Hello Cafe,
I am looking for a data structure that would have the following
informal properties:
- allow efficient retrieval of minimum element for some ordering
relation on a computed property of the elements
- allow efficient update of any element wrt to this property
I have first tried to use a PQueue from fingertree package but it does
not allow deletion/update of arbitrary elements. I then started to try
combining this with a map but ran into the same issue. I skimmed
through Okasaki's book (oldies but goldies...) and the basic finger
tree structure but these does not seem to fit my needs.
Thanks for your help
Regards,
Arnaud Bailly
