A tiny package containing a dict-like data structure with numeric slices as keys.
Project description
Python Slice Map
Slicemap is a MIT licensed library introducing a useful, dictionary-like data structure, similar to normal Python dict, but instead of setting values key by key, you set entire slices.
Features:
- Implemented entirely in Python
- Has only one dependency: sortedcontainers
- Is efficient, it has
O(log(n))
time complexity for insertion and query- Adding new slices might make old ones become redundant
n
correspondes to the maximal number of slices present in SliceMap at a time
- Makes life easier, see applications
Example
>>> from slicemap import SliceMap
>>> sm = SliceMap()
>>> sm[-3:3] = 0.1
>>> sm[6.5:] = "Hello, SliceMap"
>>> sm[0]
0.1
>>> sm[10]
'Hello, SliceMap'
See more examples in Quick Start.
