Class ResizableDoubleArray

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable

    public class ResizableDoubleArray
    extends Object
    implements Serializable
    A variable length primitive double array implementation that automatically handles expanding and contracting its internal storage array as elements are added and removed.

    The internal storage array starts with capacity determined by the initialCapacity property, which can be set by the constructor. The default initial capacity is 16. Adding elements using addElement(double) appends elements to the end of the array. When there are no open entries at the end of the internal storage array, the array is expanded. The size of the expanded array depends on the expansionMode and expansionFactor properties. The expansionMode determines whether the size of the array is multiplied by the expansionFactor (ResizableDoubleArray.ExpansionMode.MULTIPLICATIVE) or if the expansion is additive (ResizableDoubleArray.ExpansionMode.ADDITIVE -- expansionFactor storage locations added). The default expansionMode is MULTIPLICATIVE and the default expansionFactor is 2.

    The addElementRolling(double) method adds a new element to the end of the internal storage array and adjusts the "usable window" of the internal array forward by one position (effectively making what was the second element the first, and so on). Repeated activations of this method (or activation of discardFrontElements(int)) will effectively orphan the storage locations at the beginning of the internal storage array. To reclaim this storage, each time one of these methods is activated, the size of the internal storage array is compared to the number of addressable elements (the numElements property) and if the difference is too large, the internal array is contracted to size numElements + 1. The determination of when the internal storage array is "too large" depends on the expansionMode and contractionFactor properties. If the expansionMode is MULTIPLICATIVE, contraction is triggered when the ratio between storage array length and numElements exceeds contractionFactor. If the expansionMode is ADDITIVE, the number of excess storage locations is compared to contractionFactor.

    To avoid cycles of expansions and contractions, the expansionFactor must not exceed the contractionFactor. Constructors and mutators for both of these properties enforce this requirement, throwing a MathIllegalArgumentException if it is violated.

    Note: this class is NOT thread-safe.

        Adds an element to the end of the array and removes the first element in the array. Returns the discarded first element.

        The effect is similar to a push operation in a FIFO queue.

        Example: If the array contains the elements 1, 2, 3, 4 (in that order) and addElementRolling(5) is invoked, the result is an array containing the entries 2, 3, 4, 5 and the value returned is 1.

        Parameters:

      • discardFrontElements

        public void discardFrontElements​(int i)
                                  throws MathIllegalArgumentException
        Discards the i initial elements of the array.

        For example, if the array contains the elements 1,2,3,4, invoking discardFrontElements(2) will cause the first two elements to be discarded, leaving 3,4 in the array.

        Parameters:
        i - the number of elements to discard from the front of the array
        Throws:
        MathIllegalArgumentException - if i is greater than numElements.

                                       throws MathIllegalArgumentException
        Discards the i last elements of the array.

        For example, if the array contains the elements 1,2,3,4, invoking discardMostRecentElements(2) will cause the last two elements to be discarded, leaving 1,2 in the array.

        Parameters:
        i - the number of elements to discard from the end of the array

        MathIllegalArgumentException - if i is greater than numElements.
      • expand

        protected void expand()
        Expands the internal storage array using the expansion factor.

        If expansionMode is set to MULTIPLICATIVE, the new array size will be internalArray.length * expansionFactor. If expansionMode is set to ADDITIVE, the length after expansion will be internalArray.length + expansionFactor.

      • getContractionCriterion

        public double getContractionCriterion()
        The contraction criterion defines when the internal array will contract to store only the number of elements in the element array.

        If the expansionMode is MULTIPLICATIVE, contraction is triggered when the ratio between storage array length and numElements exceeds contractionFactor. If the expansionMode is ADDITIVE, the number of excess storage locations is compared to contractionFactor.

        Returns:
        the contraction criterion used to reclaim memory.
      • getElement

        public double getElement​(int index)

        public double[] getElements()
        Returns a double array containing the elements of this ResizableArray.

        This method returns a copy, not a reference to the underlying array, so that changes made to the returned array have no effect on this ResizableArray.

        Returns:
        the double array.
      • getExpansionFactor

        public double getExpansionFactor()
        The expansion factor controls the size of a new array when an array needs to be expanded.

        The expansionMode determines whether the size of the array is multiplied by the expansionFactor (MULTIPLICATIVE) or if the expansion is additive (ADDITIVE -- expansionFactor storage locations added). The default expansionMode is MULTIPLICATIVE and the default expansionFactor is 2.0.

        Returns:
        the expansion factor of this expandable double array
      • getExpansionMode

        public ResizableDoubleArray.ExpansionMode getExpansionMode()

        the length of the internal array.
      • getNumElements

        public int getNumElements()

        the number of elements.
      • getArrayRef

        protected double[] getArrayRef()
        Provides direct access to the internal storage array. Please note that this method returns a reference to this object's storage array, not a copy.

        To correctly address elements of the array, the "start index" is required (available via the getStartIndex method.

        This method should only be used to avoid copying the internal array. The returned value must be used for reading only; other uses could lead to this object becoming inconsistent.

        The getElements() method has no such limitation since it returns a copy of this array's addressable elements.

        Returns:
        the internal storage array used by this object.
      • getStartIndex

        protected int getStartIndex()
        Returns the "start index" of the internal array. This index is the position of the first addressable element in the internal storage array.

        The addressable elements in the array are at indices contained in the interval [getStartIndex(), getStartIndex() + getNumElements() - 1].

        Returns:
        the start index.

        Sets the element at the specified index.

        If the specified index is greater than getNumElements() - 1, the numElements property is increased to index +1 and additional storage is allocated (if necessary) for the new element and all (uninitialized) elements between the new element and the previous end of the array).

        Parameters:
        index - index to store a value in
        value - value to store at the specified index
        Throws:
        ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - if index < 0.
