std::ranges::push_heap

Defined in header <algorithm>
Call signature
template< std::random_access_iterator I, std::sentinel_for<I> S,
          class Comp = ranges::less, class Proj = std::identity >
requires std::sortable<I, Comp, Proj>
constexpr I
push_heap( I first, S last, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} );
(1) (since C++20)
template< ranges::random_access_range R, class Comp = ranges::less,
          class Proj = std::identity >
requires std::sortable<ranges::iterator_t<R>, Comp, Proj>
constexpr ranges::borrowed_iterator_t<R>
push_heap( R&& r, Comp comp = {}, Proj proj = {} );
(2) (since C++20)

Inserts the element at the position last-1 into the max heap defined by the range [first, last-1).

1) Elements are compared using the given binary comparison function comp and projection object proj.
2) Same as (1), but uses r as the range, as if using ranges::begin(r) as first and ranges::end(r) as last.

The function-like entities described on this page are niebloids, that is:

In practice, they may be implemented as function objects, or with special compiler extensions.

Parameters

first, last - the range of elements defining the heap to modify
r - the range of elements defining the heap to modify
pred - predicate to apply to the projected elements
proj - projection to apply to the elements

Return value

An iterator equal to last.

Complexity

Given N = ranges::distance(first, last), at most \(\scriptsize \log{(N)}\)log(N) comparisons and \(\scriptsize 2\log{(N)}\)2log(N) projections.

Notes

A max heap is a range of elements [f, l), arranged with respect to comparator comp and projection proj, that has the following properties:

  • With N = l-f, p = f[(i-1)/2], and q = f[i], for all 0 < i < N, the expression std::invoke(comp, std::invoke(proj, p), std::invoke(proj, q)) evaluates to false.
  • A new element can be added using ranges::push_heap, in \(\scriptsize \mathcal{O}(\log N)\)𝓞(log N) time.
  • The first element can be removed using ranges::pop_heap, in \(\scriptsize \mathcal{O}(\log N)\)𝓞(log N) time.

Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <cmath>
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
 
void out(const auto& what, int n = 1) {
    while (n-- > 0)
        std::cout << what;
}
 
void print(auto rem, auto const& v) {
    out(rem);
    for (auto e : v) { out(e), out(' '); }
    out('\n');
}
 
void draw_heap(auto const& v);
 
int main()
{
    std::vector<int> v { 1, 6, 1, 8, 0, 3, };
    print("source vector v: ", v);
 
    std::ranges::make_heap(v);
    print("after make_heap: ", v);
    draw_heap(v);
 
    v.push_back(9);
 
    print("before push_heap: ", v);
    draw_heap(v);
 
    std::ranges::push_heap(v);
    print("after push_heap: ", v);
    draw_heap(v);
}
 
void draw_heap(auto const& v)
{
    auto bails = [](int n, int w) {
        auto b = [](int w) { out("┌"), out("─", w), out("┴"), out("─", w), out("┐"); };
        if (!(n /= 2)) return;
        for (out(' ', w); n-- > 0; ) b(w), out(' ', w + w + 1);
        out('\n');
    };
    auto data = [](int n, int w, auto& first, auto last) {
        for(out(' ', w); n-- > 0 && first != last; ++first)
            out(*first), out(' ', w + w + 1);
        out('\n');
    };
    auto tier = [&](int t, int m, auto& first, auto last) {
        const int n {1 << t};
        const int w {(1 << (m - t - 1)) - 1};
        bails(n, w), data(n, w, first, last);
    };
    const int m {static_cast<int>(std::ceil(std::log2(1 + v.size())))};
    auto first {v.cbegin()};
    for (int i{}; i != m; ++i) { tier(i, m, first, v.cend()); }
}
