NAME
Heap::Elem::NumRev - Reversed Numeric Heap Elements
SYNOPSIS
use Heap::Elem::NumRev( NumRElem ); use Heap::Fibonacci; my $heap = Heap::Fibonacci->new; my $elem; foreach $i ( 1..100 ) { $elem = NumRElem( $i ); $heap->add( $elem ); } while( defined( $elem = $heap->extract_top ) ) { print "Largest is ", $elem->val, "\n"; }
DESCRIPTION
Heap::Elem::NumRev is used to wrap numeric values into an element that can be managed on a heap. The top of the heap will have the largest element still remaining. (See Heap::Elem::Num if you want the heap to always return the smallest element.) The details of the Elem interface are described in Heap::Elem. The details of using a Heap interface are described in Heap.
