In Depth

A binary heap is a heap data structure that takes the form of a binary tree, defined with two additional constraints:

  • Shape property: A binary heap is a complete binary tree, that is all levels, except possibly the last one / deepest are fully filled, and if the last level of the tree is not complete, the nodes of that level are filled from left to right.

  • Heap property: The key stored in each node is either greater than or equal to or less than or equal to the keys in the node's children, according to the maximum & minimum total orders, respectively.

Heaps, where the parent key is greater than or equal to the child keys are called max-heaps, and those where it is less than or equal to are called min-heaps.

Mheap binary min & max heaps are internally implemented with an array, where nodes are stored by the level order traversal of the heap and the root node is always placed at index 0. This is due to the fact that any binary tree can be stored in an array, but because a binary heap is always a complete binary tree, it can be compactly & uniquely represented by storing its level order traversal in an array. As a result, no space is required for pointers, instead, the parent and children of each node are found by arithmetic calculations on array indices.

Usage

Mheap exposes a chainable API, that can be utilized through a simple and minimal syntax, allowing you to combine methods effectively.

Usage examples can be also found at the test directory.

'use strict';
const {MaxHeap, MinHeap, Node} = require('mheap');

const maxHeap = new MaxHeap();
//=> MaxHeap { data: [] }

maxHeap.insert(15, 'A');
//=> MaxHeap { data: [Node { key: 15, value: 'A' }] }

maxHeap.root;
//=> Node { key: 15, value: 'A' }

const node = new Node(15, 'A');

maxHeap.root.toPair();
//=> [15, 'A']

maxHeap.root.key === node.key;
//=> true

maxHeap.root.value === node.value;
//=> true

maxHeap.insert(10, 'B').insert(5, 'C');
//=> MaxHeap { data: [
// Node { key: 15, value: 'A' },
// Node { key: 10, value: 'B' },
// Node { key: 5, value: 'C' } ] }

maxHeap.left(0);
//=> Node { key: 10, value: 'B' }

maxHeap.right(0);
//=> Node { key: 5, value: 'C' }

maxHeap.insert(7, 'D').insert(8, 'E').insert(2, 'F');

//=> MaxHeap { data: [
// Node { key: 15, value: 'A' },
// Node { key: 8, value: 'E' },
// Node { key: 5, value: 'C' },
// Node { key: 7, value: 'D' },
// Node { key: 2, value: 'F' } ] }

maxHeap.children(0);
//=> { left: Node { key: 8, value: 'E' },
// right: Node { key: 5, value: 'C' } }

maxHeap.extractMax();
//=> Node { key: 15, value: 'A' }

  • Type: Any

The new value that will be stored in the existing node.

heap.insert(15, 'A').insert(10, 'B')
//=> Heap { data: [ 
// Node { key: 15, value: 'A' },
// Node { key: 10, value: 'A' } ] }
heap.update(10, 'a').insert(10, 'b');
//=> Heap { data: [ 
// Node { key: 15, value: 'a' },
// Node { key: 10, value: 'b' } ] }

heap.values()

  • Return Type: Array<Any>

Applies level order traversal to the heap and stores the value of each traversed node in an array. The array is returned at the end of the traversal.

heap.insert(15, 'A').insert(10, 'B').insert(5, 'C').insert(8, 'D');
//=> [ 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' ]

Also available, along with the MaxHeap & MinHeap exposed classes, is the Node class, mainly useful for testing purposes, since it can be utilized to compare heap nodes. The class has a binary constructor method, with a key and a value parameter, corresponding to the key and the value stored in the created instance, respectively.

node.key

  • Return Type: Number

The key corresponding to the node instance.

const {Node} = require('mheap');

const node = new Node(10, 'A');
// => Node { key:10, value: 'A' }
node.key;
//=> 10

node.value

  • Return Type: Any

The value that the node contains.

const {Node} = require('mheap');

const node = new Node(10, 'A');
// => Node { key: 10, value: 'A' }
node.value;
//=> 'A'
node.value = 'B'
// => Node { key: 10, value: 'B' }

node.toPair()

  • Return Type: [Number, Any]

Returns an ordered-pair/2-tuple, where the first element is a number corresponding to the key of the node, and the last one is a value, that can be of any type, corresponding to the value stored in the node.

const {Node} = require('mheap');


const node = new Node(5, 'B');

node.toPair();
//=> [ 5, 'B' ]
