fibonacci-heap

C implementation of a fibonacci heap.

This implementation is loosly based on the python files shown in these videos by Michael Sambol but with some improvements in efficiency.

The following functions for a fibonacci heap are implemented:

• insert
• minimum
• remove_minimum
• change_value
• remove_node

Also a print_heap() function is provided that outputs the current heap to console.

An example of what can be done is:

    insert(7);
    insert(10);
    insert(9);
    insert(4);
    insert(5);
    insert(3);
    insert(8);
    print_heap();
    while (node_t *node = remove_minimum()) {
        free(node);
    }

which will give the following output

7-10-9-4-5-3-8

removing minimum: 3
