priority queue cpp code example

Example 1: priority queue in java

import java.util.PriorityQueue;
import java.util.Iterator;

class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        // Creating a priority queue
        PriorityQueue<Integer> numbers = new PriorityQueue<>();
        numbers.add(4);
        numbers.add(2);
        numbers.add(1);
        System.out.print("PriorityQueue using iterator(): ");

        //Using the iterator() method
        Iterator<Integer> iterate = numbers.iterator();
        while(iterate.hasNext()) {
            System.out.print(iterate.next());
            System.out.print(", ");
        }
    }
}

Example 2: priority queue c++

/* A priority queue maintains a set of elements. The supported operations are
insertion and, depending on the type of the queue, retrieval and removal 
of either the minimum or maximum element. Insertion and removal take 
O(logn) time, and retrieval takes O(1) time. */
priority_queue<int> q;
q.push(3); // 3
q.push(5); // 3 5
q.push(7); // 3 5 7
q.push(2); // 2 3 5 7
cout << q.top() << "\n"; // 7
q.pop();
cout << q.top() << "\n"; // 5
q.pop();
q.push(6);
cout << q.top() << "\n"; // 6
q.pop();

Example 3: implemetation of priority queue in c++

// Implementation of priority_queue in c++

//queue with elements in decreasing order
priority_queue<int> pq;

// queue with elements in increasing order  using compare function inside declaration
priority_queue <int, vector<int>, greater<int> > pq;

//priority_queue of type pair<int, int>
#define pp pair<int, int>
priority_queue <pp, vector<pp>, greater<pp> > pq;

Example 4: priority queue cpp

// using GCC 10.2 (C++2a) compiler
#include <functional>
#include <queue>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
 
template<typename T> void print_queue(T& q) {
    while(!q.empty()) {
        std::cout << q.top() << " ";
        q.pop();
    }
    std::cout << '\n';
}
 
int main() {
    std::priority_queue<int> q;
 
    for(int n : {1,8,5,6,3,4,0,9,7,2})
        q.push(n);
 
    print_queue(q);
 
    std::priority_queue<int, std::vector<int>, std::greater<int> > q2;
 
    for(int n : {1,8,5,6,3,4,0,9,7,2})
        q2.push(n);
 
    print_queue(q2);
 
    // Using lambda to compare elements.
    auto cmp = [](int left, int right) { return (left ^ 1) < (right ^ 1); };
    std::priority_queue<int, std::vector<int>, decltype(cmp)> q3(cmp);
 
    for(int n : {1,8,5,6,3,4,0,9,7,2})
        q3.push(n);
 
    print_queue(q3);
 
}
