This is an ongoing project, comprised of modules facilitating functionality I find useful or interesting during the course of my experiments with SML.
sources.cm- The SML/NJ Compilation Manager (thus
.cm) description file that packages all the modules as a library. Users can include this library in their own projects in two ways:- For nontrivial projects, add it as member of the description file for the project, as described in the SML/NJ CM manual (pdf), p. 6.
- For simple projects, the user can make this library available directly from
the SML source file by making the member modules available for
auto-loading. To do this, call
CM.autoload "<path here>/sml-utils/sources.cm";in the source file before calling the library’s modules.
array-slice-plus.sml- Defines the module
ArraySlicePlus, which extends theArraySlicemodule from the basis library, enabling more declarative use of array slices. You can see an example of this module in action in my study of in-place quicksort. dict-pairs.sml- Defines the module
DictPairs, providing functions on pairs of lists used as a key-value store. collection.sml- Strives to define a common interface for collection types.
file.sml- Defines the module
File, which will collect functions operating on files. graph.sml- A parametric graph library, which can define and operate on graphs, digraphs, or multi-graphs, depending on the parameters supplied.
iou.sml- Defines the module
IOU, which will collect input/output utilities. It’s barren at the moment. list-plus.sml- Defines the module
ListPlus, which extends the List module in the SML basis library. number.sml- Defines a common interface for numbers (ints, reals etc).
ordered.sml- Defines modules for ordered types, including sub-types like bounded orders, enumerable orders, and cyclical orders.
pair.sml- Defines the module
Pair, providing functions on tuples, including ways of constructing, mapping into, accessing, and displaying tuples. petitest.sml- Defines the module
PetiTest, a very petite tool for testing. Likely the most petite possible. rand-c.sml- Defines the module
RandC, providing random operations on any collection that can be transformed to and from a list. random-plus.sml- Defines modules facilitating the generation of simple random values.
shell.sml- Defines the module
Shell, which provides a few functions for moving around directories and listing files. stack.sml- Defines modules for monomorphic and polymorphic stacks.
