I’m pleased to announce that my company has released our first modest contribution back to the Clojure community.  

In brief, this library provides “interval map”,  “interval set”, “ordered-set”, and “ordered-map” collections, but more fundamentally we use this as a library for building efficient, ordered collection types on an extensible weight-balanced tree. 

This code has been in production for a few years now, however it is still young in terms of a publicly released data-structure  library.   Comments and suggestions are, of course, very much welcome!

Best,

Very cool, thanks for sharing!

This looks like it would be perfect for Advent of Code puzzles. Out of
curiosity, what are real-life problems that benefit from the use of an
interval map?

I agree that would be a useful addition to the README.  Well, maybe one practical example could be if you had a situation where you scheduled various overlapping shifts of employees and you wanted to know who was on duty at a particular time.  Or all of the people on duty during some portion of a given timeframe.
