Std.PrefixTrie.hasPrefix

1 declaration

fn

hasPrefix: &Std.PrefixTrie.PrefixTrie[V] -> Str -> Bool

This is a callable function.

What it does

Whether any key begins with this prefix.

Cheaper than asking for the matches and counting them: it walks the prefix

and stops, without collecting anything beneath.

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.
