array-trie

A trie data structure for arrays instead of strings. There are already many of these on npm, but this is the first one that operates on arrays instead of strings. Inputs can also be specified as 1D ndarrays.

Example

var createTrie = require("array-trie")

var trie = createTrie()

trie.set([1,2,3], 1)
trie.set([1,2], 2)
trie.set([2,5,6], 3)

console.log(trie.get([1,2,3]))
console.log(trie.get([2,5,6]))
console.log(trie.get([1,1,1]))

//Also works if inputs are 1D ndarrays
var ndarray = require("ndarray")
trie.set(ndarray([1,2,3,4]), 5)

console.log(trie.get(ndarray([1,2])))

Install

npm install array-trie

API

var createTrie = require("array-trie")

var trie = createTrie()

Creates an empty trie data structure

Inserts string into trie with value of value, or updates the value of string if already set.

• string is the string to insert
• value is the value to assign to the string

• string is an array of primitive types to search
