"""Heap queue algorithm (a.k.a. priority queue).
|
|
|
|
Heaps are arrays for which a[k] <= a[2*k+1] and a[k] <= a[2*k+2] for
|
|
all k, counting elements from 0. For the sake of comparison,
|
|
non-existing elements are considered to be infinite. The interesting
|
|
property of a heap is that a[0] is always its smallest element.
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
|
|
heap = [] # creates an empty heap
|
|
heappush(heap, item) # pushes a new item on the heap
|
|
item = heappop(heap) # pops the smallest item from the heap
|
|
item = heap[0] # smallest item on the heap without popping it
|
|
heapify(x) # transforms list into a heap, in-place, in linear time
|
|
item = heapreplace(heap, item) # pops and returns smallest item, and adds
|
|
# new item; the heap size is unchanged
|
|
|
|
Our API differs from textbook heap algorithms as follows:
|
|
|
|
- We use 0-based indexing. This makes the relationship between the
|
|
index for a node and the indexes for its children slightly less
|
|
obvious, but is more suitable since Python uses 0-based indexing.
|
|
|
|
- Our heappop() method returns the smallest item, not the largest.
|
|
|
|
These two make it possible to view the heap as a regular Python list
|
|
without surprises: heap[0] is the smallest item, and heap.sort()
|
|
maintains the heap invariant!

[explanation by François Pinard]
|
|
|
|
Heaps are arrays for which a[k] <= a[2*k+1] and a[k] <= a[2*k+2] for
|
|
all k, counting elements from 0. For the sake of comparison,
|
|
non-existing elements are considered to be infinite. The interesting
|
|
property of a heap is that a[0] is always its smallest element.
|
|
|
|
The strange invariant above is meant to be an efficient memory
|
|
representation for a tournament. The numbers below are `k', not a[k]:
|
|
|
|
0
|
|
|
|
1 2
|
|
|
|
3 4 5 6
|
|
|
|
7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
|
|
|
|
15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the tree above, each cell `k' is topping `2*k+1' and `2*k+2'. In
|
|
an usual binary tournament we see in sports, each cell is the winner
|
|
over the two cells it tops, and we can trace the winner down the tree
|
|
to see all opponents s/he had. However, in many computer applications
|
|
of such tournaments, we do not need to trace the history of a winner.
|
|
To be more memory efficient, when a winner is promoted, we try to
|
|
replace it by something else at a lower level, and the rule becomes
|
|
that a cell and the two cells it tops contain three different items,
|
|
but the top cell "wins" over the two topped cells.
|
|
|
|
If this heap invariant is protected at all time, index 0 is clearly
|
|
the overall winner. The simplest algorithmic way to remove it and
|
|
find the "next" winner is to move some loser (let's say cell 30 in the
|
|
diagram above) into the 0 position, and then percolate this new 0 down
|
|
the tree, exchanging values, until the invariant is re-established.
|
|
This is clearly logarithmic on the total number of items in the tree.
|
|
By iterating over all items, you get an O(n ln n) sort.
|
|
|
|
A nice feature of this sort is that you can efficiently insert new
|
|
items while the sort is going on, provided that the inserted items are
|
|
not "better" than the last 0'th element you extracted. This is
|
|
especially useful in simulation contexts, where the tree holds all
|
|
incoming events, and the "win" condition means the smallest scheduled
|
|
time. When an event schedule other events for execution, they are
|
|
scheduled into the future, so they can easily go into the heap. So, a
|
|
heap is a good structure for implementing schedulers (this is what I
|
|
used for my MIDI sequencer :-).
|
|
|
|
Various structures for implementing schedulers have been extensively
|
|
studied, and heaps are good for this, as they are reasonably speedy,
|
|
the speed is almost constant, and the worst case is not much different
|
|
than the average case. However, there are other representations which
|
|
are more efficient overall, yet the worst cases might be terrible.
|
|
|
|
Heaps are also very useful in big disk sorts. You most probably all
|
|
know that a big sort implies producing "runs" (which are pre-sorted
|
|
sequences, which size is usually related to the amount of CPU memory),
|
|
followed by a merging passes for these runs, which merging is often
|
|
very cleverly organised[1]. It is very important that the initial
|
|
sort produces the longest runs possible. Tournaments are a good way
|
|
to that. If, using all the memory available to hold a tournament, you
|
|
replace and percolate items that happen to fit the current run, you'll
|
|
produce runs which are twice the size of the memory for random input,
|
|
and much better for input fuzzily ordered.
|
|
|
|
Moreover, if you output the 0'th item on disk and get an input which
|
|
may not fit in the current tournament (because the value "wins" over
|
|
the last output value), it cannot fit in the heap, so the size of the
|
|
heap decreases. The freed memory could be cleverly reused immediately
|
|
for progressively building a second heap, which grows at exactly the
|
|
same rate the first heap is melting. When the first heap completely
|
|
vanishes, you switch heaps and start a new run. Clever and quite
|
|
effective!
|
|
|
|
In a word, heaps are useful memory structures to know. I use them in
|
|
a few applications, and I think it is good to keep a `heap' module
|
|
around. :-)
|
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
[1] The disk balancing algorithms which are current, nowadays, are
|
|
more annoying than clever, and this is a consequence of the seeking
|
|
capabilities of the disks. On devices which cannot seek, like big
|
|
tape drives, the story was quite different, and one had to be very
|
|
clever to ensure (far in advance) that each tape movement will be the
|
|
most effective possible (that is, will best participate at
|
|
"progressing" the merge). Some tapes were even able to read
|
|
backwards, and this was also used to avoid the rewinding time.
|
|
Believe me, real good tape sorts were quite spectacular to watch!
|
|
From all times, sorting has always been a Great Art! :-)
