Std.LinkedMap.touch
1 declaration
fn
touch: &Std.LinkedMap.LinkedMap[K, V] -> K -> V -> Std.LinkedMap.LinkedMap[K, V]This is a callable function.
What it does
The map with an entry moved to the end of the order, added if it is new.
The recency order insert deliberately does not keep. A cache deciding what
to discard, or a list of recently opened files, wants the key it just
touched to be last; both are asking a different question from "when did this
first appear", so both are spelled differently.
Read the signature
- The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
- Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
- & borrows a value for this call instead of moving or copying it.
- Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
