A fast CFFI-based SkipDict implementation.
Project description
A fast, CFFI-based SkipDict implementation for Python.
SkipDict instances are Skip List-based associative arrays (‘dictionaries’ in Python terms), mapping 64-bit signed integers to arbitrary Python objects. Keys are always stored and returned in order, while maintaining average-case O(log n) search, insert and delete times, and average-case space consumption of O(n).
This libary uses Peter Cannici’s public-domain skiplist.h C library, adapting it slightly for use with Python and CFFI.
Installation
Installation on most systems should be pretty easy:
$ pip install cskipdict
Usage
You can use it just like a normal dict, except that all keys should be integers between -2:sup:63 and +263 - 1 inclusive.
>>> from cskipdict import SkipDict >>> d = SkipDict() >>> d SkipDict({}) >>> len(d) 0 >>> d[123] = 'abc' >>> d SkipDict({123: 'abc'}) >>> d[420] = 'def' >>> d SkipDict({123: 'abc', 420: 'def'}) >>> d[69] = 'foo' >>> d SkipDict({69: 'foo', 123: 'abc', 420: 'def'})
Iteration will always happen in ascending order of the keys:
>>> for k, v in d.iteritems(): ... print((k, v)) (69, 'foo') (123, 'abc') (420, 'def')
