Class ListHeap<E extends Comparable<E>>

java.lang.Object

opennlp.tools.util.ListHeap<E>

All Implemented Interfaces:

Heap<E>

public class ListHeap<E extends Comparable<E>>
extends Object
implements Heap<E>

This class implements the heap interface using a List as the underlying data structure. This heap allows values which are equals to be inserted. The heap will return the top K values which have been added where K is specified by the size passed to the constructor. K+1 values are not gaurenteed to be kept in the heap or returned in a particular order.
