It is a building block // for rotation and sequence manipulation. // // METHOD // Swap the leftmost and rightmost unprocessed values, then move both pointers inward. // Everything outside the pointers is already in its final reversed position. // // COMPLEXITY // O(n) time and O(1) auxiliary space. // // CONTRACT // Reverses n elements in place and returns 0. Empty arrays and single elements are valid. // Public APIs infer array lengths except in C, which accepts pointer/length pairs. Vertex // counts and matrix dimensions remain explicit. Arrays must contain signed 32-bit integers. // Sorted order, correct tree topology, and caller-owned data-structure invariants are // preconditions; checking them on every query would change query complexity. // Scalar and shape checks are included. Value-range checks are included where needed to // prevent invalid indexing or nontermination. Allocation sizes are capped at 4,000,000 // workspace entries. Arithmetic outside Python raises an error on 32-bit overflow; Python // uses arbitrary precision. Native allocation failures propagate. In-place outputs may be // partly updated after arithmetic failure. These are single-threaded, in-memory // implementations. // // LANGUAGE DETAILS // Node.js 18+: Int32Array inputs and workspaces provide compact integer storage. Automatic // lengths and checked arithmetic reject values outside signed 32-bit. Invalid inputs or // overflow throw RangeError. // // EXAMPLE // Expected return: 0. // Expected a after call: [3, 2, 1]. // Run: node example.js // Tests for this exact source artifact run before publication. The accompanying source // archive includes unit cases, runtime results, and source hashes. function alg_require(valid) { if (!valid) throw new RangeError("invalid algorithm input"); } function alg_checked(v) { if (!Number.isInteger(v) || v < -2147483648 || v > 2147483647) throw new RangeError("32-bit result overflow"); return v; } function alg_add(a,b) { return alg_checked(a+b); } function alg_sub(a,b) { return alg_checked(a-b); } function alg_mul(a,b) { return alg_checked(a*b); } function alg_size(n) { alg_require(Number.isInteger(n) && n>=0 && n<=4000000); return n; } function reverse_array(a) { alg_require(a instanceof Int32Array); let n = a.length; alg_require(((n >= 0) && (n <= 1000000))); alg_require((a.length == n)); let left = 0; let right = alg_sub(n, 1); let temp = 0; while ((left < right)) { temp = a[left]; a[left] = a[right]; a[right] = temp; left = alg_add(left, 1); right = alg_sub(right, 1); } return 0; } let a = new Int32Array([1, 2, 3]); let result = reverse_array(a); console.log(result); console.log(a); // Expected a: [3, 2, 1] |
