Guides/Chunked.md: [proposed](proposal) link is a leftover placeholder #279

Open

Description

@ZayanKhan-12

Guides/Chunked.md line 48 reads:

The chunks(ofCount:) method was previously proposed for inclusion

The link target is the literal string proposal, so the rendered link 404s (https://github.com/apple/swift-algorithms/blob/main/Guides/proposal). It appears to be a placeholder that never got filled in with the actual Swift Evolution proposal URL — presumably SE-0270's predecessor pitch, i.e. the standard-library proposal for chunks(ofCount:) or the corresponding forums pitch, whichever the maintainers intended.

Filed as requested by @glessard in #277 (comment) (review of the Keyed.md link fix). Happy to open a PR once the intended target is confirmed.

    The placeholder link [proposed](proposal) in Guides/Chunked.md (line 48) refers to the standard-library collection operations proposal from Swift Evolution:

    Target URL:
    https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals/0270-rangeset-and-collection-operations.md

    Context

    When SE-0270 (Add Collection Operations on Noncontiguous Elements) was reviewed, the core RangeSet APIs were accepted into the standard library while broader collection algorithms (such as chunks(ofCount:) and chunked(by:)) were deferred to the standalone swift-algorithms package.

    A pull request addressing this broken link has been opened at apple/swift-algorithms #282.
