|
| runSTArray :: Ix i => (forall s . ST s (STArray s i e)) -> Array i e | Source |
|
| A safe way to create and work with a mutable array before returning an
immutable array for later perusal. This function avoids copying
the array before returning it - it uses unsafeFreeze internally, but
this wrapper is a safe interface to that function.
|
|
| Unboxed arrays
|
|
|
A mutable array with unboxed elements, that can be manipulated in
the ST monad. The type arguments are as follows:
- s: the state variable argument for the ST type
- i: the index type of the array (should be an instance of Ix)
- e: the element type of the array. Only certain element types
are supported.
An STUArray will generally be more efficient (in terms of both time
and space) than the equivalent boxed version (STArray)
with the same element type. However, STUArray is strict in its
elements - so -- don't use STUArray if you require the
non-strictness that STArray provides.

| Casts an STUArray with one element type into one with a
different element type. All the elements of the resulting array
are undefined (unless you know what you're doing...).
