  2. Skip list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skip_list

    A schematic picture of the skip list data structure. Each box with an arrow represents a pointer and a row is a linked list giving a sparse subsequence; the numbered boxes (in yellow) at the bottom represent the ordered data sequence.

  3. Heap (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap_(data_structure)

    Example of a binary max-heap with node keys being integers between 1 and 100. In computer science, a heap is a tree-based data structure that satisfies the heap property: In a max heap, for any given node C, if P is the parent node of C, then the key (the value) of P is greater than or equal to the key of C.

  4. Cartesian tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_tree

    Cartesian trees were introduced and named by Vuillemin (1980), who used them as an example of the interaction between geometric combinatorics and the design and analysis of data structures. In particular, Vuillemin used these structures to analyze the average-case complexity of concatenation and splitting operations on binary search trees.

  5. Tree traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_traversal

    Depending on the problem at hand, pre-order, post-order, and especially one of the number of subtrees − 1 in-order operations may be optional. Also, in practice more than one of pre-order, post-order, and in-order operations may be required. For example, when inserting into a ternary tree, a pre-order operation is performed by comparing items.

  6. Binary heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_heap

    Example of a complete binary max-heap Example of a complete binary min heap. A binary heap is a heap data structure that takes the form of a binary tree. Binary heaps are a common way of implementing priority queues. [1]: 162–163 The binary heap was introduced by J. W. J. Williams in 1964 as a data structure for implementing heapsort. [2]

  7. Treap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treap

    A treap with alphabetic key and numeric max heap order. The treap was first described by Raimund Seidel and Cecilia R. Aragon in 1989; [1] [2] its name is a portmanteau of tree and heap. It is a Cartesian tree in which each key is given a (randomly chosen) numeric priority.

  8. Trie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trie

    In computer science, a trie (/ ˈ t r aɪ /, / ˈ t r iː /), also known as a digital tree or prefix tree, [1] is a specialized search tree data structure used to store and retrieve strings from a dictionary or set. Unlike a binary search tree, nodes in a trie do not store their associated key.

  9. k-way merge algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-way_merge_algorithm

    An example of such is the classic merge that appears frequently in merge sort examples. The classic merge outputs the data item with the lowest key at each step; given some sorted lists, it produces a sorted list containing all the elements in any of the input lists, and it does so in time proportional to the sum of the lengths of the input lists.
