I was reading about the rope data structure.I am interested in building a text editor using C++ and Qt. My question is: Does built-in string manipulating functions in programming languages like C++ use the rope data structure? Or do I need to write my own code for implementing ropes so that I can perform string operations like concatenation and deletion more efficiently?
std::stringis not a rope, but SGI STL providesrope.If you plan on implementing your own rope, I’d recommend SGI’s rope implementation overview for some implementation details.
