Specialized vectors


The specialized-vectors vocabulary implements resizable sequence types for storing machine values in a space-efficient manner without boxing.

A specialized vector type needs to be generated for each element type. This is done with parsing words:
SPECIALIZED-VECTOR:

SPECIALIZED-VECTORS:


Specialized vector words
Passing specialized vectors to C functions

This vocabulary also contains special vector operations for making efficient use of specialized vector types:
push-new ( vector -- new )


The specialized-arrays vocabulary provides a fixed-length version of this abstraction.
