Class ImmutableDoubleArray

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable

    @Beta
    @GwtCompatible
    @Immutable
    public final class ImmutableDoubleArray
    extends Object
    implements Serializable
    An immutable array of double values, with an API resembling List.

    Advantages compared to double[]:

    • All the many well-known advantages of immutability (read Effective Java, third edition, Item 17).
    • Has the value-based (not identity-based) equals(java.lang.Object), hashCode(), and toString() behavior you expect.
    • Offers useful operations beyond just get and length, so you don't have to hunt through classes like Arrays and Doubles for them.
    • Supports a copy-free subArray(int, int) view, so methods that accept this type don't need to add overloads that accept start and end indexes.
    • Can be streamed without "breaking the chain": foo.getBarDoubles().stream()....
    • Access to all collection-based utilities via asList() (though at the cost of allocating garbage).

    Disadvantages compared to double[]:

    • Memory footprint has a fixed overhead (about 24 bytes per instance).
    • Some construction use cases force the data to be copied (though several construction APIs are offered that don't).
    • Can't be passed directly to methods that expect double[] (though the most common utilities do have replacements here).
    • Dependency on com.google.common / Guava.

    Advantages compared to ImmutableList <Double>:

    • Improved memory compactness and locality.
    • Can be queried without allocating garbage.
    • Access to DoubleStream features (like DoubleStream.sum()) using stream() instead of the awkward stream().mapToDouble(v -> v).

    Disadvantages compared to ImmutableList<Double>:

    • Can't be passed directly to methods that expect Iterable, Collection, or List (though the most common utilities do have replacements here, and there is a lazy asList() view).

                                              double... rest)
        Returns an immutable array containing the given values, in order.

        The array rest must not be longer than Integer.MAX_VALUE - 1.

      • copyOf

        public static ImmutableDoubleArray copyOf​(double[] values)
        Returns an immutable array containing the given values, in order.
      • builder

        public static ImmutableDoubleArray.Builder builder​(int initialCapacity)
        Returns a new, empty builder for ImmutableDoubleArray instances, sized to hold up to initialCapacity values without resizing. The returned builder is not thread-safe.

        Performance note: When feasible, initialCapacity should be the exact number of values that will be added, if that knowledge is readily available. It is better to guess a value slightly too high than slightly too low. If the value is not exact, the ImmutableDoubleArray that is built will very likely occupy more memory than strictly necessary; to trim memory usage, build using builder.build().trimmed().

      • length

        public int length()
        Returns the number of values in this array.
      • isEmpty

        public boolean isEmpty()
        Returns true if there are no values in this array (length() is zero).
      • get

        public double get​(int index)
        Returns the double value present at the given index.
        Throws:
        IndexOutOfBoundsException - if index is negative, or greater than or equal to length()
      • indexOf

        public int indexOf​(double target)
        Returns the smallest index for which get(int) returns target, or -1 if no such index exists. Values are compared as if by Double.equals(java.lang.Object). Equivalent to asList().indexOf(target).
      • lastIndexOf

        public int lastIndexOf​(double target)
        Returns the largest index for which get(int) returns target, or -1 if no such index exists. Values are compared as if by Double.equals(java.lang.Object). Equivalent to asList().lastIndexOf(target).
      • contains

        public boolean contains​(double target)
        Returns true if target is present at any index in this array. Values are compared as if by Double.equals(java.lang.Object). Equivalent to asList().contains(target).
      • forEach

        public void forEach​(DoubleConsumer consumer)
        Invokes consumer for each value contained in this array, in order.
      • stream

        public DoubleStream stream()
        Returns a stream over the values in this array, in order.
      • toArray

        public double[] toArray()
        Returns a new, mutable copy of this array's values, as a primitive double[].
      • subArray

        public ImmutableDoubleArray subArray​(int startIndex,
                                             int endIndex)
        Returns a new immutable array containing the values in the specified range.

        Performance note: The returned array has the same full memory footprint as this one does (no actual copying is performed). To reduce memory usage, use subArray(start, end).trimmed().

      • asList

        public List<DoubleasList()
        Returns an immutable view of this array's values as a List; note that double values are boxed into Double instances on demand, which can be very expensive. The returned list should be used once and discarded. For any usages beyond that, pass the returned list to ImmutableList.copyOf and use that list instead.
      • trimmed

        public ImmutableDoubleArray trimmed()
        Returns an immutable array containing the same values as this array. This is logically a no-op, and in some circumstances this itself is returned. However, if this instance is a subArray(int, int) view of a larger array, this method will copy only the appropriate range of values, resulting in an equivalent array with a smaller memory footprint.
