These functions are mostly for convenience, but
heappushpop!
(push, then pop) andheapreplace!
(pop, then push) are a smidgen faster then their equivalents, because the array gets "percolated" only once (and the percolate functions are not exported).heapreplace!
is nice for example if you want to keep a running list of the N "best" elements seen so far.Plus, systematic tests for
heapify!, heappeek, heappop!, heappush!, heappushpop!, heapreplace!
, for small heaps, doubling the runtime of the "priorityqueue.jl" test from 1 to 2 seconds on my MacBook Air.
