# MutableCollection Implementations ## Topics ### Instance Methods [`func moveSubranges(RangeSet, to: Self.Index) -> Range`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/moveSubranges(_:to:)) Moves the elements in the given subranges to just before the element at the specified index. [`func partition(by: (Self.Element) throws -> Bool) rethrows -> Self.Index`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/partition(by:)-2g3t0) Reorders the elements of the collection such that all the elements that match the given predicate are after all the elements that don’t match. [`func partition(by: (Self.Element) throws -> Bool) rethrows -> Self.Index`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/partition(by:)-2uabq) Reorders the elements of the collection such that all the elements that match the given predicate are after all the elements that don’t match. [`func removeSubranges(RangeSet)`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/removeSubranges(_:)-5ci4m) Removes the elements at the given indices. [`func reverse()`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/reverse()) Reverses the elements of the collection in place. [`func shuffle()`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/shuffle()) Shuffles the collection in place. [`func shuffle(using: inout T)`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/shuffle(using:)) Shuffles the collection in place, using the given generator as a source for randomness. [`func sort()`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/sort()) Sorts the collection in place. [`func sort(by: (Self.Element, Self.Element) throws -> Bool) rethrows`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/sort(by:)) Sorts the collection in place, using the given predicate as the comparison between elements. [`func swapAt(Self.Index, Self.Index)`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/swapAt(_:_:)) Exchanges the values at the specified indices of the collection. [`func withContiguousMutableStorageIfAvailable((inout UnsafeMutableBufferPointer) throws -> R) rethrows -> R?`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/withContiguousMutableStorageIfAvailable(_:)) Executes a closure on the collection’s contiguous storage. [`func withContiguousMutableStorageIfAvailable((inout UnsafeMutableBufferPointer) throws -> R) rethrows -> R?`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/withContiguousMutableStorageIfAvailable(_:)-5k8vo) Executes a closure on the collection’s contiguous storage. ### Subscripts [`subscript(UnboundedRange) -> Self.SubSequence`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/subscript(_:)-17v9t) [`subscript(Range) -> Self.SubSequence`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/subscript(_:)-27a3j) [`subscript(Range) -> Slice`](/documentation/Swift/ContiguousArray/subscript(_:)-6knxt) Accesses a contiguous subrange of the collection’s elements.
