--- Heapsort generic package using formal procedures
-
--- This package provides a generic heapsort routine that can be used with
--- different types of data. See also GNAT.Heap_Sort_A, a version that works
--- with subprogram parameters, allowing code sharing. The generic version
--- is slightly more efficient but does not allow code sharing. The generic
--- version is also Pure, while the access version can only be Preelaborate.
-
-generic
- -- The data to be sorted is assumed to be indexed by integer values from
- -- 1 to N, where N is the number of items to be sorted. In addition, the
- -- index value zero is used for a temporary location used during the sort.
-
- with procedure Move (From : Natural; To : Natural);
- -- A procedure that moves the data item with index From to the data item
- -- with Index To. An index value of zero is used for moves from and to a
- -- single temporary location used by the sort.
-
- with function Lt (Op1, Op2 : Natural) return Boolean;
- -- A function that compares two items and returns True if the item with
- -- index Op1 is less than the item with Index Op2, and False if the Op1
- -- item is greater than or equal to the Op2 item.
-
-package GNAT.Heap_Sort_G is
-pragma Pure (Heap_Sort_G);
-
- procedure Sort (N : Natural);
- -- This procedures sorts items in the range from 1 to N into ascending
- -- order making calls to Lt to do required comparisons, and Move to move
- -- items around. Note that, as described above, both Move and Lt use a
- -- single temporary location with index value zero. This sort is not
- -- stable, i.e. the order of equal elements in the input is not preserved.
