Detailed Description

Note

The sld_search functions are not yet implemented!

Todo:

Implement sld_search functionality!

This module contains functions related to searching for data.

Function Documentation

void* sld_search_binary	(	void *	data_structure,
		void *	search_criterion,
		SLD_DATA_STRUCTURE	data_structure_type,
		SLD_DATA_TYPE	search_criterion_type
	)

Searches through data with a "divide and conquer" approach.

Parameters

data_structure	a sld_list, sld_map, sld_queue, sld_stack, sld_tree, or sld_vector
search_criterion	the value to search for in the passed data structure
data_structure_type	any type defined by SLD_DATA_STRUCTURE such as sld_data_structure_vector for example
search_criterion_type	any type defined by SLD_DATA_TYPE such as sld_data_type_int for example

Returns

Index, key, or true/false depending on the data structure passed

int index = (int *)sld_search_binary(&vector, "foo", sld_data_structure_vector, sld_data_type_char_pointer);

void* sld_search_linear	(	void *	data_structure,
		void *	search_criterion,
		SLD_DATA_STRUCTURE	data_structure_type,
		SLD_DATA_TYPE	search_criterion_type
	)

Searches through data sequentially.

Parameters

data_structure	a sld_list, sld_map, sld_queue, sld_stack, sld_tree, or sld_vector
search_criterion	the value to search for in the passed data structure
data_structure_type	any type defined by SLD_DATA_STRUCTURE such as sld_data_structure_vector for example
search_criterion_type	any type defined by SLD_DATA_TYPE such as sld_data_type_int for example

Returns

Index, key, or true/false depending on the data structure passed

int index = (int *)sld_search_linear(&vector, "foo", sld_data_structure_vector, sld_data_type_char_pointer);
