# OrderedCollections
[](https://hex.pm/packages/ordered_collections)
[](LICENSE)
**OrderedCollections** is a library for Elixir that provides efficient, sorted data structures:
- **SortedMap:** A key-value store that maintains keys in sorted order, implemented as a thin wrapper around Erlang's `:gb_trees`.
## Features
- **SortedMap**
- Insert, update, and delete key-value pairs while preserving sorted order.
- Fast lookups using `:gb_trees` (O(log n) performance).
- Range queries over keys.
- Conversion to standard Elixir `Map` or list.
## Installation
Add `ordered_collections` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:ordered_collections, "~> 0.1.1"}
]
end
```
