Hey thanks for reminding. I just now removed the template. :)

Hello!

As a part of the India Education Program, I will be working on this page along with Vibhav Bhave.

Any suggestions regarding the improvement of this page will always be welcomed. PratikLahoti 09:17, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Table for operations

Should I make a table for the operations section? I think it will give a better look to the page. Pratik Lahoti (talk) 13:16, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Using two lines for such short descriptions seems overkill, but perhaps so is using a table? I never really got why browsers don't render HTML definition lists as LaTeX does. The "Complexity" section could use a table listing the asymptotic complexity of each operation for each of the different implementations, I think. —Ruud 17:34, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Other applications

Is it just me, or does the application described in the "Other applications" section not require a DEPQ, but rather two (single-ended) priority queues? --Sneftel (talk) 11:28, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Pairing heaps?

Was someone thinking of interval heaps, which are also called "pair heaps", when they wrote "pairing heap"? I can't find any way to make pairing heaps support both remove-min and remove-max, and it doesn't seem like it's possible. —Coder Dan (talk) 08:55, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It describes the method more in the "Implementation section". In short, there's two heaps, a remove-min entails a delete from the max-heap, and a remove-max entails a delete from the min-heap. Any heap structure with an efficient delete (or decrease-key) will work. Sneftel (talk) 21:50, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
