Python包含了用于min-堆的heapq模块,但我需要一个max堆。在Python中我应该使用什么来实现最大堆?


当前回答

我创建了一个名为heap_class的包,它实现了最大堆,还将各种堆函数包装到一个与列表兼容的环境中。

>>> from heap_class import Heap
>>> h = Heap([3, 1, 9, 20], max=True)
>>> h.pop()
20
>>> h.peek()  # same as h[0]
9
>>> h.push(17)  # or h.append(17)
>>> h[0]  # same as h.peek()
17
>>> h[1]  # inefficient, but works
9

从最大堆中获得最小堆。

>>> y = reversed(h)
>>> y.peek()
1
>>> y  # repr is inefficient, but correct
Heap([1, 3, 9, 17], max=False)
>>> 9 in y
True
>>> y.raw()  # underlying heap structure
[1, 3, 17, 9]

正如其他人所提到的,在max堆中处理字符串和复杂对象在heapq中是相当困难的,因为它们不同 否定的形式。heap_class实现简单:

>>> h = Heap(('aa', 4), ('aa', 5), ('zz', 2), ('zz', 1), max=True)
>>> h.pop()
('zz', 2)

支持自定义键,并与后续的推/追加和弹出一起工作:

>>> vals = [('Adam', 'Smith'), ('Zeta', 'Jones')]
>>> h = Heap(vals, key=lambda name: name[1])
>>> h.peek()  # Jones comes before Smith
('Zeta', 'Jones')
>>> h.push(('Aaron', 'Allen'))
>>> h.peek()
('Aaron', 'Allen')

(实现是建立在heapq函数上的,所以它都是用C语言或C语言包装的,除了Python中max heap上的heappush和heapreplace)

其他回答

最简单的方法 就是把每个元素都转换成负数,问题就解决了。

import heapq
heap = []
heapq.heappush(heap, 1*(-1))
heapq.heappush(heap, 10*(-1))
heapq.heappush(heap, 20*(-1))
print(heap)

输出如下所示:

[-20, -1, -10]

最简单最理想的解决方案

将这些值乘以-1

好了。所有最高的数字现在都是最低的,反之亦然。

只要记住,当您弹出一个元素与-1相乘以再次获得原始值时。

最好的方法:

from heapq import *
h = [5, 7, 9, 1, 3]
h_neg = [-i for i in h]
heapify(h_neg)            # heapify
heappush(h_neg, -2)       # push
print(-heappop(h_neg))    # pop
# 9

解决方案是当你在堆中存储你的值时对其求反,或者像这样反转你的对象比较:

import heapq

class MaxHeapObj(object):
  def __init__(self, val): self.val = val
  def __lt__(self, other): return self.val > other.val
  def __eq__(self, other): return self.val == other.val
  def __str__(self): return str(self.val)

max-heap的例子:

maxh = []
heapq.heappush(maxh, MaxHeapObj(x))
x = maxh[0].val  # fetch max value
x = heapq.heappop(maxh).val  # pop max value

但是您必须记住包装和打开您的值,这需要知道您正在处理的是最小堆还是最大堆。

MinHeap, MaxHeap类

为MinHeap和MaxHeap对象添加类可以简化代码:

class MinHeap(object):
  def __init__(self): self.h = []
  def heappush(self, x): heapq.heappush(self.h, x)
  def heappop(self): return heapq.heappop(self.h)
  def __getitem__(self, i): return self.h[i]
  def __len__(self): return len(self.h)

class MaxHeap(MinHeap):
  def heappush(self, x): heapq.heappush(self.h, MaxHeapObj(x))
  def heappop(self): return heapq.heappop(self.h).val
  def __getitem__(self, i): return self.h[i].val

使用示例:

minh = MinHeap()
maxh = MaxHeap()
# add some values
minh.heappush(12)
maxh.heappush(12)
minh.heappush(4)
maxh.heappush(4)
# fetch "top" values
print(minh[0], maxh[0])  # "4 12"
# fetch and remove "top" values
print(minh.heappop(), maxh.heappop())  # "4 12"

这是一个基于heapq的简单MaxHeap实现。虽然它只适用于数值。

import heapq
from typing import List


class MaxHeap:
    def __init__(self):
        self.data = []

    def top(self):
        return -self.data[0]

    def push(self, val):
        heapq.heappush(self.data, -val)

    def pop(self):
        return -heapq.heappop(self.data)

用法:

max_heap = MaxHeap()
max_heap.push(3)
max_heap.push(5)
max_heap.push(1)
print(max_heap.top())  # 5
