Package treap implements a treap data structure that is used to hold ordered
|
|
key/value pairs using a combination of binary search tree and heap semantics.
|
|
It is a self-organizing and randomized data structure that doesn't require
|
|
complex operations to to maintain balance. Search, insert, and delete
|
|
operations are all O(log n). Both mutable and immutable variants are provided.
|
|
|
|
The mutable variant is typically faster since it is able to simply update the
|
|
treap when modifications are made. However, a mutable treap is not safe for
|
|
concurrent access without careful use of locking by the caller and care must be
|
|
taken when iterating since it can change out from under the iterator.
|
|
|
|
The immutable variant works by creating a new version of the treap for all
|
|
mutations by replacing modified nodes with new nodes that have updated values
|
|
while sharing all unmodified nodes with the previous version. This is extremely
|
|
useful in concurrent applications since the caller only has to atomically
|
|
replace the treap pointer with the newly returned version after performing any
|
|
mutations. All readers can simply use their existing pointer as a snapshot
|
|
since the treap it points to is immutable. This effectively provides O(1)
|
|
snapshot capability with efficient memory usage characteristics since the old
|
|
nodes only remain allocated until there are no longer any references to them.
