Mojo struct

InlineArray

A fixed-size sequence of size homogeneous elements where size is a constant expression.

Parameters​

  • ​ElementType (CollectionElementNew): The type of the elements in the array.
  • ​size (Int): The size of the array.
  • ​run_destructors (Bool): Whether to run destructors on the elements. Defaults to False for backwards compatibility reasons only. Eventually this will default to True and/or the parameter will be removed to unconditionally run destructors on the elements.

Aliases​

  • type = array<#lit.struct.extract<:@stdlib::@builtin::@int::@Int size, "value">, !kgen.paramref<:trait<@stdlib::@builtin::@value::@CollectionElementNew> ElementType>>:

Implemented traits​

AnyType, Copyable, ExplicitlyCopyable, Movable, Sized

Methods​

__init__​

__init__(inout self: Self)

This constructor will always cause a compile time error if used. It is used to steer users away from uninitialized memory.

__init__(inout self: Self, *, unsafe_uninitialized: Bool)

Create an InlineArray with uninitialized memory.

Note that this is highly unsafe and should be used with caution.

We recommend to use the InlineList instead if all the objects are not available when creating the array.

If despite those workarounds, one still needs an uninitialized array, it is possible with:

var uninitialized_array = InlineArray[Int, 10](unsafe_uninitialized=True)
var uninitialized_array = InlineArray[Int, 10](unsafe_uninitialized=True)

Args:

  • ​unsafe_uninitialized (Bool): A boolean to indicate if the array should be initialized. Always set to True (it's not actually used inside the constructor).

__init__(inout self: Self, *, owned unsafe_assume_initialized: InlineArray[UnsafeMaybeUninitialized[ElementType], size, 0])

Constructs an InlineArray from an InlineArray of UnsafeMaybeUninitialized.

Calling this function assumes that all elements in the input array are initialized.

If the elements of the input array are not initialized, the behavior is undefined, even if ElementType is valid for every possible bit pattern (e.g. Int or Float).

Args:

  • ​unsafe_assume_initialized (InlineArray[UnsafeMaybeUninitialized[ElementType], size, 0]): The array of UnsafeMaybeUninitialized elements.

__init__(inout self: Self, fill: ElementType)

Constructs an empty array where each element is the supplied fill.

Args:

  • ​fill (ElementType): The element to fill each index.

__init__(inout self: Self, owned *elems: ElementType)

Constructs an array given a set of arguments.

Args:

  • ​*elems (ElementType): The element types.

__init__(inout self: Self, *, owned storage: VariadicListMem[elt_is_mutable, ElementType, lifetime])

Construct an array from a low-level internal representation.

Args:

  • ​storage (VariadicListMem[elt_is_mutable, ElementType, lifetime]): The variadic list storage to construct from.

__init__(inout self: Self, *, other: Self)

Explicitly copy the provided value.

Args:

  • ​other (Self): The value to copy.

__copyinit__​

__copyinit__(inout self: Self, other: Self)

Copy construct the array.

Args:

  • ​other (Self): The array to copy.

__del__​

__del__(owned self: Self)

Deallocate the array.

__getitem__​

__getitem__(ref [self_is_lifetime] self: Self, idx: Int) -> ref [_] ElementType

Get a Reference to the element at the given index.

Args:

  • ​idx (Int): The index of the item.

Returns:

A reference to the item at the given index.

__getitem__[idx: Int](ref [self_is_lifetime] self: Self) -> ref [_] ElementType

Get a Reference to the element at the given index.

Parameters:

  • ​idx (Int): The index of the item.

Returns:

A reference to the item at the given index.

__contains__​

__contains__[T: EqualityComparableCollectionElement, //](self: Self, value: T) -> Bool

Verify if a given value is present in the array.

from collections import InlineArray
var x = InlineArray[Int, 3](1,2,3)
if 3 in x: print("x contains 3")
from collections import InlineArray
var x = InlineArray[Int, 3](1,2,3)
if 3 in x: print("x contains 3")

Parameters:

  • ​T (EqualityComparableCollectionElement): The type of the elements in the array. Must implement the traits EqualityComparable and CollectionElement.

Args:

  • ​value (T): The value to find.

Returns:

True if the value is contained in the array, False otherwise.

__len__​

__len__(self: Self) -> Int

Returns the length of the array. This is a known constant value.

Returns:

The size of the array.

unsafe_get​

unsafe_get(ref [self_is_lifetime] self: Self, idx: Int) -> ref [_] ElementType

Get a reference to an element of self without checking index bounds.

Users should opt for __getitem__ instead of this method as it is unsafe.

Note that there is no wraparound for negative indices. Using negative indices is considered undefined behavior.

Args:

  • ​idx (Int): The index of the element to get.

Returns:

A reference to the element at the given index.

unsafe_ptr​

unsafe_ptr(self: Self) -> UnsafePointer[ElementType, 0, 0, alignof[::AnyType,__mlir_type.!kgen.target]() if triple_is_nvidia_cuda() else 1]

Get an UnsafePointer to the underlying array.

That pointer is unsafe but can be used to read or write to the array. Be careful when using this. As opposed to a pointer to a List, this pointer becomes invalid when the InlineArray is moved.

Make sure to refresh your pointer every time the InlineArray is moved.

Returns:

An UnsafePointer to the underlying array.
