Albatross.Collections

A .NET library providing extension methods for collections including batching, searching, merging, and efficient list manipulation.

Installation

dotnet add package Albatross.Collections

Quick Start

Batching

using Albatross.Collections;

var numbers = Enumerable.Range(1, 10);
foreach (var batch in numbers.Batch(3)) {
    Console.WriteLine(string.Join(", ", batch));
}
// Output: 1, 2, 3
//         4, 5, 6
//         7, 8, 9
//         10

Dictionary Operations

var cache = new Dictionary<string, int>();
var value = cache.GetOrAdd("key", () => ComputeExpensiveValue());

if (cache.TryGetAndRemove("key", out var removed)) {
    Console.WriteLine($"Removed: {removed}");
}

List Item Removal

var list = new List<int> { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
var removed = list.RemoveAny(x => x % 2 == 0);
// list: [1, 3, 5], removed: [2, 4]

Binary Search (sorted data)

var sorted = new int[] { 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 };

var result = sorted.BinarySearchFirstValueGreaterOrEqual(6, x => x);
Console.WriteLine(result); // 7

var result2 = sorted.BinarySearchFirstValueLessOrEqual(6, x => x);
Console.WriteLine(result2); // 5

Collection Merging (Full Outer Join)

var existing = new[] { new { Id = 1, Name = "A" }, new { Id = 2, Name = "B" } };
var incoming = new[] { new { Id = 2, Name = "B2" }, new { Id = 3, Name = "C" } };

existing.Merge(incoming,
    src => src.Id,
    dst => dst.Id,
    (src, dst) => Console.WriteLine($"Update: {dst.Name} -> {src.Name}"),
    src => Console.WriteLine($"Add: {src.Name}"),
    dst => Console.WriteLine($"Remove: {dst.Name}"));
// Output: Update: B -> B2
//         Remove: A
//         Add: C
