The Ix class is used to map a contiguous subrange of values in
a type onto integers. It is used primarily for array indexing
(see the array package).
The first argument (l,u) of each of these operations is a pair
specifying the lower and upper bounds of a contiguous subrange of values.
An implementation is entitled to assume the following laws about these
operations:
- inRange (l,u) i == elem i (range (l,u))
- range (l,u) !! index (l,u) i == i, when inRange (l,u) i
- map (index (l,u)) (range (l,u))) == [0..rangeSize (l,u)-1]
- rangeSize (l,u) == length (range (l,u))
Minimal complete instance: range, index and inRange.
| | Methods | | The list of values in the subrange defined by a bounding pair.
| | | The position of a subscript in the subrange.
| | | Returns True the given subscript lies in the range defined
the bounding pair.
| | | The size of the subrange defined by a bounding pair.
