7099 :: Real sets and tables anywhere?

• HJarausch (orginal) [2020-11-16T14:13:10+01:00] view original

  Does Nim have a 'set' type or at least a 'table' type which can hold (be indexed by) any hashable type. E.g. how can I get a set of tuple[int, int] or table(tuple[int, int], bool) Perhaps it's not a good idea to come to Nim having a strong background in Python and C++. Thanks for a hint, Helmut

  You have bit-sets built into system, and there are hash sets in the sets module and hash tables in the tables module.

  Well, there is Nim for Python programmers and reading at least the Tutorial will answer your questions...
