Penguin Queue
Ruby priority-queue library
10000.times { array << rand; array.delete(array.min) } #=> slow when array.size is large
10000.times { pq << rand; pq.deq } #=> fast even if pq.size is large
Install
gem install penguin_queue
# Gemfile
gem 'penguin_queue'
Usage
require 'penguin_queue'
pq = PenguinQueue.new
10.times.to_a.shuffle.each { |i| pq << i }
10.times.map { pq.deq } #=> [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
# custom priority
pq.enq 'hello', priority: 0
pq.first #=> "hello"
pq.first_with_priority #=> ["hello", 0]
pq.deq_with_priority #=> ["hello", 0]
# update priority, remove node
nodes = 10.times.to_a.shuffle.map { |i| pq << i }
nodes.each { |n| n.priority = -n.priority }
nodes.each_with_index{ |n| n.remove if n.value.odd? }
pq.size.times.map { pq.deq } #=> [8, 6, 4, 2, 0]
