Module Map
: sig end

Association tables over ordered types.

This module implements applicative association tables, also known as finite maps or dictionaries, given a total ordering function over the keys. All operations over maps are purely applicative (no side-effects). The implementation uses balanced binary trees, and therefore searching and insertion take time logarithmic in the size of the map.

module type OrderedType = sig end

Input signature of the functor Map.Make .

module type S = sig end

Output signature of the functor Map.Make .

module Make : functor (Ord : OrderedType) -> sig end

Functor building an implementation of the map structure given a totally ordered type.
