Range extraction
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
A format for expressing an ordered list of integers is to use a comma separated list of either
- individual integers
- Or a range of integers denoted by the starting integer separated from the end integer in the range by a dash, '-'. (The range includes all integers in the interval including both endpoints)
- The range syntax is to be used only for, and for every range that expands to more than two values.
Example
The list of integers:
- -6, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20
Is accurately expressed by the range expression:
- -6,-3-1,3-5,7-11,14,15,17-20
(And vice-versa).
- Task
- Create a function that takes a list of integers in increasing order and returns a correctly formatted string in the range format.
- Use the function to compute and print the range formatted version of the following ordered list of integers. (The correct answer is:
0-2,4,6-8,11,12,14-25,27-33,35-39
.)
0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39
- Show the output of your program.

Ada
The provided solutions return an empty string, if the Sequence of integers is empty. Ranges with negative bounds are represented as -9--4, as the task requires. For real-life applications it is better to use the notation -9..-4.
Iterative Solution
Since we don't know in advance how long the output will be, the iterative solution uses Unbounded_Strings.
<lang Ada>with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO; with Ada.Strings.Unbounded; use Ada.Strings.Unbounded; with Ada.Strings.Fixed; use Ada.Strings.Fixed;
procedure Range_Extraction is
type Sequence is array (Positive range <>) of Integer; function Image (S : Sequence) return String is Result : Unbounded_String; From : Integer; procedure Flush (To : Integer) is begin if Length (Result) > 0 then Append (Result, ','); end if; Append (Result, Trim (Integer'Image (From), Ada.Strings.Left)); if From < To then if From+1 = To then Append (Result, ','); else Append (Result, '-'); end if; Append (Result, Trim (Integer'Image (To), Ada.Strings.Left)); end if; end Flush; begin if S'Length > 0 then From := S (S'First); for I in S'First + 1..S'Last loop if S (I - 1) + 1 /= S (I) then Flush (S (I - 1)); From := S (I); end if; end loop; Flush (S (S'Last)); end if; return To_String (Result); end Image;
begin
Put_Line ( Image ( ( 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39 ) ) );
end Range_Extraction;</lang>
Recursive Solution
The recursive solution avoids the usage of unbounded strings.
<lang Ada>with Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Strings.Fixed;
procedure Range_Extract is
type Sequence is array (Positive range <>) of Integer;
function Img(I: Integer) return String is -- the image of an Integer begin return Ada.Strings.Fixed.Trim(Integer'Image(I), Ada.Strings.Left); end Img;
function Img(S: Sequence) return String is -- the image of a Sequence
function X(S : Sequence) return String is -- recursive eXtract Idx: Positive := S'First; begin if S'Length = 0 then return ""; -- return nothing if Sequence is empty else while Idx < S'Last and then S(Idx+1) = S(Idx) + 1 loop Idx := Idx + 1; end loop; if Idx = S'First then return "," & Img(S(Idx)) & X(S(Idx+1 .. S'Last)); elsif Idx = S'First+1 then return "," & Img(S(S'First)) & ',' & Img(S(Idx)) & X(S(Idx+1 .. S'Last)); else return "," & Img(S(S'First)) & '-' & Img(S(Idx)) & X(S(Idx+1 .. S'Last)); end if; end if; end X;
begin -- function Img(S: Sequence) return String if S'Length = 0 then return ""; else return Img(S(S'First)) & X(S(S'First+1 .. S'Last)); end if; end Img;
begin -- main
Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line(Img( ( 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39) ));
end Range_Extract;</lang>

The sample output is exactly the same, for both solutions:

Iterative
- The closest concept that Algol 68 has to duck typing is the tagged union. This is used to define mode urange = union(int, struct(int lwb, upb)). If duck typing was available it could reduced the size of the code specimen, but would have lost some of Algol 68's strong type data security.

Generative
- The following code a set of helper functions/generators that can be used to manipulate a lists of ranges. They can manipulate either arrays or iterator. And they can handle data of type int or range and both these types unioned.
These chained iterators do the following steps:
- Iterate through three different types of initial arrays - []int, []range and []unirange with gen range, yielding range(lwb,upb)
- Iterate with gen range merge yielding merged range(lwb,upb)
- Iterate with gen unirange merge, merging and yielding a union of int and range
- Finally iterate with unirange list init exiting with an array of union of int and range.

C
Using the fine tradition of snprintf
, rprint
is not responsible for allocating output buffer.
It prints the range only if supplied a non-null pointer,
but always returns the output length sans the terminating null,
so caller can allocate buffer.

- include <stdlib.h>
size_t rprint(char *s, int *x, int len) {
- define sep (a > s ? "," : "") /* use comma except before first output */

Fortran
There was some initial confusion as to whether the list was to be supplied as an array of integer values, or as a text string from which integer values were to be extracted. The consensus is a text string. In principle the text string could be parsed to find the starting and stopping positions of each number so that any size integers could be processed merely by copying the texts around without reading the values into integer variables of limited capacity, but that would be complicated by the possible presence of signs. So, it was simpler to take advantage of the free-format data reading protocol that would handle signs without difficulty and on output any spurious +signs would be omitted. This however immediately raises the question: how many numbers are there to be read? A very useful input style is to start with the number of values to read followed by the values; then something like READ(IN,*) N,A(1:N)
works nicely. But this is not the given style of input, so a fallback: count how many commas appear to deduce how many numbers there are to be read. The free-format style allows either commas or spaces between numbers (and if there is a comma, any spaces also present are passed by), so the layout is easy. Data errors could still be encountered, so a more complete version would have READ (TEXT,*,ERR=label) VAL(1:N)
to catch these, but the specification does not call for checking.
The standard problem is "how long is a piece of string?" - arrays normally must be given a specific bound. With F90, it is possible to allocate an array of a size determined at run time via some tedious gibberish, but for this example, LOTS will suffice. More seriously, the specification calls for a function returning the text representation of the list, but unfortunately, a function must have a specified size as in CHARACTER*66 FUNCTION IRANGE(TEXT)
where the 66 is fixed at compile time. With Fortran 2003, there are facilities for the run-time sizing of character variables, but not in F90/95 though they could be devised with a great deal of blather. In any case, the size required is not known until the end, so successively reallocating space of size 1, 2, 3, 4, ... and each time copying the existing text into the larger text area would soon be painful. A largeish value for the size of the result could be used but instead, a subroutine, which returns its result via modifying its parameter. It is up to the caller to provide a parameter of sufficient size.
Although Pascal offers a Str procedure for converting a variable to a text string, maddeningly, it is a procedure not a function and so cannot be used within a compound statement. Fortran could offer access to the FORMAT facility via something like a function FMT(x) which returns the text representation of variable x with no leading or trailing spaces (whereby FMT(-6) would return "-6" and so forth) but alas, does not. Such a function cannot be written in ordinary Fortran until such time as it is possible to return varying-sized character results. The I0 format code standardised in F90 comes close but of course it must be used in a complex environment. All in all, it is easier to devise a subroutine SPLOT(n) to write the value of an integer (with possible leading hyphen if negative) to a scratchpad and then EMIT its text character by character to the output variable character until stopped by a space. Subroutines EMIT and SPLOT could be normal separate subroutines, but as servants of IRANGE it is easier to take advantage of the F90 facility whereby they can be "contained" inside IRANGE and thereby gain access to its internal context. Otherwise, there would have to be additional parameters or usage of COMMON variables for such communication.
The method grinds through the list of values, looking ahead for consecutive continuations (relying on the value of a DO-loop's index variable being available on exit from the loop) and thereby placing in its output string either a range of numbers or a single number. This could be done by using WRITE with suitable FORMAT statements to appropriate portions of the output string via careful counting of positions, but using EMIT and SPLOT avoids the requisite cogitations. A fancier method would be to devise a list of numbers to be output along with a suitable FORMAT statement that would supply the commas and hyphens as appropriate. Of course, one would again face the question "how long is a FORMAT string?", so, grinding stepwise it is. <lang Fortran> SUBROUTINE IRANGE(TEXT) !Identifies integer ranges in a list of integers. Could make this a function, but then a maximum text length returned would have to be specified.
CHARACTER*(*) TEXT !The list on input, the list with ranges on output. INTEGER LOTS !Once again, how long is a piece of string? PARAMETER (LOTS = 666) !This should do, at least for demonstrations. INTEGER VAL(LOTS) !The integers of the list. INTEGER N !Count of numbers. INTEGER I,I1 !Steppers. N = 1 !Presume there to be one number. DO I = 1,LEN(TEXT) !Then by noticing commas, IF (TEXT(I:I).EQ.",") N = N + 1 !Determine how many more there are. END DO !Step alonmg the text. IF (N.LE.2) RETURN !One comma = two values. Boring. IF (N.GT.LOTS) STOP "Too many values!" READ (TEXT,*) VAL(1:N) !Get the numbers, with free-format flexibility. TEXT = "" !Scrub the parameter! L = 0 !No text has been placed. I1 = 1 !Start the scan. 10 IF (L.GT.0) CALL EMIT(",") !A comma if there is prior text. CALL SPLOT(VAL(I1)) !The first number always appears. DO I = I1 + 1,N !Now probe ahead IF (VAL(I - 1) + 1 .NE. VAL(I)) EXIT !While values are consecutive. END DO !Up to the end of the remaining list. IF (I - I1 .GT. 2) THEN !More than two consecutive values seen? CALL EMIT("-") !Yes! CALL SPLOT(VAL(I - 1)) !The ending number of a range. I1 = I !Finger the first beyond the run. ELSE !But if too few to be worth a span, I1 = I1 + 1 !Just finger the next number. END IF !So much for that starter. IF (I.LE.N) GO TO 10 !Any more? CONTAINS !Some assistants to save on repetition. SUBROUTINE EMIT(C) !Rolls forth one character. CHARACTER*1 C !The character. L = L + 1 !Advance the finger. IF (L.GT.LEN(TEXT)) STOP "Ran out of text!" !Maybe not. TEXT(L:L) = C !And place the character. END SUBROUTINE EMIT !That was simple. SUBROUTINE SPLOT(N) !Rolls forth a signed number. INTEGER N !The number. CHARACTER*12 FIELD !Sufficient for 32-bit integers. INTEGER I !A stepper. WRITE (FIELD,"(I0)") N!Roll the number, with trailing spaces. DO I = 1,12 !Now transfer the text of the number. IF (FIELD(I:I).LE." ") EXIT !Up to the first space. CALL EMIT(FIELD(I:I)) !One by one. END DO !On to the end. END SUBROUTINE SPLOT !Not so difficult either. END !So much for IRANGE.

Prolog
Works with SWI-Prolog and library clpfd.
The code uses three predicates extract_Range/2, study_Range/2 and pack_Range/2.
Every predicate works in both directions arg1 towards arg2 and arg2 towards arg1, so that Range extraction and Range expansion work with the same predicates but in reverse order.

Python: For ordered iterables
A more general method that works on any sequential Iterable of integers, not only Sequences:
<lang python>def range_extract(iterable):
Assumes iterable is sorted sequentially. Returns iterator of range tuples. it = iter(iterable)
try: i = next(it) except StopIteration: return
while True: low = i
try: j = next(it) except StopIteration: yield (low, ) return while i + 1 == j: i_next = j try: j = next(it) except StopIteration: yield (low, j) return i = i_next
hi = i
if hi - low >= 2: yield (low, hi) elif hi - low == 1: yield (low,) yield (hi,) else: yield (low,)

Python: Using push-able iterator
Note that for an iterable yielding 1,2,3,6,7,8
the only way to determine the end of the first section of incremented numbers, 1,2,3
is to read the next number 6
, This next example defines an iterator where the 6
can be pushed back and so more cleanly made available for inclusion in detrmining the next sub-sequence of 6,7,8
.
<lang python>class PushableIter():
"Can push items back on iterable" def __init__(self, it): self.it = iter(it) self.pushed = []
def push(self, item): self.pushed.append(item)
def pop(self): return self.pushed.pop(0) if self.pushed else self.it.__next__()
def __iter__(self): return self
def __next__(self): return self.pop()
def range_extractp(sorted_iterable):
'Yield 2-tuple ranges or 1-tuple single elements from iter of increasing ints' rest = PushableIter(sorted_iterable) for this in rest: low = hi = last = this for nxt in rest: # Find upper range on incremented values if nxt == last + 1: last = hi = nxt else: # Out of (sub)-range rest.push(nxt) break if hi - low >= 2: yield (low, hi) elif hi - low == 1: yield (low,) yield (hi,) else: yield (low,)</lang>
- Output:
When substituted for function range_extract
in the first Python example it gives the same results.
Composition of pure functions
Python: splitBy
Defining a general and reusable splitBy function, which subdivides any list into groups at the points at which the relationship between consecutive items matches some binary predicate:

Range-formatted display string for a list of integers.
# gap :: Int -> Int -> Bool def gap(a, b): return b - a > 1

- rangeString :: [Int] -> String
def rangeString(xs):
Start and end of xs delimited by hyphens if there are more than two integers. Otherwise, comma-delimited xs. ys = [str(x) for x in xs] return '-'.join([ys[0], ys[-1]]) if 2 < len(ys) else ( ','.join(ys) )

Note: You could make the above solution even a little more generic in Nightly Rust (which is version 1.6 at the time of writing) by making the following additions:
Add this to the top of the file: <lang rust>#![feature(zero_one)] use std::num::One;</lang>
Changing this line: <lang rust> impl<'a, T> Iterator for RangeFinder<'a, T> where T: PartialEq + Add<i8, Output=T> + Copy {</lang> to this: <lang rust>impl<'a, T> Iterator for RangeFinder<'a, T> where T: PartialEq + Add<T, Output=T> + Copy + One {</lang>
And this line: <lang rust> while self.index < self.length - 1 && self.arr[self.index + 1] == self.arr[self.index] + 1 {</lang> to this: <lang rust> while self.index < self.length - 1 && self.arr[self.index + 1] == self.arr[self.index] + T::one() {</lang>
