An iterator adapter that allows you to efficiently peek the nth item of an iterator.
Itermediate values are memoized and heap allocations are avoided when possible.
First, add peek-nth
to the dependencies section of your Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
peek-nth = "0.2"
Next, add the following snippet to the entry point of your crate (lib.rs
or main.rs
):
extern crate peek_nth;
extern crate peek_nth;
use peek_nth::IteratorExt;
fn main() {
let mut iter = "Hello, world!".chars().peekable_nth();
assert_eq!(iter.peek_nth(4), Some(&'o')); // Cache Miss
assert_eq!(iter.peek_nth(3), Some(&'l')); // Cache Hit
assert_eq!(iter.peek_nth(2), Some(&'l')); // Cache Hit
assert_eq!(iter.peek_nth(1), Some(&'e')); // Cache Hit
assert_eq!(iter.peek_nth(0), Some(&'H')); // Cache Hit
assert_eq!(iter.peek_nth(7), Some(&'w')); // Cache Miss
assert_eq!(iter.collect::<String>(), "Hello, world!");
}
