Как работают строковые интервалы?

Я немного поигрался с этим ответом и даже поднял вопрос RADAR в Apple, попросив предоставить лучшую документацию по этому вопросу (чириканье сверчков).

Вопрос в следующем: как работают строковые интервалы?

Если вы посмотрите на строку 367 на моей игровой площадке, вы увидите, как я возиться со строковыми интервалами.

Я извлек String вещи на маленькую игровую площадку:

// String Intervals
// These are odd. Looks like it is using the ASCII values. I should experiment with Unicode, and see where we go...
let aThroughFClosed:ClosedInterval<String>          = "A"..."F"
let dThroughQClosed:ClosedInterval                  = "D"..."Q"
let mThroughSClosed:ClosedInterval                  = "M"..."S"
let tThroughWClosed:ClosedInterval                  = "T"..."W"
let whiskeyTangoFoxtrot1                            = "QED"..."WTF" /* Not sure what will happen when I start working with this... */
let aThroughHHalfOpen:HalfOpenInterval<String>      = "A"..<"H"
let dThroughRHalfOpen:HalfOpenInterval              = "D"..<"R"
let mThroughTHalfOpen:HalfOpenInterval              = "M"..<"T"
let tThroughXHalfOpen:HalfOpenInterval              = "T"..<"X"
let whiskeyTangoFoxtrot2                            = "QED"..<"WTF"
let clampedString1 = aThroughFClosed.clamp ( dThroughQClosed )  /* This represents "D"..."F" */
let clampedString2 = dThroughQClosed.clamp ( aThroughFClosed )  /* This represents "D"..."F" */
let clampedString3 = dThroughQClosed.clamp ( mThroughSClosed )  /* This represents "M"..."Q" */
let clampedString4 = dThroughQClosed.clamp ( tThroughWClosed )  /* This represents "Q"..."Q" */
let clampedString5 = aThroughFClosed.clamp ( tThroughWClosed )  /* This represents "F"..."F" */
let clampedString6 = aThroughHHalfOpen.clamp ( dThroughRHalfOpen )  /* This represents "D"..<"G" */
let clampedString7 = dThroughRHalfOpen.clamp ( aThroughHHalfOpen )  /* This represents "D"..<"H" */
let clampedString8 = dThroughRHalfOpen.clamp ( mThroughTHalfOpen )  /* This represents "M"..<"R" */
let clampedString9 = dThroughRHalfOpen.clamp ( tThroughXHalfOpen )  /* This represents "R"..<"R" */
let clampedString0 = aThroughHHalfOpen.clamp ( tThroughXHalfOpen )  /* This represents "H"..<"H" (Not exactly sure why) */

    println ( "In catchall." )

    println ( "WTF, dude?" )

Решение

Как я понимаю, ClosedInterval(lo, hi) представляет все строки s такой, что

lo <= s <= hi

а также HalfOpenInterval(lo, hi) представляет все строки s такой, что

lo <= s < hi

где <= а также < определяются лексикографическим порядком строк, т.е. сравнивают символы один за другим, пока не будет найдена разница.

Например "QED" < "T" < "WTF" так как Q < T < W, но "F" < "QED" так какF < Q, Следовательно

HalfOpenInterval("QED" , "WTF").contains("T") == true
HalfOpenInterval("QED" , "WTF").contains("F") == false

А также "QED" < "QSF" так как Q == Q а также E < S, но "QAF" < "QED" так как Q == Q а также A < E, Следовательно

HalfOpenInterval("QED" , "WTF").contains("QSF") == true
HalfOpenInterval("QED" , "WTF").contains("QAF") == false

Это должно объяснить все ваши результаты теста.

В заключение,

let clampedString0 = aThroughHHalfOpen.clamp ( tThroughXHalfOpen )

пустой интервал, потому что "A"..<"H" а также "T"..<"X" не имеет общих точек. Пустой интервал может быть представлен как HalfOpenInterval(dummy, dummy) для любого значения dummy,
