Implementation of the Red Black tree data structure in Rust. This implementation can be used as a set, or a priority queue and has methods to support both use cases There is also a supporting pair of macros that can be used to allow the tree to be used as a map (see make_map
and make_map_named
in src/map.rs
, also an example of use in examples/map.rs
in the source).
Currently all comparisons are done via the PartialOrd
trait, meaning types must implement this trait in order to be used with the RBTree. I have tentative plans to allow one to opt out of this requirement in favour of a user-provided comparison method.
Example: ``` use rb_tree::RBTree;
// uses an rbtree to sort data
fn sort
fn main() { let eg1 = vec!(3, 6, 1, 2, 0, 4, -1, 5, 10, 11, -13); assert_eq!(sort(eg1), vec!(-13, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11));
let eg2 = vec!("Is", "this", "the", "real", "life");
assert_eq!(sort(eg2), vec!("Is", "life", "real", "the", "this"))
} ```
