class Chemystal::MoleculeSoup

Overview

A Molecule Soup is a Hash from the molecules name to a deque of molecules having that same name

The use of a deque is to have FIFO, such that no old molecules are left floating around in the soup

#add_molecule(molecule : Molecule)
Adds a molecule to the soup
#get_molecules_with_name(name : String) : Deque(Molecule)
Gets all molecules with the name
#has_molecule_with_name(name : String) : Bool
Checks if at least one molecule with the name is in the soup
#use_molecule_with_name(name : String) : Molecule | Nil
Consumes one molecule withe the name, returning it and removing it from the soup
