Collections and Data Structures
Iteration
Sequential iteration is implemented by the iterate
function. The general for
loop:
for i in iter # or "for i = iter"
# body
end
is translated into:
next = iterate(iter)
while next !== nothing
(i, state) = next
# body
next = iterate(iter, state)
end
The state
object may be anything, and should be chosen appropriately for each iterable type. See the manual section on the iteration interface for more details about defining a custom iterable type.
Base.iterate
— Function.
iterate(iter [, state]) -> Union{Nothing, Tuple{Any, Any}}
Advance the iterator to obtain the next element. If no elements remain, nothing
should be returned. Otherwise, a 2-tuple of the next element and the new iteration state should be returned.
Base.IteratorSize
— Type.
IteratorSize(itertype::Type) -> IteratorSize
Given the type of an iterator, return one of the following values:
SizeUnknown()
if the length (number of elements) cannot be determined in advance.HasLength()
if there is a fixed, finite length.HasShape{N}()
if there is a known length plus a notion of multidimensional shape (as for an array). In this caseN
should give the number of dimensions, and theaxes
function is valid for the iterator.IsInfinite()
if the iterator yields values forever.
The default value (for iterators that do not define this function) is HasLength()
. This means that most iterators are assumed to implement length
.
This trait is generally used to select between algorithms that pre-allocate space for their result, and algorithms that resize their result incrementally.
julia> Base.IteratorSize(1:5)
Base.HasShape{1}()
julia> Base.IteratorSize((2,3))
Base.HasLength()
Base.IteratorEltype
— Type.
IteratorEltype(itertype::Type) -> IteratorEltype
Given the type of an iterator, return one of the following values:
EltypeUnknown()
if the type of elements yielded by the iterator is not known in advance.HasEltype()
if the element type is known, andeltype
would return a meaningful value.
HasEltype()
is the default, since iterators are assumed to implement eltype
.
This trait is generally used to select between algorithms that pre-allocate a specific type of result, and algorithms that pick a result type based on the types of yielded values.

Constructors and Types
Base.AbstractRange
— Type.
AbstractRange{T}
Supertype for ranges with elements of type T
. UnitRange
and other types are subtypes of this.
Base.OrdinalRange
— Type.
OrdinalRange{T, S} <: AbstractRange{T}
Supertype for ordinal ranges with elements of type T
with spacing(s) of type S
. The steps should be always-exact multiples of oneunit
, and T
should be a “discrete” type, which cannot have values smaller than oneunit
. For example, Integer
or Date
types would qualify, whereas Float64
would not (since this type can represent values smaller than oneunit(Float64)
. UnitRange
, StepRange
, and other types are subtypes of this.
Base.AbstractUnitRange
— Type.
AbstractUnitRange{T} <: OrdinalRange{T, T}
Supertype for ranges with a step size of oneunit(T)
with elements of type T
. UnitRange
and other types are subtypes of this.
Base.StepRange
— Type.
StepRange{T, S} <: OrdinalRange{T, S}
Ranges with elements of type T
with spacing of type S
. The step between each element is constant, and the range is defined in terms of a start
and stop
of type T
and a step
of type S
. Neither T
nor S
should be floating point types. The syntax a:b:c
with b > 1
and a
, b
, and c
all integers creates a StepRange
.
Examples
julia> collect(StepRange(1, Int8(2), 10))
5-element Array{Int64,1}:
1
3
5
7
9
julia> typeof(StepRange(1, Int8(2), 10))
StepRange{Int64,Int8}
julia> typeof(1:3:6)
StepRange{Int64,Int64}
Base.UnitRange
— Type.
UnitRange{T<:Real}
A range parameterized by a start
and stop
of type T
, filled with elements spaced by 1
from start
until stop
is exceeded. The syntax a:b
with a
and b
both Integer
s creates a UnitRange
.
Examples
julia> collect(UnitRange(2.3, 5.2))
3-element Array{Float64,1}:
2.3
3.3
4.3
julia> typeof(1:10)
UnitRange{Int64}
Base.LinRange
— Type.
LinRange{T}
A range with len
linearly spaced elements between its start
and stop
. The size of the spacing is controlled by len
, which must be an Int
.
Examples
julia> LinRange(1.5, 5.5, 9)
9-element LinRange{Float64}:
1.5,2.0,2.5,3.0,3.5,4.0,4.5,5.0,5.5
General Collections
Base.isempty
— Function.
isempty(collection) -> Bool
Determine whether a collection is empty (has no elements).
Examples
julia> isempty([])
true
julia> isempty([1 2 3])
false
Base.empty!
— Function.
empty!(collection) -> collection
Remove all elements from a collection
.
Examples
julia> A = Dict("a" => 1, "b" => 2)
Dict{String,Int64} with 2 entries:
"b" => 2
"a" => 1
julia> empty!(A);
julia> A
Dict{String,Int64} with 0 entries
Base.length
— Function.
length(collection) -> Integer
Return the number of elements in the collection.
Use lastindex
to get the last valid index of an indexable collection.
Examples
julia> length(1:5)
5
julia> length([1, 2, 3, 4])
4
julia> length([1 2; 3 4])

Iterable Collections
Base.in
— Function.
in(item, collection) -> Bool
∈(item, collection) -> Bool
∋(collection, item) -> Bool
Determine whether an item is in the given collection, in the sense that it is ==
to one of the values generated by iterating over the collection. Returns a Bool
value, except if item
is missing
or collection
contains missing
but not item
, in which case missing
is returned (three-valued logic, matching the behavior of any
and ==
).
Some collections follow a slightly different definition. For example, Set
s check whether the item isequal
to one of the elements. Dict
s look for key=>value
pairs, and the key is compared using isequal
. To test for the presence of a key in a dictionary, use haskey
or k in keys(dict)
. For these collections, the result is always a Bool
and never missing
.
Examples
julia> a = 1:3:20
1:3:19
julia> 4 in a
true
julia> 5 in a
false
julia> missing in [1, 2]
missing
julia> 1 in [2, missing]
missing
julia> 1 in [1, missing]
true
julia> missing in Set([1, 2])
false
Base.:∉
— Function.
∉(item, collection) -> Bool
∌(collection, item) -> Bool

and ∋
, i.e. checks that item
is not in collection
.
Examples
julia> 1 ∉ 2:4
true
julia> 1 ∉ 1:3
false
Base.eltype
— Function.
eltype(type)
Determine the type of the elements generated by iterating a collection of the given type
. For dictionary types, this will be a Pair{KeyType,ValType}
. The definition eltype(x) = eltype(typeof(x))
is provided for convenience so that instances can be passed instead of types. However the form that accepts a type argument should be defined for new types.
Examples
julia> eltype(fill(1f0, (2,2)))
Float32
julia> eltype(fill(0x1, (2,2)))
UInt8
Base.indexin

applied to elements of itr
.

3-element Array{Int64,1}:
1
3
4
unique(A::AbstractArray; dims::Int)
Return unique regions of A
along dimension dims
.
Examples
julia> A = map(isodd, reshape(Vector(1:8), (2,2,2)))

[:, :, 1] =
true true
false false
Base.unique!
— Function.
unique!(A::AbstractVector)
Remove duplicate items as determined by isequal
, then return the modified A
. unique!
will return the elements of A
in the order that they occur. If you do not care about the order of the returned data, then calling (sort!(A); unique!(A))
will be much more efficient as long as the elements of A
can be sorted.
Examples
julia> unique!([1, 1, 1])
1-element Array{Int64,1}:
1
julia> A = [7, 3, 2, 3, 7, 5];
julia> unique!(A)

6
7
42
Base.allunique
— Function.
allunique(itr) -> Bool

3
julia> allunique([a, a])
false
Base.reduce
— Method.
reduce(op, itr; [init])
Reduce the given collection itr
with the given binary operator op
. If provided, the initial value init
must be a neutral element for op
that will be returned for empty collections. It is unspecified whether init
is used for non-empty collections.
For empty collections, providing init
will be necessary, except for some special cases (e.g. when op
is one of +
, *
, max
, min
, &
, |
) when Julia can determine the neutral element of op
.
Reductions for certain commonly-used operators may have special implementations, and should be used instead: maximum(itr)
, minimum(itr)
, sum(itr)
, prod(itr)
, any(itr)
, all(itr)
.
The associativity of the reduction is implementation dependent. This means that you can’t use non-associative operations like -
because it is undefined whether reduce(-,[1,2,3])
should be evaluated as (1-2)-3
or 1-(2-3)
. Use foldl
or foldr
instead for guaranteed left or right associativity.
Some operations accumulate error. Parallelism will be easier if the reduction can be executed in groups. Future versions of Julia might change the algorithm. Note that the elements are not reordered if you use an ordered collection.
Examples
julia> reduce(*, [2; 3; 4])
24
julia> reduce(*, [2; 3; 4]; init=-1)
-24
Base.foldl
— Method.
foldl(op, itr; [init])
Like reduce
, but with guaranteed left associativity. If provided, the keyword argument init
will be used exactly once. In general, it will be necessary to provide init
to work with empty collections.
Examples
julia> foldl(=>, 1:4)
((1=>2)=>3) => 4
julia> foldl(=>, 1:4; init=0)
(((0=>1)=>2)=>3) => 4
Base.foldr
— Method.
foldr(op, itr; [init])
Like reduce
, but with guaranteed right associativity. If provided, the keyword argument init
will be used exactly once. In general, it will be necessary to provide init
to work with empty collections.
Examples
julia> foldr(=>, 1:4)
1 => (2=>(3=>4))
julia> foldr(=>, 1:4; init=0)
1 => (2=>(3=>(4=>0)))

— Function.
sum(f, itr)

for unsigned integers of less than system word size. For all other arguments, a common return type is found to which all arguments are promoted.
Examples
julia> sum(abs2, [2; 3; 4])

576
prod(itr)
Returns the product of all elements of a collection.
The return type is Int

Base.foreach
— Function.
foreach(f, c...) -> Nothing
Call function f
on each element of iterable c
. For multiple iterable arguments, f
is called elementwise. foreach
should be used instead of map
when the results of f
are not needed, for example in foreach(println, array)
.
Examples
julia> a = 1:3:7;
julia> foreach(x -> println(x^2), a)
1
16
49
Base.map
— Function.
map(f, c...) -> collection

by applying f
to each element. For multiple collection arguments, apply f
elementwise.
See also: mapslices

, but stores the result in destination
rather than a new collection. destination
must be at least as large as the first collection.
Examples
julia> a = zeros(3);
julia> map!(x -> x * 2, a, [1, 2, 3]);

Base.mapreduce
— Method.
mapreduce(f, op, itr; [init])
Apply function f
to each element in itr
, and then reduce the result using the binary function op
. If provided, init
must be a neutral element for op
that will be returned for empty collections. It is unspecified whether init
is used for non-empty collections. In general, it will be necessary to provide init
to work with empty collections.
mapreduce
is functionally equivalent to calling reduce(op, map(f, itr); init=init)
, but will in general execute faster since no intermediate collection needs to be created. See documentation for reduce
and map
.
Examples
julia> mapreduce(x->x^2, +, [1:3;]) # == 1 + 4 + 9
14
The associativity of the reduction is implementation-dependent. Additionally, some implementations may reuse the return value of f
for elements that appear multiple times in itr
. Use mapfoldl
or mapfoldr
instead for guaranteed left or right associativity and invocation of f
for every value.
Base.mapfoldl
— Method.
mapfoldl(f, op, itr; [init])
Like mapreduce
, but with guaranteed left associativity, as in foldl
. If provided, the keyword argument init
will be used exactly once. In general, it will be necessary to provide init
to work with empty collections.
Base.mapfoldr
— Method.
mapfoldr(f, op, itr; [init])
Like mapreduce
, but with guaranteed right associativity, as in foldr
. If provided, the keyword argument init
will be used exactly once. In general, it will be necessary to provide init
to work with empty collections.

where, for each pair old=>new
in old_new
, all occurrences of old
are replaced by new

Dict

Dictionaries
Dict
is the standard dictionary. Its implementation uses hash
as the hashing function for the key, and isequal
to determine equality. Define these two functions for custom types to override how they are stored in a hash table.
IdDict
is a special hash table where the keys are always object identities.
WeakKeyDict
is a hash table implementation where the keys are weak references to objects, and thus may be garbage collected even when referenced in a hash table. Like Dict
it uses hash
for hashing and isequal
for equality, unlike Dict
it does not convert keys on insertion.
Dict
s can be created by passing pair objects constructed with =>
to a Dict
constructor: Dict("A"=>1, "B"=>2)
. This call will attempt to infer type information from the keys and values (i.e. this example creates a Dict{String, Int64}
). To explicitly specify types use the syntax Dict{KeyType,ValueType}(...)
. For example, Dict{String,Int32}("A"=>1, "B"=>2)
.
Dictionaries may also be created with generators. For example, Dict(i => f(i) for i = 1:10)
.
Given a dictionary D
, the syntax D[x]
returns the value of key x
(if it exists) or throws an error, and D[x] = y
stores the key-value pair x => y
in D
(replacing any existing value for the key x
). Multiple arguments to D[...]
are converted to tuples; for example, the syntax D[x,y]
is equivalent to D[(x,y)]
, i.e. it refers to the value keyed by the tuple (x,y)
.
Base.Dict
— Type.
Dict([itr])
Dict{K,V}()
constructs a hash table with keys of type K
and values of type V
. Keys are compared with isequal
and hashed with hash
.
Given a single iterable argument, constructs a Dict
whose key-value pairs are taken from 2-tuples (key,value)
generated by the argument.
Examples
julia> Dict([("A", 1), ("B", 2)])
Dict{String,Int64} with 2 entries:
"B" => 2
"A" => 1
Alternatively, a sequence of pair arguments may be passed.
julia> Dict("A"=>1, "B"=>2)
Dict{String,Int64} with 2 entries:
"B" => 2
"A" => 1
Base.IdDict
— Type.
IdDict([itr])
IdDict{K,V}()
constructs a hash table using object-id as hash and ===
as equality with keys of type K
and values of type V
.
See Dict
for further help.
Base.WeakKeyDict
— Type.
WeakKeyDict([itr])
WeakKeyDict()
constructs a hash table where the keys are weak references to objects, and thus may be garbage collected even when referenced in a hash table.
See Dict
for further help. Note, unlike Dict
, WeakKeyDict
does not convert keys on insertion.
Base.ImmutableDict
— Type.
ImmutableDict
ImmutableDict is a Dictionary implemented as an immutable linked list, which is optimal for small dictionaries that are constructed over many individual insertions Note that it is not possible to remove a value, although it can be partially overridden and hidden by inserting a new value with the same key
ImmutableDict(KV::Pair)
Create a new entry in the Immutable Dictionary for the key => value pair
- use
(key => value) in dict
to see if this particular combination is in the properties set - use
get(dict, key, default)
to retrieve the most recent value for a particular key

Base.keys
— Function.
keys(iterator)
For an iterator or collection that has keys and values (e.g. arrays and dictionaries), return an iterator over the keys.
Base.values
— Function.
values(iterator)
For an iterator or collection that has keys and values, return an iterator over the values. This function simply returns its argument by default, since the elements of a general iterator are normally considered its “values”.
Examples
julia> d = Dict("a"=>1, "b"=>2);
julia> values(d)
Base.ValueIterator for a Dict{String,Int64} with 2 entries. Values:
2
1
julia> values([2])
1-element Array{Int64,1}:
2
values(a::AbstractDict)
Return an iterator over all values in a collection. collect(values(a))
returns an array of values. Since the values are stored internally in a hash table, the order in which they are returned may vary. But keys(a)
and values(a)
both iterate a
and return the elements in the same order.
Examples
julia> D = Dict('a'=>2, 'b'=>3)
Dict{Char,Int64} with 2 entries:
'a' => 2
'b' => 3
julia> collect(values(D))
2-element Array{Int64,1}:

Base.pairs
— Function.
pairs(collection)
Return an iterator over key => value
pairs for any collection that maps a set of keys to a set of values. This includes arrays, where the keys are the array indices.
pairs(IndexLinear(), A)
pairs(IndexCartesian(), A)
pairs(IndexStyle(A), A)
An iterator that accesses each element of the array A
, returning i => x
, where i
is the index for the element and x = A[i]
. Identical to pairs(A)
, except that the style of index can be selected. Also similar to enumerate(A)
, except i
will be a valid index for A
, while enumerate
always counts from 1 regardless of the indices of A
.
Specifying IndexLinear()
ensures that i
will be an integer; specifying IndexCartesian()
ensures that i
will be a CartesianIndex
; specifying IndexStyle(A)
chooses whichever has been defined as the native indexing style for array A
.
Mutation of the bounds of the underlying array will invalidate this iterator.
Examples
julia> A = ["a" "d"; "b" "e"; "c" "f"];
julia> for (index, value) in pairs(IndexStyle(A), A)
println("$index $value")
end
1 a
2 b
3 c
4 d
5 e
6 f
julia> S = view(A, 1:2, :);
julia> for (index, value) in pairs(IndexStyle(S), S)
println("$index $value")

Base.merge
— Function.
merge(d::AbstractDict, others::AbstractDict...)
