BinomialHeap< PR, IM, CMP > Class Template Reference
Heap Structures

## Detailed Description

### template<typename PR, typename IM, typename CMP>
class lemon::BinomialHeap< PR, IM, CMP >

This class implements the binomial heap data structure. It fully conforms to the heap concept.

The methods increase() and erase() are not efficient in a binomial heap. In case of many calls of these operations, it is better to use other heap structure, e.g. binary heap.

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>`.

`#include <lemon/binomial_heap.h>`

## 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

BinomialHeap | ( | ItemIntMap & | map | ) |
| inlineexplicit

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.

BinomialHeap | ( | 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 set | ( | const Item & | item,
|  | const Prio & | value
| ) |  |
| 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

  item | The item.
  value | The priority.

void push | ( | const Item & | item,
|  | const Prio & | value
| ) |  |
| inline

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

Parameters

  item | The item to insert.
  value | The priority of the item.

Precondition
  item 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.

const Prio& operator[] | ( | const Item & | item | ) | const
| inline

This function returns the priority of the given item.

Parameters

  item | The item.

Precondition
  item must be in the heap.

void pop | ( |  | ) |
| inline

This function removes the item having minimum priority.

Precondition
  The heap must be non-empty.

void erase | ( | const Item & | item | ) |
| inline

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

Parameters

  item | The item to delete.

Precondition
  item must be in the heap.

void decrease | ( | Item | item,
|  | const Prio & | value
| ) |  |
| inline

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

Parameters

  item | The item.
  value | The priority.

Precondition
  item must be stored in the heap with priority at least value.

void increase | ( | Item | item,
|  | const Prio & | value
| ) |  |
| inline

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

Parameters

  item | The item.
  value | The priority.

Precondition
  item must be stored in the heap with priority at most value.

State state | ( | const Item & | item | ) | 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

  item | 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`.
