This PR contains a couple of minor improvements. The most important change is in Reactive. I found a bug in my implementation which only happens when FlatFat contains only one element which is both a leaf and a root node. When updating a leaf node, I need to access its parent. The program crashed because the root node has no parent. Reactive now ensures that a leaf cannot be a root by never resizing if there is only one element in the window. This is the part of the Reactive algorithm I'm referring to. The bug happened when
leaf(loci) = T.root.I realised I also somehow forgot to make the Reactive-FlatFat buffer circular 👀 It should be fixed now.
The PR in addition adds some small extension methods to FifoWindows:
lenmethod for calculating the number of elements in a window.is_emptymethod for calculating if a window is empty.
