node-treap

An implementation of the treap data structure for node.js and the browser

Treaps

Treaps are self-balancing binary trees which combine the properties of heaps and binary search trees. Each node has a key, which follows binary search tree ordering, and a priority, which follows heap ordering. Treaps can be used to efficiently implement sets and sorted lists, among other things.

Example

var treap = require('treap');
var t = treap.create();

// Insert some keys, augmented with data fields
t.insert(5, {foo: 12});
t.insert(2, {foo: 8});
t.insert(7, {foo: 1000});

// Look up treap elements
var a = t.find(5);
var b = t.findRank(1);

console.log(a.key, a.data); // 5 { foo: 12 }
console.log(b.key, b.data); // 2 { foo: 8 }

// Remove treap elements
t.remove(a); // by reference to node
t.remove(7); // by key

Module Methods

Treap Methods

<tr>
  <th>find(key)</th> 
  <td>Returns the node with the given key, or null if no such node exists. The node object contains <code>key</code>
  and <code>data</code> fields, as wells as fields for navigating the search tree: <code>left</code>, <code>right</code>,
  and <code>parent</code>.</td>
</tr>

<tr>
  <th>remove(key), remove(node)</th> 
  <td>Remove the node with the given numeric <code>key</code>, or the given <code>node</code> itself</td>
</tr>

<tr>
  <th>findRange(from, to)</th> 
  <td>Returns a list containing all nodes with <code>from</code> &lt;= key &lt;= <code>to</code>.</td>
</tr>

<tr>
  <th>findRank(k)</th> 
  <td>Returns the nodes with the kth smallest key.</td>
</tr>

<tr>
  <th>split(k)</th> 
  <td>Splits the treap into two treaps lTreap and rTreap such that maxKey(lTreap) < k <= minKey(rTreap).
  The two new treaps are retured as the list <code>[lTreap, rTreap]</code>.</td>
</tr>

<tr>
  <th>traverse(fn)</th> 
  <td>Performs an inorder traversal of the tree and executes function <code>fn</code> for each node. <code>fn</code>
  is passed the arguments <code>(node, i)</code>, where <code>i</code> counts the callings of <code>fn</code>.</td>
</tr>

<tr>
  <th>getRoot()</th> 
  <td>Returns the root node.</td>
</tr>

<tr>
  <th>getSize()</th> 
  <td>Returns the number of nodes in the treap.</td>
</tr>

Tests

Tests are written with Mocha and can be run with npm test.
