Mojo module

string_slice

The StringSlice type implementation for efficient string operations.

This module provides the StringSlice type, which is a lightweight view into string data that enables zero-copy string operations. StringSlice is designed for high-performance string manipulation while maintaining memory safety and UTF-8 awareness.

Key Features:

Zero-copy string views and operations
UTF-8 aware string slicing and manipulation
Memory-safe string operations
Efficient string comparison and search
Unicode-aware string operations

The StringSlice type is particularly useful for:

High-performance string operations without copying
Efficient string parsing and tokenization
Memory-safe string manipulation
Unicode-aware text processing

Example: ```mojo

# Create a string slice
var text = StringSlice("Hello, 世界")

# Zero-copy slicing
var hello = text[0:5] # Hello

# Unicode-aware operations
var world = text[7:13]  # "世界"

# String comparison
if text.startswith("Hello"):
    print("Found greeting")
```
# Create a string slice
var text = StringSlice("Hello, 世界")

# Zero-copy slicing
var hello = text[0:5] # Hello

# Unicode-aware operations
var world = text[7:13]  # "世界"

# String comparison
if text.startswith("Hello"):
    print("Found greeting")
```

Aliases

StaticString = StringSlice[StaticConstantOrigin]: An immutable static string slice.

Structs

CodepointsIter: Iterator over the Codepoints in a string slice, constructed by StringSlice.codepoints().
CodepointSliceIter: Iterator for StringSlice over substring slices containing a single Unicode codepoint.
StringSlice: A non-owning view to encoded string data.

Functions

get_static_string: Form a StaticString from compile-time StringSlice values. This guarantees that the returned string is compile-time constant in static memory. It also guarantees that there is a 'nul' zero byte at the end, which is not included in the returned range.
