QuadHeap< PR, IM, CMP > Class Template Reference

Detailed Description

template<typename PR, typename IM, typename CMP>
class lemon::QuadHeap< PR, IM, CMP >

This class implements the Fourary (quaternary) heap data structure. It fully conforms to the heap concept.

The fourary heap is a specialization of the D-ary heap for D=4. It is similar to the binary heap, but its nodes have at most four children, instead of two.

Template Parameters:

PR	Type of the priorities of the items.
IM	A read-writable item map with int values, used internally to handle the cross references.
CMP	A functor class for comparing the priorities. The default is std::less<PR>.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum State

Each item has a state associated to it. It can be "in heap", "pre-heap" or "post-heap". The latter two are indifferent from the heap's point of view, but may be useful to the user.

The item-int map must be initialized in such way that it assigns PRE_HEAP (-1) to any element to be put in the heap.

Enumerator:

IN_HEAP	= 0.
PRE_HEAP	= -1.
POST_HEAP	= -2.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QuadHeap

(

ItemIntMap &

map

)

[inline, explicit]

Constructor.

Parameters:

map	A map that assigns int values to the items. It is used internally to handle the cross references. The assigned value must be PRE_HEAP (-1) for each item.

QuadHeap	(	ItemIntMap &	map,
		const Compare &	comp
	)		[inline]

Constructor.

Parameters:

map	A map that assigns int values to the items. It is used internally to handle the cross references. The assigned value must be PRE_HEAP (-1) for each item.
comp	The function object used for comparing the priorities.

Member Function Documentation

int size

(

)

const [inline]

This function returns the number of items stored in the heap.

bool empty

(

)

const [inline]

This function returns true if the heap is empty.

void clear

(

)

[inline]

This functon makes the heap empty. It does not change the cross reference map. If you want to reuse a heap that is not surely empty, you should first clear it and then you should set the cross reference map to PRE_HEAP for each item.

void push

(

const Pair &

p

)

[inline]

This function inserts p.first to the heap with priority p.second.

Parameters:

p	The pair to insert.

Precondition:

p.first must not be stored in the heap.

void push	(	const Item &	i,
		const Prio &	p
	)		[inline]

This function inserts the given item into the heap with the given priority.

Parameters:

i	The item to insert.
p	The priority of the item.

Precondition:

i must not be stored in the heap.

Item top

(

)

const [inline]

This function returns the item having minimum priority.

Precondition:

The heap must be non-empty.

Prio prio

(

)

const [inline]

This function returns the minimum priority.

Precondition:

The heap must be non-empty.

void pop

(

)

[inline]

This function removes the item having minimum priority.

Precondition:

The heap must be non-empty.

void erase

(

const Item &

i

)

[inline]

This function removes the given item from the heap if it is already stored.

Parameters:

i	The item to delete.

Precondition:

i must be in the heap.

Prio operator[]

(

const Item &

i

)

const [inline]

This function returns the priority of the given item.

Parameters:

i

The item.

Precondition:

i must be in the heap.

void set	(	const Item &	i,
		const Prio &	p
	)		[inline]

This method sets the priority of the given item if it is already stored in the heap. Otherwise it inserts the given item into the heap with the given priority.

Parameters:

i	The item.
p	The priority.

void decrease	(	const Item &	i,
		const Prio &	p
	)		[inline]

This function decreases the priority of an item to the given value.

Parameters:

i	The item.
p	The priority.

Precondition:

i must be stored in the heap with priority at least p.

void increase	(	const Item &	i,
		const Prio &	p
	)		[inline]

This function increases the priority of an item to the given value.

Parameters:

i	The item.
p	The priority.

Precondition:

i must be stored in the heap with priority at most p.

State state

(

const Item &

i

)

const [inline]

This method returns PRE_HEAP if the given item has never been in the heap, IN_HEAP if it is in the heap at the moment, and POST_HEAP otherwise. In the latter case it is possible that the item will get back to the heap again.

Parameters:

i

The item.

void state	(	const Item &	i,
		State	st
	)		[inline]

This function sets the state of the given item in the heap. It can be used to manually clear the heap when it is important to achive better time complexity.

Parameters:

i	The item.
st	The state. It should not be IN_HEAP.

void replace	(	const Item &	i,
		const Item &	j
	)		[inline]

This function replaces item i with item j. Item i must be in the heap, while j must be out of the heap. After calling this method, item i will be out of the heap and j will be in the heap with the same prioriority as item i had before.
