It now also conforms to Sasa's standard collection semantics, namely the publicly exported type is a struct, so null reference errors are impossible, and it provides an atomic swap operation for concurrent use. Here's the API: /// <summary> /// An immutable hash-array mapped trie. /// </summary> /// <typeparam name="K">The type of keys.</typeparam> /// <typeparam name="T">The type of values.</typeparam> public struct Tree<K, T> : IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<K, T>>, IAtomic<Tree<K, T>> { /// <summary> /// The empty tree. /// </summary> public static Tre
