priority queue using python code example

Example 1: python priority queue

from queue import PriorityQueue

class PqElement(object):
    def __init__(self, value: int):
        self.val = value

    #Custom Compare Function (less than or equsal)
    def __lt__(self, other):
        """self < obj."""
        return self.val > other.val

    #Print each element function
    def __repr__(self):
        return f'PQE:{self.val}'

#Usage-
pq = PriorityQueue()
pq.put(PqElement(v))       #Add Item      - O(Log(n))
topValue = pq.get()        #Pop top item  - O(1)
topValue = pq.queue[0].val #Get top value - O(1)

Example 2: python priority queue

class PriorityQueueSet(object):

    """
    Combined priority queue and set data structure.

    Acts like a priority queue, except that its items are guaranteed to be
    unique. Provides O(1) membership test, O(log N) insertion and O(log N)
    removal of the smallest item.

    Important: the items of this data structure must be both comparable and
    hashable (i.e. must implement __cmp__ and __hash__). This is true of
    Python's built-in objects, but you should implement those methods if you
    want to use the data structure for custom objects.

        Arguments:
            items (list): An initial item list - it can be unsorted and
                non-unique. The data structure will be created in O(N).
