This post is mostly for Andrei, but I don't think private emails are
good for this. I suggest to move the set-related functions of
std.algorithm to a different module, because:
1) They are tied to a specific representation of sets (sorted unique
InputRanges), so if I have a BitSet, HashSet, ApproximateBloomSet,
etc, they don't work (they can work with a SearchTreeSet).
2) I think there are too many names/functions in std.algorithm, and
their purpose is a bit too much mixed (and currently algorithm.d
module is 173 kB).
I don't know what can be a good name for such new module,
sorted_input_range_set is (I think) descriptive, but a bit too much
long :-)
Bye, bearophile
That's a good idea, particularly in wake of the fact that std.algorithm
has grown quite large.
I think a good module name would be std.sort. You can put the sort
function as well as functions related to sorted ranges in it.
