All functionality provided here can be reached through a subcommand of this command\. # COMMANDS - __::struct::list__ __longestCommonSubsequence__ *sequence1* *sequence2* ?*maxOccurs*? Returns a list of indices into *sequence1* and a corresponding list where each item is an index into *sequence2* of the matching value according to the longest common subsequences algorithm\. If *maxOccurs* is provided, the common subsequence is restricted to elements that occur no more than *maxOccurs* times in *sequence2*\. - __::struct::list__ __longestCommonSubsequence2__ *sequence1 sequence2* ?*maxOccurs*? Returns the longest common subsequence of elements in the two lists *sequence1* and *sequence2*\. If *maxOccurs* is provided, the result is only an approximation, where the longest common subsequence is approximated by first determining the longest common sequence of only those elements that occur no more than *maxOccurs* times in *sequence2*, and then using that result to align the two lists, determining the longest common subsequences of the sublists between the two elements\. The result is the same as for __longestCommonSubsequence__\. - __::struct::list__ __lcsInvert__ *lcsData* *len1* *len2* Takes a description of a longest common subsequence \(*lcsData*\), inverts it, and returns the result\. Inversion means here that as the input describes which parts of the two sequences are identical the output describes the differences instead\. To be fully defined the lengths of the two sequences have to be known and are specified through *len1* and *len2*\. The result is a list where each element describes one chunk of the differences between the two sequences\. This description is a list containing three elements, a type and two pairs of indices into *sequence1* and *sequence2* respectively, in this order\. The type can be one of three values: * __added__ Describes an addition\. I\.e\. items which are missing in *sequence1* can be found in *sequence2*\. The pair of indices into *sequence1* describes where the added range had been expected to be in *sequence1*\. The first index refers to the item just before the added range, and the second index refers to the item just after the added range\. The pair of indices into *sequence2* describes the range of items which has been added to it\. The first index refers to the first item in the range, and the second index refers to the last item in the range\. * __deleted__ Describes a deletion\. I\.e\. items which are in *sequence1* are missing from *sequence2*\. The pair of indices into *sequence1* describes the range of items which has been deleted\. The first index refers to the first item in the range, and the second index refers to the last item in the range\. The pair of indices into *sequence2* describes where the deleted range had been expected to be in *sequence2*\. The first index refers to the item just before the deleted range, and the second index refers to the item just after the deleted range\. * __changed__ Describes a general change\. I\.e a range of items in *sequence1* has been replaced by a different range of items in *sequence2*\. The pair of indices into *sequence1* describes the range of items which has been replaced\. The first index refers to the first item in the range, and the second index refers to the last item in the range\. The pair of indices into *sequence2* describes the range of items replacing the original range\. Again the first index refers to the first item in the range, and the second index refers to the last item in the range\. sequence 1 = {a b r a c a d a b r a} lcs 1 = {1 2 4 5 8 9 10} lcs 2 = {0 1 3 4 5 6 7} sequence 2 = {b r i c a b r a c} Inversion = {{deleted {0 0} {-1 0}} {changed {3 3} {2 2}} {deleted {6 7} {4 5}} {added {10 11} {8 8}}} *Notes:* * An index of __\-1__ in a *deleted* chunk refers to just before the first element of the second sequence\. * Also an index equal to the length of the first sequence in an *added* chunk refers to just behind the end of the sequence\. - __::struct::list__ __lcsInvert2__ *lcs1* *lcs2* *len1* *len2* Similar to __lcsInvert__\. Instead of directly taking the result of a call to __longestCommonSubsequence__ this subcommand expects the indices for the two sequences in two separate lists\. - __::struct::list__ __lcsInvertMerge__ *lcsData* *len1* *len2* Similar to __lcsInvert__\. It returns essentially the same structure as that command, except that it may contain chunks of type __unchanged__ too\. These new chunks describe the parts which are unchanged between the two sequences\. This means that the result of this command describes both the changed and unchanged parts of the two sequences in one structure\. sequence 1 = {a b r a c a d a b r a} lcs 1 = {1 2 4 5 8 9 10} lcs 2 = {0 1 3 4 5 6 7} sequence 2 = {b r i c a b r a c} Inversion/Merge = {{deleted {0 0} {-1 0}} {unchanged {1 2} {0 1}} {changed {3 3} {2 2}} {unchanged {4 5} {3 4}} {deleted {6 7} {4 5}} {unchanged {8 10} {5 7}} {added {10 11} {8 8}}} - __::struct::list__ __lcsInvertMerge2__ *lcs1* *lcs2* *len1* *len2* Similar to __lcsInvertMerge__\. Instead of directly taking the result of a call to __longestCommonSubsequence__ this subcommand expects the indices for the two sequences in two separate lists\. - __::struct::list__ __reverse__ *sequence* The subcommand takes a single *sequence* as argument and returns a new sequence containing the elements of the input sequence in reverse order\. - __::struct::list__ __shuffle__ *list* The subcommand takes a *list* and returns a copy of that list with the elements it contains in random order\. Every possible ordering of elements is equally likely to be generated\. The Fisher\-Yates shuffling algorithm is used internally\. - __::struct::list__ __assign__ *sequence* *varname* ?*varname*?\.\.\. The subcommand assigns the first __n__ elements of the input *sequence* to the one or more variables whose names were listed after the sequence, where __n__ is the number of specified variables\. If there are more variables specified than there are elements in the *sequence* the empty string will be assigned to the superfluous variables\. If there are more elements in the *sequence* than variable names specified the subcommand returns a list containing the unassigned elements\. Else an empty list is returned\. tclsh> ::struct::list assign {a b c d e} foo bar c d e tclsh> set foo a tclsh> set bar b - __::struct::list__ __flatten__ ?__\-full__? ?__\-\-__? *sequence* The subcommand takes a single *sequence* and returns a new sequence where one level of nesting was removed from the input sequence\. In other words, the sublists in the input sequence are replaced by their elements\. The subcommand will remove any nesting it finds if the option __\-full__ is specified\. tclsh> ::struct::list flatten {1 2 3 {4 5} {6 7} {{8 9}} 10} 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {8 9} 10 tclsh> ::struct::list flatten -full {1 2 3 {4 5} {6 7} {{8 9}} 10} 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 - __::struct::list__ __map__ *sequence* *cmdprefix* The subcommand takes a *sequence* to operate on and a command prefix \(*cmdprefix*\) specifying an operation, applies the command prefix to each element of the sequence and returns a sequence consisting of the results of that application\. The command prefix will be evaluated with a single word appended to it\. The evaluation takes place in the context of the caller of the subcommand\. tclsh> # squaring all elements in a list tclsh> proc sqr {x} {expr {$x*$x}} tclsh> ::struct::list map {1 2 3 4 5} sqr 1 4 9 16 25 tclsh> # Retrieving the second column from a matrix tclsh> # given as list of lists. tclsh> proc projection {n list} {::lindex $list $n} tclsh> ::struct::list map {{a b c} {1 2 3} {d f g}} {projection 1} b 2 f - __::struct::list__ __mapfor__ *var* *sequence* *script* The subcommand takes a *sequence* to operate on and a tcl *script*, applies the script to each element of the sequence and returns a sequence consisting of the results of that application\. The script will be evaluated as is, and has access to the current list element through the specified iteration variable *var*\. The evaluation takes place in the context of the caller of the subcommand\. tclsh> # squaring all elements in a list tclsh> ::struct::list mapfor x {1 2 3 4 5} { expr {$x * $x} } 1 4 9 16 25 tclsh> # Retrieving the second column from a matrix tclsh> # given as list of lists. tclsh> ::struct::list mapfor x {{a b c} {1 2 3} {d f g}} { lindex $x 1 } b 2 f - __::struct::list__ __filter__ *sequence* *cmdprefix* The subcommand takes a *sequence* to operate on and a command prefix \(*cmdprefix*\) specifying an operation, applies the command prefix to each element of the sequence and returns a sequence consisting of all elements of the *sequence* for which the command prefix returned __true__\. In other words, this command filters out all elements of the input *sequence* which fail the test the *cmdprefix* represents, and returns the remaining elements\. The command prefix will be evaluated with a single word appended to it\. The evaluation takes place in the context of the caller of the subcommand\. tclsh> # removing all odd numbers from the input tclsh> proc even {x} {expr {($x % 2) == 0}} tclsh> ::struct::list filter {1 2 3 4 5} even 2 4 *Note:* The __filter__ is a specialized application of __fold__ where the result is extended with the current item or not, depending o nthe result of the test\. - __::struct::list__ __filterfor__ *var* *sequence* *expr* The subcommand takes a *sequence* to operate on and a tcl expression \(*expr*\) specifying a condition, applies the conditionto each element of the sequence and returns a sequence consisting of all elements of the *sequence* for which the expression returned __true__\. In other words, this command filters out all elements of the input *sequence* which fail the test the condition *expr* represents, and returns the remaining elements\. The expression will be evaluated as is, and has access to the current list element through the specified iteration variable *var*\. The evaluation takes place in the context of the caller of the subcommand\. tclsh> # removing all odd numbers from the input tclsh> ::struct::list filterfor x {1 2 3 4 5} {($x % 2) == 0} 2 4 - __::struct::list__ __split__ *sequence* *cmdprefix* ?*passVar* *failVar*? This is a variant of method __filter__, see above\. Instead of returning just the elements passing the test we get lists of both passing and failing elements\. If no variable names are specified then the result of the command will be a list containing the list of passing elements, and the list of failing elements, in this order\. Otherwise the lists of passing and failing elements are stored into the two specified variables, and the result will be a list containing two numbers, the number of elements passing the test, and the number of elements failing, in this order\. The interface to the test is the same as used by __filter__\. - __::struct::list__ __fold__ *sequence* *initialvalue* *cmdprefix* The subcommand takes a *sequence* to operate on, an arbitrary string *initial value* and a command prefix \(*cmdprefix*\) specifying an operation\. The command prefix will be evaluated with two words appended to it\. The second of these words will always be an element of the sequence\. The evaluation takes place in the context of the caller of the subcommand\. It then reduces the sequence into a single value through repeated application of the command prefix and returns that value\. This reduction is done by * __1__ Application of the command to the initial value and the first element of the list\. * __2__ Application of the command to the result of the last call and the second element of the list\. * __\.\.\.__ * __i__ Application of the command to the result of the last call and the __i__'th element of the list\. * __\.\.\.__ * __end__ Application of the command to the result of the last call and the last element of the list\. The result of this call is returned as the result of the subcommand\. tclsh> # summing the elements in a list. tclsh> proc + {a b} {expr {$a + $b}} tclsh> ::struct::list fold {1 2 3 4 5} 0 + 15 - __::struct::list__ __shift__ *listvar* The subcommand takes the list contained in the variable named by *listvar* and shifts it down one element\. After the call *listvar* will contain a list containing the second to last elements of the input list\. The first element of the ist is returned as the result of the command\. Shifting the empty list does nothing\. - __::struct::list__ __iota__ *n* The subcommand returns a list containing the integer numbers in the range __\[0,n\)__\. The element at index __i__ of the list contain the number __i__\. For "*n* == __0__" an empty list will be returned\. - __::struct::list__ __equal__ *a* *b* The subcommand compares the two lists *a* and *b* for equality\. In other words, they have to be of the same length and have to contain the same elements in the same order\. If an element is a list the same definition of equality applies recursively\. A boolean value will be returned as the result of the command\. This value will be __true__ if the two lists are equal, and __false__ else\. - __::struct::list__ __repeat__ *size* *element1* ?*element2* *element3*\.\.\.? The subcommand creates a list of length "*size* \* *number of elements*" by repeating *size* times the sequence of elements *element1* *element2* *\.\.\.*\. *size* must be a positive integer, *element*__n__ can be any Tcl value\. Note that __repeat 1 arg \.\.\.__ is identical to __list arg \.\.\.__, though the *arg* is required with __repeat__\. *Examples:* tclsh> ::struct::list repeat 3 a a a a tclsh> ::struct::list repeat 3 [::struct::list repeat 3 0] {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} tclsh> ::struct::list repeat 3 a b c a b c a b c a b c tclsh> ::struct::list repeat 3 [::struct::list repeat 2 a] b c {a a} b c {a a} b c {a a} b c - __::struct::list__ __repeatn__ *value* *size*\.\.\. The subcommand creates a \(nested\) list containing the *value* in all positions\. The exact size and degree of nesting is determined by the *size* arguments, all of which have to be integer numbers greater than or equal to zero\. A single argument *size* which is a list of more than one element will be treated as if more than argument *size* was specified\. If only one argument *size* is present the returned list will not be nested, of length *size* and contain *value* in all positions\. If more than one *size* argument is present the returned list will be nested, and of the length specified by the last *size* argument given to it\. The elements of that list are defined as the result of __Repeat__ for the same arguments, but with the last *size* value removed\. An empty list will be returned if no *size* arguments are present\. tclsh> ::struct::list repeatn 0 3 4 {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} tclsh> ::struct::list repeatn 0 {3 4} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} tclsh> ::struct::list repeatn 0 {3 4 5} {{0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0}} {{0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0}} {{0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0}} {{0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0}} {{0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0} {0 0 0}} - __::struct::list__ __dbJoin__ ?__\-inner__|__\-left__|__\-right__|__\-full__? ?__\-keys__ *varname*? \{*keycol* *table*\}\.\.\. The method performs a table join according to relational algebra\. The execution of any of the possible outer join operation is triggered by the presence of either option __\-left__, __\-right__, or __\-full__\. If none of these options is present a regular inner join will be performed\. This can also be triggered by specifying __\-inner__\. The various possible join operations are explained in detail in section [TABLE JOIN](#section4)\. If the __\-keys__ is present its argument is the name of a variable to store the full list of found keys into\. Depending on the exact nature of the input table and the join mode the output table may not contain all the keys by default\. In such a case the caller can declare a variable for this information and then insert it into the output table on its own, as she will have more information about the placement than this command\. What is left to explain is the format of the arguments\. The *keycol* arguments are the indices of the columns in the tables which contain the key values to use for the joining\. Each argument applies to the table following immediately after it\. The columns are counted from __0__, which references the first column\. The table associated with the column index has to have at least *keycol*\+1 columns\. An error will be thrown if there are less\. The *table* arguments represent a table or matrix of rows and columns of values\. We use the same representation as generated and consumed by the methods __get rect__ and __set rect__ of __[matrix](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#matrix)__ objects\. In other words, each argument is a list, representing the whole matrix\. Its elements are lists too, each representing a single rows of the matrix\. The elements of the row\-lists are the column values\. The table resulting from the join operation is returned as the result of the command\. We use the same representation as described above for the input *table*s\. - __::struct::list__ __dbJoinKeyed__ ?__\-inner__|__\-left__|__\-right__|__\-full__? ?__\-keys__ *varname*? *table*\.\.\. The operations performed by this method are the same as described above for __dbJoin__\. The only difference is in the specification of the keys to use\. Instead of using column indices separate from the table here the keys are provided within the table itself\. The row elements in each *table* are not the lists of column values, but a two\-element list where the second element is the regular list of column values and the first element is the key to use\. - __::struct::list__ __swap__ *listvar* *i* *j* The subcommand exchanges the elements at the indices *i* and *j* in the list stored in the variable named by *listvar*\. The list is modified in place, and also returned as the result of the subcommand\. - __::struct::list__ __firstperm__ *list* This subcommand returns the lexicographically first permutation of the input *list*\. - __::struct::list__ __nextperm__ *perm* This subcommand accepts a permutation of a set of elements \(provided by *perm*\) and returns the next permutatation in lexicographic sequence\. The algorithm used here is by Donal E\. Knuth, see section [REFERENCES](#section5) for details\. - __::struct::list__ __permutations__ *list* This subcommand returns a list containing all permutations of the input *list* in lexicographic order\. - __::struct::list__ __foreachperm__ *var* *list* *body* This subcommand executes the script *body* once for each permutation of the specified *list*\. The permutations are visited in lexicographic order, and the variable *var* is set to the permutation for which *body* is currently executed\. The result of the loop command is the empty string\. # LONGEST COMMON SUBSEQUENCE AND FILE COMPARISON The __longestCommonSubsequence__ subcommand forms the core of a flexible system for doing differential comparisons of files, similar to the capability offered by the Unix command __[diff](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#diff)__\. While this procedure is quite rapid for many tasks of file comparison, its performance degrades severely if *sequence2* contains many equal elements \(as, for instance, when using this procedure to compare two files, a quarter of whose lines are blank\. This drawback is intrinsic to the algorithm used \(see the Reference for details\)\. One approach to dealing with the performance problem that is sometimes effective in practice is arbitrarily to exclude elements that appear more than a certain number of times\. This number is provided as the *maxOccurs* parameter\. If frequent lines are excluded in this manner, they will not appear in the common subsequence that is computed; the result will be the longest common subsequence of infrequent elements\. The procedure __longestCommonSubsequence2__ implements this heuristic\. It functions as a wrapper around __longestCommonSubsequence__; it computes the longest common subsequence of infrequent elements, and then subdivides the subsequences that lie between the matches to approximate the true longest common subsequence\. # TABLE JOIN This is an operation from relational algebra for relational databases\. The easiest way to understand the regular inner join is that it creates the cartesian product of all the tables involved first and then keeps only all those rows in the resulting table for which the values in the specified key columns are equal to each other\. Implementing this description naively, i\.e\. as described above will generate a *huge* intermediate result\. To avoid this the cartesian product and the filtering of row are done at the same time\. What is required is a fast way to determine if a key is present in a table\. In a true database this is done through indices\. Here we use arrays internally\. An *outer* join is an extension of the inner join for two tables\. There are three variants of outerjoins, called *left*, *right*, and *full* outer joins\. Their result always contains all rows from an inner join and then some additional rows\. 1. For the left outer join the additional rows are all rows from the left table for which there is no key in the right table\. They are joined to an empty row of the right table to fit them into the result\. 1. For the right outer join the additional rows are all rows from the right table for which there is no key in the left table\. They are joined to an empty row of the left table to fit them into the result\. 1. The full outer join combines both left and right outer join\. In other words, the additional rows are as defined for left outer join, and right outer join, combined\. We extend all the joins from two to __n__ tables \(__n__ > 2\) by executing (...((table1 join table2) join table3) ...) join tableN Examples for all the joins: Inner Join {0 foo} {0 bagel} {0 foo 0 bagel} {1 snarf} inner join {1 snatz} = {1 snarf 1 snatz} {2 blue} {3 driver} Left Outer Join {0 foo} {0 bagel} {0 foo 0 bagel} {1 snarf} left outer join {1 snatz} = {1 snarf 1 snatz} {2 blue} {3 driver} {2 blue {} {}} Right Outer Join {0 foo} {0 bagel} {0 foo 0 bagel} {1 snarf} right outer join {1 snatz} = {1 snarf 1 snatz} {2 blue} {3 driver} {{} {} 3 driver} Full Outer Join {0 foo} {0 bagel} {0 foo 0 bagel} {1 snarf} full outer join {1 snatz} = {1 snarf 1 snatz} {2 blue} {3 driver} {2 blue {} {}} {{} {} 3 driver} # REFERENCES 1.

Attachments can be made by going to the __Edit__ form of the ticket immediately after its creation, and then using the left\-most button in the secondary navigation bar\. # KEYWORDS [Fisher\-Yates](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#fisher\_yates), [assign](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#assign), [common](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#common), [comparison](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#comparison), [diff](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#diff), [differential](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#differential), [equal](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#equal), [equality](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#equality), [filter](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#filter), [first permutation](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#first\_permutation), [flatten](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#flatten), [folding](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#folding), [full outer join](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#full\_outer\_join), [generate permutations](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#generate\_permutations), [inner join](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#inner\_join), [join](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#join), [left outer join](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#left\_outer\_join), [list](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#list), [longest common subsequence](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#longest\_common\_subsequence), [map](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#map), [next permutation](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#next\_permutation), [outer join](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#outer\_join), [permutation](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#permutation), [reduce](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#reduce), [repeating](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#repeating), [repetition](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#repetition), [reshuffle](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#reshuffle), [reverse](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#reverse), [right outer join](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#right\_outer\_join), [shuffle](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#shuffle), [subsequence](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#subsequence), [swapping](\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./index\.md\#swapping) # CATEGORY Data structures # COPYRIGHT Copyright © 2003\-2005 by Kevin B\.
