# std.experimental.ndslice.selection

This is a submodule of std.experimental.ndslice.
Selectors create new views and iteration patterns over the same data, without copying.

## Subspace selectors

Subspace selectors serve to generalize and combine other selectors easily. For a slice of Slice!(N, Range) type slice.pack!K creates a slice of slices of Slice!(N-K, Slice!(K+1, Range)) type by packing the last K dimensions of the top dimension pack, and the type of element of slice.byElement is Slice!(K, Range). Another way to use pack is transposition of dimension packs using evertPack. Examples of use of subspace selectors are available for selectors, Slice.shape , and Slice.elementsCount .

Function Name | Description
--- | ---
pack | returns slice of slices
unpack | merges all dimension packs
evertPack | reverses dimension packs

## Selectors

Function Name | Description
--- | ---
blocks | n-dimensional slice composed of n-dimensional non-overlapping blocks. If the slice has two dimensions, it is a block matrix.
byElement | flat, random access range of all elements with index property
byElementInStandardSimplex | an input range of all elements in standard simplex of hypercube with index property. If the slice has two dimensions, it is a range of all elements of upper left triangular matrix.
diagonal | 1-dimensional slice composed of diagonal elements
indexSlice | lazy slice with initial multidimensional index
iotaSlice | lazy slice with initial flattened (continuous) index
mapSlice | lazy multidimensional functional map
repeatSlice | slice with identical values
reshape | new slice with changed dimensions for the same data
windows | n-dimensional slice of n-dimensional overlapping windows. If the slice has two dimensions, it is a sliding window.

template `pack`(K...)
  Creates a packed slice, i.e. slice of slices. The function does not carry out any calculations, it simply returns the same binary data presented differently.
  Parameters:

  K | sizes of dimension packs

  Returns:
  `pack`!K returns Slice!(N-K, Slice!(K+1, Range)); slice.`pack`!(K1, K2, ..., Kn) is the same as slice.`pack`!K1.`pack`!K2. ... `pack`!Kn.
  Examples:

      import std.experimental.ndslice : sliced, Slice, pack;
      import std.range : iota;

      auto r = (3 * 4 * 5 * 6).iota;
      auto a = r.sliced(3, 4, 5, 6);
      auto b = a.pack!2;

      static immutable res1 = [3, 4];
      static immutable res2 = [5, 6];
      assert(b.shape == res1);
      assert(b[0, 0].shape == res2);
      assert(a == b);
      static assert(is(typeof(b) == typeof(a.pack!2)));
      static assert(is(typeof(b) == Slice!(2, Slice!(3, typeof(r)))));

Slice!(N, Range).PureThis `unpack`(size_t N, Range)(Slice!(N, Range) `slice`);
  Unpacks a packed `slice`.
  The function does not carry out any calculations, it simply returns the same binary data presented differently.
  Parameters:

  Slice!(N, Range) `slice` | packed `slice`

  Returns:
  unpacked `slice`
  See Also:
  pack, evertPack

auto `byElement`(size_t N, Range)(Slice!(N, Range) `slice`);
  Returns a random access range of all elements of a `slice`. The order of elements is preserved. `byElement` can be generalized with other selectors.
  Parameters:

  N | dimension count
  Slice!(N, Range) `slice` | `slice` to be iterated

  Returns:
  random access range composed of elements of the `slice`
  Examples:
  Regular `slice`

      assert(iotaSlice(4, 5)
          .byElement
          .equal(20.iota));

      import std.experimental.ndslice.iteration;
      import std.range : drop;

          .drop(1)
          .front
           == iotaSlice([6, 7], 6 * 7));

  Examples:

      auto elems = iotaSlice(3, 4).byElement;

      elems.popFrontExactly(2);
      assert(elems.front == 2);

           [30, 33, 36, 39],
           [40, 43, 46, 49]]);

  Examples:
  Random access and slicing

      import std.experimental.ndslice.slice;
      import std.algorithm.comparison : equal;
      import std.array : array;
      import std.range : iota, repeat;
      static data = 20.iota.array;
      auto elems = data.sliced(4, 5).byElement;

      elems = elems[11 .. $ - 2];

      assert(elems.length == 7);
      assert(elems.front == 11);
      assert(elems.back == 17);

      foreach (i; 0 .. 7)
          assert(elems[i] == i + 11);

      // assign an element
      elems[2 .. 6] = -1;
      assert(elems[2 .. 6].equal(repeat(-1, 4)));

      // assign an array
      static ar = [-1, -2, -3, -4];
      elems[2 .. 6] = ar;
      assert(elems[2 .. 6].equal(ar));

      // assign a slice
      ar[] *= 2;
      auto sl = ar.sliced(ar.length);
      elems[2 .. 6] = sl;
      assert(elems[2 .. 6].equal(sl));

  Examples:
  Forward access works faster than random access or backward access. Use allReversed in pipeline before `byElement` to achieve fast backward access.

      import std.range : retro;
      import std.experimental.ndslice.iteration : allReversed;

      auto slice = iotaSlice(3, 4, 5);

      /// Slow backward iteration #1
      foreach (ref e; slice.byElement.retro)
      {
          //...
      }

      /// Slow backward iteration #2
      foreach_reverse (ref e; slice.byElement)
      {
          //...
      }

      /// Fast backward iteration
      foreach (ref e; slice.allReversed.byElement)
      {
          //...
      }

auto `byElementInStandardSimplex`(size_t N, Range)(Slice!(N, Range) `slice`, size_t `maxHypercubeLength` = size_t.max);
  Returns an forward range of all elements of standard simplex of a `slice`. In case the `slice` has two dimensions, it is composed of elements of upper left triangular matrix. The order of elements is preserved. `byElementInStandardSimplex` can be generalized with other selectors.

template `RepeatSlice`(size_t N, T) if (N)
  Slice composed of identical values.
template `mapSlice`(fun...) if (fun.length)
  Implements the homonym function (also known as transform) present in many languages of functional flavor. The call `mapSlice`!(fun)(tensor) returns a tensor of which elements are obtained by applying fun for all elements in tensor. The original tensors are not changed. Evaluation is done lazily.

  Note: transposed and pack can be used to specify dimensions.

  Parameters:

  fun | One or more functions.
  Slice!(N, Range) tensor | An input tensor.

  Returns:
  a tensor with each fun applied to all the elements. If there is more than one fun, the element type will be Tuple containing one element for each fun.
  See Also:
  std.algorithm.iteration.map Map (higher-order function)
  Examples:

      import std.experimental.ndslice.selection : iotaSlice;

      auto s = iotaSlice(2, 3).mapSlice!(a => a * 3);
      assert(s == [[ 0,  3,  6],
                   [ 9, 12, 15]]);

  Examples:
  Packed tensors.

      import std.experimental.ndslice.selection : iotaSlice, windows;

      //  iotaSlice        windows     mapSlice  sums ( ndFold!"a + b" )
      //                --------------
      //  -------      |  ---    ---  |      ------
      // | 0 1 2 |  => || 0 1 || 1 2 ||  => | 8 12 |
      // | 3 4 5 |     || 3 4 || 4 5 ||      ------
      //  -------      |  ---    ---  |
      //                --------------
      auto s = iotaSlice(2, 3)
          .windows(2, 2)
          .mapSlice!((a) {
              size_t s;
              foreach (r; a)
                  foreach (e; r)
                      s += e;
              return s;
              });

      assert(s == [[8, 12]]);

  Examples:
  Zipped tensors

      import std.experimental.ndslice.slice : assumeSameStructure;
      import std.experimental.ndslice.selection : iotaSlice;

      // 0 1 2
      // 3 4 5
      auto sl1 = iotaSlice(2, 3);
      // 1 2 3
      // 4 5 6
      auto sl2 = iotaSlice([2, 3], 1);

      // tensors must have the same strides
      assert(sl1.structure == sl2.structure);

      auto zip = assumeSameStructure!("a", "b")(sl1, sl2);

      auto lazySum = zip.mapSlice!(z => z.a + z.b);

      assert(lazySum == [[ 1,  3,  5],
                         [ 7,  9, 11]]);

  Examples:
  Multiple functions can be passed to `mapSlice`. In that case, the element type of `mapSlice` is a tuple containing one element for each function.

      import std.experimental.ndslice.selection : iotaSlice;

      auto s = iotaSlice(2, 3).mapSlice!("a + a", "a * a");

      auto sums     = [[0, 2, 4], [6,  8, 10]];
      auto products = [[0, 1, 4], [9, 16, 25]];

      foreach (i; 0..s.length!0)
      foreach (j; 0..s.length!1)
      {
          auto values = s[i, j];
          assert(values[0] == sums[i][j]);
          assert(values[1] == products[i][j]);
      }

  Examples:
  You may alias `mapSlice` with some function(s) to a symbol and use it separately:

      import std.conv : to;
      import std.experimental.ndslice.selection : iotaSlice;

      alias stringize = mapSlice!(to!string);
      assert(stringize(iotaSlice(2, 3)) == [["0", "1", "2"], ["3", "4", "5"]]);

  auto `mapSlice`(size_t N, Range)(Slice!(N, Range) `tensor`);
