-
Efficient Set Operations:
Implements common set operations (e.g., difference, partition, symmetric difference) for slices using an efficient map-based approach. -
Fast K-Element Selection:
Includes a custom algorithm for efficiently finding the Min-K and Max-K elements within a slice. -
Generic Support:
All functions are built with Go generics, ensuring type safety and reusability across data types.
You can find the benchmarks here.
TLDR:
- k-element selection: 10-100x faster then sorting the full slice
While Go's standard slices package provides foundational utilities, slicex aims to complement it by offering specialized and performant functions that address frequently encountered challenges in data processing. It's ideal for projects requiring highly efficient slice transformations.
