9.16. Arrays🔗

The Array type represents sequences of elements, addressable by their position in the sequence. Arrays are specially supported by Lean:

They have a logical model that specifies their behavior in terms of lists of elements, which specifies the meaning of each operation on arrays.
They have an optimized run-time representation in compiled code as dynamic arrays, and the Lean runtime specially optimizes array operations.
There is array literal syntax for writing strings.

Arrays can be vastly more efficient than lists or other sequences in compiled code. In part, this is because they offer good locality: because all the elements of the sequence are next to each other in memory, the processor's caches can be used efficiently. Even more importantly, if there is only a single reference to an array, operations that might otherwise copy or allocate a data structure can be implemented via mutation. Lean code that uses an array in such a way that there's only ever one unique reference (that is, uses it linearly) avoids the performance overhead of persistent data structures while still being as convenient to write, read, and prove things about as ordinary pure functional programs.

9.16.1. Logical Model

structure

Array.{u} (α : Type u) : Type u

Array α is the type of dynamic arrays with elements from α. This type has special support in the runtime.

An array has a size and a capacity; the size is Array.size but the capacity is not observable from Lean code. Arrays perform best when unshared; as long as they are used "linearly" all updates will be performed destructively on the array, so it has comparable performance to mutable arrays in imperative programming languages.

From the point of view of proofs Array α is just a wrapper around List α.

Constructor

Array.mk.{u} {α : Type u} (toList : List α)
    : Array α

Converts a List α into an Array α.

You can also use the synonym List.toArray when dot notation is convenient.

At runtime, this constructor is implemented by List.toArrayImpl and is O(n) in the length of the list.

Fields

toList : List α

Converts a Array α into an List α.

At runtime, this projection is implemented by Array.toListImpl and is O(n) in the length of the array.

The logical model of arrays is a structure that contains a single field, which is a list of elements. This is convenient when specifying and proving properties of array-processing functions at a low level.

9.16.2. Run-Time Representation🔗

Lean's arrays are dynamic arrays, which are blocks of continuous memory with a defined capacity, not all of which is typically in use. As long as the number of elements in the array is less than the capacity, new items can be added to the end without reallocating or moving the data. Adding items to an array that has no extra space results in a reallocation that doubles the capacity. The amortized overhead scales linearly with the size of the array. The values in the array are represented as described in the section on the foreign function interface.

Memory layout of arrays

After the object header, an array contains:

size: The number of objects currently stored in the array
capacity: The number of objects that fit in the memory allocated for the array
data: The values in the array

Many array functions in the Lean runtime check whether they have exclusive access to their argument by consulting the reference count in the object header. If they do, and the array's capacity is sufficient, then the existing array can be mutated rather than allocating fresh memory. Otherwise, a new array must be allocated.

9.16.2.1. Performance Notes🔗

Despite the fact that they appear to be an ordinary constructor and projection, Array.mk and Array.data take time linear in the size of the array in compiled code. This is because they must implement the conversions between linked lists and packed arrays, which must necessarily visit each element.

Mutable arrays can be used to write very efficient code. However, they are a poor persistent data structure. Updating a shared array rules out mutation, and requires time linear in the size of the array. When using arrays in performance-critical code, it's important to ensure that they are used linearly.

9.16.3. Syntax🔗

Array literals allow arrays to be written directly in code. They may be used in expression or pattern contexts.

syntax

Array literals begin with #[ and contain a comma-separated sequence of terms, terminating with ].

term ::= ...
    | #[term,*]

Array Literals

Array literals may be used as expressions or as patterns.

def oneTwoThree : Array Nat := #[1, 2, 3]

some 2#eval
  match oneTwoThree with
  | #[x, y, z] => some ((x + z) / y)
  | _ => none

Additionally, sub-arrays may be extracted using the following syntax:

syntax

A start index followed by a colon constructs a sub-array that contains the values from the start index onwards (inclusive):

term ::= ...
    | term[term :]

Providing start and end indices constructs a sub-array that contains the values from the start index (inclusive) to the end index (exclusive):

term ::= ...
    | term[term : term]

Sub-array Syntax

The array ten contains the first ten natural numbers.

def ten : Array Nat :=
  .range 10

A sub-array that represents the second half of ten can be constructed using the sub-array syntax:

#[5, 6, 7, 8, 9].toSubarray#eval ten[5:]

#[5, 6, 7, 8, 9].toSubarray

Similarly, sub-array that contains two through five can be constructed by providing a stopping point:

#[2, 3, 4, 5].toSubarray#eval ten[2:6]

#[2, 3, 4, 5].toSubarray

Because sub-arrays merely store the start and end indices of interest in the underlying array, the array itself can be recovered:

true#eval ten[2:6].array == ten

true

9.16.4. API Reference🔗

9.16.4.1. Constructing Arrays

def

Array.empty.{u} {α : Type u} : Array α

def

Array.ofFn.{u} {α : Type u} {n : Nat}
    (f : Fin n → α) : Array α

ofFn f with f : Fin n → α returns the list whose ith element is f i.

ofFn f = #[f 0, f 1, ... , f(n - 1)]

def

9.16.4.2. Size

def

Array.size.{u} {α : Type u} (a : Array α) : Nat

Get the size of an array. This is a cached value, so it is O(1) to access.

def

Array.usize.{u} {α : Type u} (a : Array α)
    : USize

Low-level version of size that directly queries the C array object cached size. While this is not provable, usize always returns the exact size of the array since the implementation only supports arrays of size less than USize.size.

def

Array.isEmpty.{u} {α : Type u} (a : Array α)
    : Bool

9.16.4.3. Lookups

def

Array.extract.{u_1} {α : Type u_1}
    (as : Array α) (start stop : Nat) : Array α

Returns the slice of as from indices start to stop (exclusive). If start is greater or equal to stop, the result is empty. If stop is greater than the length of as, the length is used instead.

def

Array.get.{u} {α : Type u} (a : Array α)
    (i : Nat) (h : i < a.size) : α

Access an element from an array without needing a runtime bounds checks, using a Nat index and a proof that it is in bounds.

This function does not use get_elem_tactic to automatically find the proof that the index is in bounds. This is because the tactic itself needs to look up values in arrays. Use the indexing notation a[i] instead.

def

def

Array.uget.{u} {α : Type u} (a : Array α)
    (i : USize) (h : i.toNat < a.size) : α

Low-level version of fget which is as fast as a C array read. Fin values are represented as tag pointers in the Lean runtime. Thus, fget may be slightly slower than uget.

9.16.4.13. Termination Helpers

def

Array.attach.{u_1} {α : Type u_1} (xs : Array α)
    : Array { x // x ∈ xs }

O(1). "Attach" the proof that the elements of xs are in xs to produce a new array with the same elements but in the type {x // x ∈ xs}.

def

Array.attachWith.{u_1} {α : Type u_1}
    (xs : Array α) (P : α → Prop)
    (H : ∀ (x : α), x ∈ xs → P x)
    : Array { x // P x }

O(1). "Attach" a proof P x that holds for all the elements of xs to produce a new array with the same elements but in the type {x // P x}.

def

Array.unattach.{u_1} {α : Type u_1}
    {p : α → Prop} (l : Array { x // p x })
    : Array α

A synonym for l.map (·.val). Mostly this should not be needed by users. It is introduced as in intermediate step by lemmas such as map_subtype, and is ideally subsequently simplified away by unattach_attach.

If not, usually the right approach is simp [Array.unattach, -Array.map_subtype] to unfold.

The representation of arrays in C. See the description of run-time Arrays for more details.

FFI function

bool lean_is_array(lean_object * o)

Returns true if o is an array, or false otherwise.

FFI function

lean_array_object * lean_to_array(lean_object * o)

Performs a runtime check that o is indeed an array. If o is not an array, an assertion fails.
