Summary of Running Times
| Common Operations | Effect | Unsorted Linked List | Self-balancing binary search tree | Binary heap | Binomial heap | Fibonacci heap | Brodal queue | Pairing heap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| insert(data,key) | Adds data to the queue, tagged with key | O(1) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) |
| findMin -> key,data | Returns key,data corresponding to min-value key | O(n) | O(log n) or O(1) (**) | O(1) | O(log n) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) |
| deleteMin | Deletes data corresponding to min-value key | O(n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n)* | O(log n) | O(log n)* |
| delete(node) | Deletes data corresponding to given key, given a pointer to the node being deleted | O(1) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n)* | O(log n) | O(log n)* |
| decreaseKey(node) | Decreases the key of a node, given a pointer to the node being modified | O(1) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(1)* | O(1) | Unknown but bounded: * |
| merge(heap1,heap2) -> heap3 | Merges two heaps into a third | O(1) | O(m log(n+m)) | O(m + n) | O(log n)*** | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) |
(*)Amortized time
(**)With trivial modification to store an additional pointer to the minimum element
(***)Where n is the size of the larger heap

Famous quotes containing the words summary, running and/or times:
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“The pleasure of jogging and running is rather like that of wearing a fur coat in Texas in August: the true joy comes in being able to take the damn thing off.”
—Joseph Epstein (b. 1937)
“In times past there were rituals of passage that conducted a boy into manhood, where other men passed along the wisdom and responsibilities that needed to be shared. But today we have no rituals. We are not conducted into manhood; we simply find ourselves there.”
—Kent Nerburn (20th century)
