Trait core::ops::Div1.0.0 [] [src]

pub trait Div<RHS = Self> {
    type Output;
    fn div(self, rhs: RHS) -> Self::Output;
}

The Div trait is used to specify the functionality of /.

Examples

Implementing a Dividable rational number struct:

use std::ops::Div; // The uniqueness of rational numbers in lowest terms is a consequence of // the fundamental theorem of arithmetic. #[derive(Eq)] #[derive(PartialEq, Debug)] struct Rational { nominator: usize, denominator: usize, } impl Rational { fn new(nominator: usize, denominator: usize) -> Self { if denominator == 0 { panic!("Zero is an invalid denominator!"); } // Reduce to lowest terms by dividing by the greatest common // divisor. let gcd = gcd(nominator, denominator); Rational { nominator: nominator / gcd, denominator: denominator / gcd, } } } impl Div for Rational { // The division of rational numbers is a closed operation. type Output = Self; fn div(self, rhs: Self) -> Self { if rhs.nominator == 0 { panic!("Cannot divide by zero-valued `Rational`!"); } let nominator = self.nominator * rhs.denominator; let denominator = self.denominator * rhs.nominator; Rational::new(nominator, denominator) } } // Euclid's two-thousand-year-old algorithm for finding the greatest common // divisor. fn gcd(x: usize, y: usize) -> usize { let mut x = x; let mut y = y; while y != 0 { let t = y; y = x % y; x = t; } x } fn main() { assert_eq!(Rational::new(1, 2), Rational::new(2, 4)); assert_eq!(Rational::new(1, 2) / Rational::new(3, 4), Rational::new(2, 3)); }
use std::ops::Div;

// The uniqueness of rational numbers in lowest terms is a consequence of
// the fundamental theorem of arithmetic.
#[derive(Eq)]
#[derive(PartialEq, Debug)]
struct Rational {
    nominator: usize,
    denominator: usize,
}

impl Rational {
    fn new(nominator: usize, denominator: usize) -> Self {
        if denominator == 0 {
            panic!("Zero is an invalid denominator!");
        }

        // Reduce to lowest terms by dividing by the greatest common
        // divisor.
        let gcd = gcd(nominator, denominator);
        Rational {
            nominator: nominator / gcd,
            denominator: denominator / gcd,
        }
    }
}

impl Div for Rational {
    // The division of rational numbers is a closed operation.
    type Output = Self;

    fn div(self, rhs: Self) -> Self {
        if rhs.nominator == 0 {
            panic!("Cannot divide by zero-valued `Rational`!");
        }

        let nominator = self.nominator * rhs.denominator;
        let denominator = self.denominator * rhs.nominator;
        Rational::new(nominator, denominator)
    }
}

// Euclid's two-thousand-year-old algorithm for finding the greatest common
// divisor.
fn gcd(x: usize, y: usize) -> usize {
    let mut x = x;
    let mut y = y;
    while y != 0 {
        let t = y;
        y = x % y;
        x = t;
    }
    x
}

fn main() {
    assert_eq!(Rational::new(1, 2), Rational::new(2, 4));
    assert_eq!(Rational::new(1, 2) / Rational::new(3, 4),
               Rational::new(2, 3));
}Run

Note that RHS = Self by default, but this is not mandatory. Here is an implementation which enables division of vectors by scalars, as is done in linear algebra.

fn main() { use std::ops::Div; struct Scalar {value: f32}; #[derive(Debug)] struct Vector {value: Vec<f32>}; impl Div<Scalar> for Vector { type Output = Vector; fn div(self, rhs: Scalar) -> Vector { Vector {value: self.value.iter().map(|v| v / rhs.value).collect()} } } impl PartialEq<Vector> for Vector { fn eq(&self, other: &Self) -> bool { self.value == other.value } } let scalar = Scalar{value: 2f32}; let vector = Vector{value: vec![2f32, 4f32, 6f32]}; assert_eq!(vector / scalar, Vector{value: vec![1f32, 2f32, 3f32]}); }
use std::ops::Div;

struct Scalar {value: f32};

#[derive(Debug)]
struct Vector {value: Vec<f32>};

impl Div<Scalar> for Vector {
    type Output = Vector;

    fn div(self, rhs: Scalar) -> Vector {
        Vector {value: self.value.iter().map(|v| v / rhs.value).collect()}
    }
}

impl PartialEq<Vector> for Vector {
    fn eq(&self, other: &Self) -> bool {
        self.value == other.value
    }
}

let scalar = Scalar{value: 2f32};
let vector = Vector{value: vec![2f32, 4f32, 6f32]};
assert_eq!(vector / scalar, Vector{value: vec![1f32, 2f32, 3f32]});Run
