A max-Heap that utilizes numpy memmaps so memory consumption can be reduced.
Project description
Max - Binary Heap Implementation
PYPI module that provides Max, Binary Heap, functionality.
#Overview Documentation for the Max - Binary Heap Implementation:
0. Preliminary Information
Upon Creating a memmap with one of the two build_heap functions, a directory that will hold the memmap files
will be created. After the build_heap function is finished, an information list will be returned containing
the following elements in order: 1. memmap list, 2. # of Levels, 3. Max Occupied Index value, 4. # of Nodes, 5. Data File reference.
The Developer should not mess with any of these information list elements. Should the developer accidentally tamper with the list values,
there is a recalibration function that will restore the information list; this assumes that the developer does not mess with the
files within the created directory. Should the Data file or any other file be erased, the recalibration function will no longer work,
and the developer should start over with creating a heap.
Additionally, since the heap elements are stored in files, the developer can add any elements he/she wants and continue on the next day
by using the recalibration function to restore the information list.
1. Core Functions:
How to use:
from MaxHeap import FUNCTION_NAME or from MaxHeap import *
def createBTO()
+Creates a memmap matrix of shape:1000 x 1000and returns an INFO list
containing the following: [memmap list, # of Levels, Largest Index, Number of Nodes, Data File]
def getHeightThree(INFO, value)
+Returns the height of a certain value within the tree or None if it can't be found...
+INFO = information list
+value = the node value that will be searched for...
def reCalibrateInfo()
+This function only requires that the user be within the binary tree directory initially created; if not -1 is returned.
-1 is also returned if all of the files within are deleted...
+ No arguments required...
def isFullTree(INFO)
+Returns 1 if the tree is a full tree or -1 if not...
+INFO = information list
def BreadthFirstOne(INFO, value)
+This function uses the breadth first search algorithm to find a specified node value. Three non-negative values will
be returned if the search is successful: x = memmap list component, y = row, z = column -> Or -1, -1, -1 if unseccussful.
+INFO = information list
+value = node value to be searched for...
def getMaxValue(INFO)
+returns the max value or -1 if no values are present.
+INFO = information list
def ExtractMaxValue(INFO)
+Retruns the max value and deletes it from the tree or returns None if no values are present.
+INFO = information list
def AddValue(INFO, Value)
+Adds a value to the tree and re-organizes accordingly...
+INFO = information list
+Value = The value to be added...
Example1:
A = createBTO() # A is the information list
#add a value
AddValue(A, 100)
#extract a value...
value = ExtractMaxValue(A)
#add a value
AddValue(A, 400)
AddValue(A, 100.56)
#get max value...
value = getMaxValue(A)
#see if it is a full tree...
full = isFullTree(A)
#perform a breadth first search...
a, b, c = BreadthFirstOne(A, 3000) # will return -1, -1, -1 since 3000 was not added...
Example2:
Say we have the structure from example 1. We have two values: 400 and 100.56...
If we wish to quit our work right now and return tomorrow, all we have to do is
simply quit; when we wish to continue again, the reCalibrateInfo() function can
be used to restore the original information list...
1. We have just quit...
2. In our current directory, we will see another directory of the form
Max_Heap_Tree_Files(NUMBER).BinaryT...
3. Traverse to the Max Heap directory of the form above...
4. Perform the following line:
A = reCalibrateInfo() # A is the information list...
5. Should there be any deleted files from the directory, an error code will be returned...
