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)
“Do but consider this small dust, here running in the glass,
By atoms moved.
Could you believe that this the body was
Of one that loved?
And in his mistress’ flame playing like a fly,
Turned to cinders by her eye?
Yes, and in death as life unblest,
To have’t expressed,
Even ashes of lovers find no rest.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
“I have drunk ale from the Country of the Young
And weep because I know all things now:
I have been a hazel-tree, and they hung
The Pilot Star and the Crooked Plough
Among my leaves in times out of mind....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
