## Supports
- Ruby 2.3 ~ 2.7
- For Ruby 1.8.x and 1.9.x, please use multi_range < v2.0.0
- For Ruby 2.0 ~ 2.2, please use multi_range < v2.2.0
## Installation
```ruby
gem 'multi_range'
```
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install multi_range
## Usage
Allow you to manipulate a group of ranges. Such as merging overlapping ranges, doing ranges union, intersection, difference, and so on.
### Sample a number
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..5, 10..12])
multi_range.sample
# => equals to [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12].sample
```
### Difference of ranges
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..10])
multi_range -= 5..7
multi_range.ranges
# => [1...5, 8..10]
```
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..10, 50..70, 80..100])
multi_range -= 5..85
multi_range.ranges
# => [1...5, 86..100]
```
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..10, 50..70, 80..100])
multi_range -= MultiRange.new([5..60, 75..85])
multi_range.ranges
# => [1...5, 61..70, 86..100]
```
### Union ranges
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..5])
multi_range |= 3..8
multi_range.ranges
# => [1..8]
```
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..5, 10..15, 20..25])
multi_range |= MultiRange.new([3..6, 14..22, 30])
multi_range.ranges
# => [1..6, 10..25, 30..30]
```
### Intersection ranges
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..5])
multi_range &= 3..8
multi_range.ranges
# => [3..5]
```
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..3, 5..10])
multi_range &= MultiRange.new([2..6, 8..9])
multi_range.ranges
# => [2..3, 5..6, 8..9]
```
### Merge overlaps
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1, 2, 4..6, 7, 8..12])
multi_range.merge_overlaps.ranges
# => [1..2, 4..12]
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1.2..1.5, 1.7..1.9, 1.8..2.2])
multi_range.merge_overlaps.ranges
# => [1.2..1.5, 1.7..2.2]
```
### Check if it overlaps with the other
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..5, 10..15, 20..25])
multi_range.overlaps?(7..8)
# => false
multi_range.overlaps?(3..8)
# => true
multi_range.overlaps?(7..12)
# => true
```
```rb
multi_range = MultiRange.new([1..5, 10..15, 20..25])
multi_range.overlaps?(MultiRange.new([6..8, 18..22]))
# => true
```
### Check if it contains overlaps
```rb
MultiRange.new([0..3, 5..10, 20..50]).contain_overlaps?
# => false
MultiRange.new([0...5, 5..10, 20..50]).contain_overlaps?
# => false
MultiRange.new([0..5, 5..10, 20..50]).contain_overlaps?
# => true
MultiRange.new([0...7, 5..10, 20..50]).contain_overlaps?
# => true
```
### Range-like interface
#### each
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..3, 6, 8..9]).each{|s| print s }
# => 123689
```
#### map
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..3, 6, 8..9]).map{|s| s * 2 }
# => [2, 4, 6, 12, 16, 18]
```
#### index_with
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..3, 6, 8..9]).index_with(true)
# => { 1 => true, 2 => true, 3 => true, 6 => true, 8 => true, 9 => true }
```
#### min
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..3, 6, 8..9]).min
# => 1
```
#### max
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..3, 6, 8..9]).max
# => 9
```
#### to_a
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..3, 6, 8..9]).to_a
# => [1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 9]
```
#### size
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..3, 6, 8..9]).size
# => 6
```
### Warning
The return value may be different when there are some overlapped ranges.
Call `merge_overlaps` if you want to merge overlapped ranges.
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..5, 3..6]).to_a
# => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 3, 4, 5, 6]
MultiRange.new([1..5, 3..6]).merge_overlaps.to_a
# => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
```
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..5, 3..6]).each{|s| print s }
# => 123453456
MultiRange.new([1..5, 3..6]).merge_overlaps.each{|s| print s }
# => 123456
```
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..5, 3..6]).map{|s| s * 2 }
# => [2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 6, 8, 10, 12]
MultiRange.new([1..5, 3..6]).merge_overlaps.map{|s| s * 2 }
# => [2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12]
```
```rb
MultiRange.new([1..5, 3..6]).size
# => 9
MultiRange.new([1..5, 3..6]).merge_overlaps.size
# => 6
```
## Development
After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
