Struct std::iter::Peekable

pub struct Peekable<I>where
    I: Iterator,{ /* private fields */ }

An iterator with a peek() that returns an optional reference to the next element.

This struct is created by the peekable method on Iterator. See its documentation for more.

Implementations

impl<I> Peekable<I>where
    I: Iterator,

pub fn peek(&mut self) -> Option<&<I as Iterator>::Item>

Returns a reference to the next() value without advancing the iterator.

Like next, if there is a value, it is wrapped in a Some(T). But if the iteration is over, None is returned.

Because peek() returns a reference, and many iterators iterate over references, there can be a possibly confusing situation where the return value is a double reference. You can see this effect in the examples below.

Examples

Basic usage:

let xs = [1, 2, 3];

let mut iter = xs.iter().peekable();

// peek() lets us see into the future
assert_eq!(iter.peek(), Some(&&1));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&1));

assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&2));

// The iterator does not advance even if we `peek` multiple times
assert_eq!(iter.peek(), Some(&&3));
assert_eq!(iter.peek(), Some(&&3));

assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&3));

// After the iterator is finished, so is `peek()`
assert_eq!(iter.peek(), None);
assert_eq!(iter.next(), None);

pub fn peek_mut(&mut self) -> Option<&mut <I as Iterator>::Item>

Returns a mutable reference to the next() value without advancing the iterator.

Like next, if there is a value, it is wrapped in a Some(T). But if the iteration is over, None is returned.

Because peek_mut() returns a reference, and many iterators iterate over references, there can be a possibly confusing situation where the return value is a double reference. You can see this effect in the examples below.

Examples

Basic usage:

let mut iter = [1, 2, 3].iter().peekable();

// Like with `peek()`, we can see into the future without advancing the iterator.
assert_eq!(iter.peek_mut(), Some(&mut &1));
assert_eq!(iter.peek_mut(), Some(&mut &1));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&1));

// Peek into the iterator and set the value behind the mutable reference.
if let Some(p) = iter.peek_mut() {
    assert_eq!(*p, &2);
    *p = &5;
}

// The value we put in reappears as the iterator continues.
assert_eq!(iter.collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec![&5, &3]);

pub fn next_if(
    &mut self,
    func: impl FnOnce(&<I as Iterator>::Item) -> bool
) -> Option<<I as Iterator>::Item>

Consume and return the next value of this iterator if a condition is true.

If func returns true for the next value of this iterator, consume and return it. Otherwise, return None.

Examples

Consume a number if it’s equal to 0.

let mut iter = (0..5).peekable();
// The first item of the iterator is 0; consume it.
assert_eq!(iter.next_if(|&x| x == 0), Some(0));
// The next item returned is now 1, so `consume` will return `false`.
assert_eq!(iter.next_if(|&x| x == 0), None);
// `next_if` saves the value of the next item if it was not equal to `expected`.
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(1));

Consume any number less than 10.

let mut iter = (1..20).peekable();
// Consume all numbers less than 10
while iter.next_if(|&x| x < 10).is_some() {}
// The next value returned will be 10
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(10));

pub fn next_if_eq<T>(&mut self, expected: &T) -> Option<<I as Iterator>::Item>where
    <I as Iterator>::Item: PartialEq<T>,
    T: ?Sized,

Consume and return the next item if it is equal to expected.

Example

Consume a number if it’s equal to 0.

let mut iter = (0..5).peekable();
// The first item of the iterator is 0; consume it.
assert_eq!(iter.next_if_eq(&0), Some(0));
// The next item returned is now 1, so `consume` will return `false`.
assert_eq!(iter.next_if_eq(&0), None);
// `next_if_eq` saves the value of the next item if it was not equal to `expected`.
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(1));
