Class FloatArrayIndirectPriorityQueue

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    FloatIndirectPriorityQueue, IndirectPriorityQueue<java.lang.Float>

    public class FloatArrayIndirectPriorityQueue
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements FloatIndirectPriorityQueue
    A type-specific array-based semi-indirect priority queue.

    Instances of this class use as reference list a reference array, which must be provided to each constructor, and represent a priority queue using a backing array of integer indices—all operations are performed directly on the array. The array is enlarged as needed, but it is never shrunk. Use the trim() method to reduce its size, if necessary.

    This implementation is extremely inefficient, but it is difficult to beat when the size of the queue is very small. Moreover, it allows to enqueue several time the same index, without limitations.

      • enqueue

        public void enqueue​(int x)
        Enqueues a new element.

        Note that for efficiency reasons this method will not throw an exception when x is already in the queue. However, the queue state will become inconsistent and the following behaviour will not be predictable.

        Specified by:
        enqueue in interface IndirectPriorityQueue<java.lang.Float>
        Parameters:
        x - the element to enqueue.
      • last

        public int last()
        Description copied from interface: IndirectPriorityQueue
        Returns the last element of this queue, that is, the element the would be dequeued last (optional operation).

        This default implementation just throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

        Specified by:
        last in interface IndirectPriorityQueue<java.lang.Float>
        Returns:
        the last element.
      • changed

        public void changed​(int index)
        Notifies this queue that the specified element has changed (optional operation).

        Note that the specified element must belong to this queue.

        This default implementation just throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

        Note that for efficiency reasons this method will not throw an exception when index is not in the queue.

        Specified by:
        changed in interface IndirectPriorityQueue<java.lang.Float>
        Parameters:
        index - the element that has changed.
      • allChanged

        public void allChanged()
        Signals the queue that all elements have changed.

        public boolean remove​(int index)
        Description copied from interface: IndirectPriorityQueue
        Removes the specified element from this queue (optional operation).

        This default implementation just throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

        Specified by:
        remove in interface IndirectPriorityQueue<java.lang.Float>
        Parameters:
        index - the element to be removed.

        Parameters:
        a - an array whose initial part will be filled with the frnot (must be sized as least as the heap size).
