Description

Ds\Vector::allocate(int $capacity): void

Ensures that enough memory is allocated for a required capacity. This removes the need to reallocate the internal buffer as values are added.

capacity: The number of values for which capacity should be allocated.
Note
Capacity will stay the same if this value is less than or equal to the current capacity.

<?php
$vector = new \Ds\Vector();
var_dump($vector->capacity());

$vector->allocate(100);
var_dump($vector->capacity());
?>
