归并排序

上一节课的排序函数不够通用，类型只适用Int:

object mergesort{
    def msort(xs: List[Int]):List[Int] = {
        val n = xs.length/2
        if(n==0) xs
        else{
            def merge(xs:List[Int],ys: List[Int]):List[Int] = (xs,ys)match {
                case (Nil,ys) => ys
                case (xs,Nil) => xs
                case (x::xs1,y::ys1) => 
                if(x<y) x::merge(xs1,ys1)
                else y::merge(xs,ys1)
            }
            val (fst,snd) = xs splitAt n
            merge(msort(fst),msort(snd))
        }

    }
    val nums = List(2,-4,5,7,1)
    msort(nums)
}

更通用的归并排序写法

object mergesort{
    def msort[T](xs: List[T])(lt:(T,T) => Boolean):List[T] = {
        val n = xs.length/2
        if(n==0) xs
        else{
            def merge(xs:List[T],ys: List[T]):List[T] = (xs,ys)match {
                case (Nil,ys) => ys
                case (xs,Nil) => xs
                case (x::xs1,y::ys1) => 
                if(lt(x,y)) x::merge(xs1,ys1)
                else y::merge(xs,ys1)
            }
            val (fst,snd) = xs splitAt n
            merge(msort(fst)(lt),msort(snd)(lt))
        }

    }
    val nums = List(2,-4,5,7,1)
    msort(nums)((x:Int,y:Int) => x < y)
    val fruits = List("apple","pineapple","orange")
    msort(fruits)((x: String,y:String) =>x.compareTo(y)<0)
}

Implicit隐式转换

在函数的参数中使用 编译器会根据类型得到正确的隐含参数

对排序函数再改造一下，scala提供了常用的比较操作Ordering，在scala.math包下：

object mergesort{
    def msort[T](xs: List[T])(ord:Ordering)):List[T] = {
        val n = xs.length/2
        if(n==0) xs
        else{
            def merge(xs:List[T],ys: List[T]):List[T] = (xs,ys)match {
                case (Nil,ys) => ys
                case (xs,Nil) => xs
                case (x::xs1,y::ys1) => 
                if(ord.lt(x,y)) x::merge(xs1,ys1)
                else y::merge(xs,ys1)
            }
            val (fst,snd) = xs splitAt n
            merge(msort(fst)(ord),msort(snd)(ord))
        }

    }
    val nums = List(2,-4,5,7,1)
    msort(nums)(Ordering.Int)
    val fruits = List("apple","pineapple","orange")
    msort(fruits)(Ordering.String)
}

利用implicit，我们可以省去一些参数。scala编译器会帮我们匹配类型：

def msort[T](xs: List[T])(implicit ord:Ordering)):List[T] = {
 ...
}

调用时只需:
msort(List(1,2,3)) 或者msort(List("1","2","3"))

隐式转换条件

编译器如何查找implicit定义:

• is marked implicit
• has a type compatible with T
• is visible at the point of the function call, or is de?ned in a
  companion object associated with T.

以上的原则 Ordering是包含类型参数的 完整的形式是 Ordering[T]
所以编译器在使用 List(1,2,3) 时会正确找到 Ordering[Int]
而为 List("1","2","3") 时则为Ordering[String]
如：

  def less[T](a:T,b:T)(implicit ord:math.Ordering[T]):Boolean=ord.lt(a, b) 
  less(1,2)
