Interface BoundedMinHeap<T extends java.lang.Comparable<T>>


  • public interface BoundedMinHeap<T extends java.lang.Comparable<T>>
    Provides an interface for an bounded binary MinHeap

    BoundedMinHeap Invariant: A finite multiset of values of ordered type T is stored in a bounded binary MinHeap

    • Method Detail

      • insert

        void insert​(T v)
             throws HeapFullException
        Parameters:
        v - the value to be inserted into this binary MinHeap
        Throws:
        HeapFullException - if this bounded MinHeap is already full

        Precondition:
        1. The BoundedMinHeap Invariant is satisfied.
        2. A value v with type T has been given as input.
        Postcondition:
        1. The BoundedMinHeap Invariant is satisfied.
        2. If this BoundedMinHeap is not already full then a copy of the value v has been inserted into the multiset represented by this binary MinHeap, and no other changes have been made. A HeapFullException is thrown, and this bounded MinHeap is not changed, otherwise.
      • deleteMin

        T deleteMin()
             throws java.util.NoSuchElementException
        Returns:
        the value that was deleted from this BoundedMinHeap
        Throws:
        java.util.NoSuchElementException - if this BoundedMinHeap was already empty

        Precondition:
        1. The MinHeap Invariant is satisfied.
        Postcondition:
        1. The BoundedMinHeap Invariant is satisfied.
        2. If this MinHeap was not empty then a copy of the smallest element is removed from the multiset represented by this MinHeap and returned as output, and no other changes to this multiset have been made. A NoSuChElementException is thrown if this heap was already empty, an it is not changed.
      • getSize

        int getSize()
        Returns:
        the current size of this MinHeap

        Precondition:
        1. The BoundedMinHeap Invariant is satisfied.
        Postcondition:
        1. This Bounded MinHeap has not changed, so the BoundedMinHeap Invariant is still satisfied.
        2. The size of this BoundedMinHeap has been returned as output.
      • getCapacity

        int getCapacity()
        Returns:
        the capacity of this BoundedMaxHeap
        Precondition:
        1. The BoundedMinHeap Invariant is satisfied.
        Postcondition:
        1. This BoundedMinHeap has not changed, so the BoundedMinHeap Invariant is still satisfied.
        2. The capacity of this BoundedMinHeap has been returned as output.
