+<!--more-->
+
+## What does it do?
+
+A _Gap Buffer_ is simply a list of characters, similar to a normal string, with
+the added twist of splitting it into two side: the prefix and suffix, on either
+side of the cursor. In between them, a gap is left to allow for quick
+insertion at the cursor.
+
+Moving the cursor moves the gap around the buffer, the prefix and suffix getting
+shorter/longer as required.
+
+## Implementation
+
+I'll be writing a sample implementation in Python, as with the rest of the
+[series]({{< ref "/series/cool-algorithms/" >}}). I don't think it showcases the
+elegance of the _Gap Buffer_ in action like a C implementation full of
+`memmove`s would, but it does makes it short and sweet.
+
+### Representation
+
+We'll be representing the gap buffer as an actual list of characters.
+
+Given that Python doesn't _have_ characters, let's settle for a list of strings,
+each representing a single character...
+
+```python
+Char = str
+
+class GapBuffer:
+    # List of characters, contains prefix and suffix of string with gap in the middle
+    _buf: list[Char]
+    # The gap is contained between [start, end) (i.e: buf[start:end])
+    _gap_start: int
+    _gap_end: int
+
+    # Visual representation of the gap buffer:
+    # This is a very  [                     ]long string.
+    # |<----------------------------------------------->| capacity
+    # |<------------>|                       |<-------->| string
+    #                 |<------------------->|             gap
+    # |<------------>|                                    prefix
+    #                                        |<-------->| suffix
+    def __init__(self, initial_capacity: int = 16) -> None:
+        assert initial_capacity > 0
+        # Initialize an empty gap buffer
+        self._buf = [""] * initial_capacity
+        self._gap_start = 0
+        self._gap_end = initial_capacity
+```
+
+### Accessors
+
+I'm mostly adding these for exposition, and making it easier to write `assert`s
+later.
+
+```python
+@property
+def capacity(self) -> int:
+  return len(self._buf)
+
+@property
+def gap_length(self) -> int:
+  return self._gap_end - self._gap_start
+
+@property
+def string_length(self) -> int:
+  return self.capacity - self.gap_length
+
+@property
+def prefix_length(self) -> int:
+  return self._gap_start
+
+@property
+def suffix_length(self) -> int:
+  return self.capacity - self._gap_end
+```
+
+### Growing the buffer
+
+I've written this method in a somewhat non-idiomatic manner, to make it closer
+to how it would look in C using `realloc` instead.
+
+It would be more efficient to use slicing to insert the needed extra capacity
+directly, instead of making a new buffer and copying characters over.
+
+```python
+def grow(self, capacity: int) -> None:
+    assert capacity >= self.capacity
+    # Create a new buffer with the new capacity
+    new_buf = [""] * capacity
+    # Move the prefix/suffix to their place in the new buffer
+    added_capacity = capacity - len(self._buf)
+    new_buf[: self._gap_start] = self._buf[: self._gap_start]
+    new_buf[self._gap_end + added_capacity :] = self._buf[self._gap_end :]
+    # Use the new buffer, account for added capacity
+    self._buf = new_buf
+    self._gap_end += added_capacity
+```
+
+### Insertion
+
+Inserting text at the cursor's position means filling up the gap in the middle
+of the buffer. To do so we must first make sure that the gap is big enough, or
+grow the buffer accordingly.
+
+Then inserting the text is simply a matter of copying its characters in place,
+and moving the start of the gap further right.
+
+```python
+def insert(self, val: str) -> None:
+    # Ensure we have enouh space to insert the whole string
+    if len(val) > self.gap_length:
+        self.grow(max(self.capacity * 2, self.string_length + len(val)))
+    # Fill the gap with the given string
+    self._buf[self._gap_start : self._gap_start + len(val)] = val
+    self._gap_start += len(val)
+```
+
+### Deletion
+
+Removing text from the buffer simply expands the gap in the corresponding
+direction, shortening the string's prefix/suffix. This makes it very cheap.
+
+The methods are named after the `backspace` and `delete` keys on the keyboard.
+
+```python
+def backspace(self, dist: int = 1) -> None:
+    assert dist <= self.prefix_length
+    # Extend gap to the left
+    self._gap_start -= dist
+
+def delete(self, dist: int = 1) -> None:
+    assert dist <= self.suffix_length
+    # Extend gap to the right
+    self._gap_end += dist
+```
+
+### Moving the cursor
+
+Moving the cursor along the buffer will shift letters from one side of the gap
+to the other, moving them accross from prefix to suffix and back.
+
+I find Python's list slicing not quite as elegant to read as a `memmove`, though
+it does make for a very small and efficient implementation.
+
+```python
+def left(self, dist: int = 1) -> None:
+    assert dist <= self.prefix_length
+    # Shift the needed number of characters from end of prefix to start of suffix
+    self._buf[self._gap_end - dist : self._gap_end] = self._buf[
+        self._gap_start - dist : self._gap_start
+    ]
+    # Adjust indices accordingly
+    self._gap_start -= dist
+    self._gap_end -= dist
+
+def right(self, dist: int = 1) -> None:
+    assert dist <= self.suffix_length
+    # Shift the needed number of characters from start of suffix to end of prefix
+    self._buf[self._gap_start : self._gap_start + dist] = self._buf[
+        self._gap_end : self._gap_end + dist
+    ]
+    # Adjust indices accordingly
+    self._gap_start += dist
+    self._gap_end += dist
+```

+
+The [_Bloom Filter_][wiki] is a probabilistic data structure for set membership.
+
+The filter can be used as an inexpensive first step when querying the actual
+data is quite costly (e.g: as a first check for expensive cache lookups or large
+data seeks).
+
+[wiki]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_filter
+
+<!--more-->
+
+## What does it do?
+
+A _Bloom Filter_ can be understood as a hash-set which can either tell you:
+
+* An element is _not_ part of the set.
+* An element _may be_ part of the set.
+
+More specifically, one can tweak the parameters of the filter to make it so that
+the _false positive_ rate of membership is quite low.
+
+I won't be going into those calculations here, but they are quite trivial to
+compute, or one can just look up appropriate values for their use case.
+
+## Implementation
+
+I'll be using Python, which has the nifty ability of representing bitsets
+through its built-in big integers quite easily.
+
+We'll be assuming a `BIT_COUNT` of 64 here, but the implementation can easily be
+tweaked to use a different number, or even change it at construction time.
+
+### Representation
+
+A `BloomFilter` is just a set of bits and a list of hash functions.
+
+```python
+BIT_COUNT = 64
+
+class BloomFilter[T]:
+    _bits: int
+    _hash_functions: list[Callable[[T], int]]
+
+    def __init__(self, hash_functions: list[Callable[[T], int]]) -> None:
+        # Filter is initially empty
+        self._bits = 0
+        self._hash_functions = hash_functions
+```
+
+### Inserting a key
+
+To add an element to the filter, we take the output from each hash function and
+use that to set a bit in the filter. This combination of bit will identify the
+element, which we can use for lookup later.
+
+```python
+def insert(self, val: T) -> None:
+    # Iterate over each hash
+    for f in self._hash_functions:
+        n = f(val) % BIT_COUNT
+        # Set the corresponding bit
+        self._bit |= 1 << n
+```
+
+### Querying a key
+
+Because the _Bloom Filter_ does not actually store its elements, but some
+derived data from hashing them, it can only definitely say if an element _does
+not_ belong to it. Otherwise, it _may_ be part of the set, and should be checked
+against the actual underlying store.
+
+```python
+def may_contain(self, val: T) -> bool:
+    for f in self._hash_functions:
+        n = f(val) % BIT_COUNT
+        # If one of the bits is unset, the value is definitely not present
+        if not (self._bit & (1 << n)):
+            return False
+    # All bits were matched, `val` is likely to be part of the set
+    return True
+```

+
+The [_Treap_][wiki] is a mix between a _Binary Search Tree_ and a _Heap_.
+
+Like a _Binary Search Tree_, it keeps an ordered set of keys in the shape of a
+tree, allowing for binary search traversal.
+
+Like a _Heap_, it associates each node with a priority, making sure that a
+parent's priority is always higher than any of its children.
+
+[wiki]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treap
+
+<!--more-->
+
+## What does it do?
+
+By randomizing the priority value of each key at insertion time, we ensure a
+high likelihood that the tree stays _roughly_ balanced, avoiding degenerating to
+unbalanced O(N) height.
+
+Here's a sample tree created by inserting integers from 0 to 250 into the tree:
+
+{{< graphviz file="treap.gv" />}}
+
+## Implementation
+
+I'll be keeping the theme for this [series] by using Python to implement the
+_Treap_. This leads to somewhat annoying code to handle the rotation process,
+which is easier to do in C using pointers.
+
+[series]: {{< ref "/series/cool-algorithms/" >}}
+
+### Representation
+
+Creating a new `Treap` is easy: the tree starts off empty, waiting for new nodes
+to insert.
+
+Each `Node` must keep track of the `key`, the mapped `value`, and the node's
+`priority` (which is assigned randomly). Finally it must also allow for storing
+two children (`left` and `right`).
+
+```python
+class Node[K, V]:
+    key: K
+    value: V
+    priority: float
+    left: Node[K, V] | None
+    righg: Node[K, V] | None
+
+    def __init__(self, key: K, value: V):
+        # Store key and value, like a normal BST node
+        self.key = key
+        self.value = value
+        # Priority is derived randomly
+        self.priority = random()
+        self.left = None
+        self.right = None
+
+class Treap[K, V]:
+    _root: Node[K, V] | None
+
+    def __init__(self):
+        # The tree starts out empty
+        self._root = None
+```
+
+### Search
+
+Searching the tree is the same as in any other _Binary Search Tree_.
+
+```python
+def get(self, key: K) -> T | None:
+    node = self._root
+    # The usual BST traversal
+    while node is not None:
+        if node.key == key:
+            return node.value
+        elif node.key < key:
+            node = node.right
+        else:
+            node = node.left
+    return None
+```
+
+### Insertion
+
+To insert a new `key` into the tree, we identify which leaf position it should
+be inserted at. We then generate the node's priority, insert it at this
+position, and rotate the node upwards until the heap property is respected.
+
+```python
+type ChildField = Literal["left, right"]
+
+def insert(self, key: K, value: V) -> bool:
+    # Empty treap base-case
+    if self._root is None:
+        self._root = Node(key, value)
+        # Signal that we're not overwriting the value
+        return False
+    # Keep track of the parent chain for rotation after insertion
+    parents = []
+    node = self._root
+    while node is not None:
+        # Insert a pre-existing key
+        if node.key == key:
+            node.value = value
+            return True
+        #  Go down the tree, keep track of the path through the tree
+        field = "left" if key < node.key else "right"
+        parents.append((node, field))
+        node = getattr(node, field)
+    #  Key wasn't found, we're inserting a new node
+    child = Node(key, value)
+    parent, field = parents[-1]
+    setattr(parent, field, child)
+    # Rotate the new node up until we respect the decreasing priority property
+    self._rotate_up(child, parents)
+    # Key wasn't found, signal that we inserted a new node
+    return False
+
+def _rotate_up(
+    self,
+    node: Node[K, V],
+    parents: list[tuple[Node[K, V], ChildField]],
+) -> None:
+    while parents:
+        parent, field = parents.pop()
+        # If the parent has higher priority, we're done rotating
+        if parent.priority >= node.priority:
+            break
+        # Check for grand-parent/root of tree edge-case
+        if parents:
+            # Update grand-parent to point to the new rotated node
+            grand_parent, field = parents[-1]
+            setattr(grand_parent, field, node)
+        else:

+        # Rotate the node up
+        setattr(parent, field, getattr(node, other_field))

+My [last post]({{< relref "../2024-07-20-treap/index.md" >}}) about the _Treap_
+showed an implementation using tree rotations, as is commonly done with [AVL
+Trees][avl] and [Red Black Trees][rb].
+
+But the _Treap_ lends itself well to a simple and elegant implementation with no
+tree rotations. This makes it especially easy to implement the removal of a key,
+rather than the fiddly process of deletion using tree rotations.
+
+[avl]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVL_tree
+[rb]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red%E2%80%93black_tree
+
+<!--more-->
+
+## Implementation
+
+All operations on the tree will be implemented in terms of two fundamental
+operations: `split` and `merge`.
+
+We'll be reusing the same structures as in the last post, so let's skip straight
+to implementing those fundaments, and building on them for `insert` and
+`delete`.
+
+### Split
+
+Splitting a tree means taking a key, and getting the following output:
+
+* a `left` node, root of the tree of all keys lower than the input.
+* an extracted `node` which corresponds to the input `key`.
+* a `right` node, root of the tree of all keys higher than the input.
+
+```python
+type OptionalNode[K, V] = Node[K, V] | None
+
+class SplitResult(NamedTuple):
+    left: OptionalNode
+    node: OptionalNode
+    right: OptionalNode
+
+def split(root: OptionalNode[K, V], key: K) -> SplitResult:
+    # Base case, empty tree
+    if root is None:
+        return SplitResult(None, None, None)
+    # If we found the key, simply extract left and right
+    if root.key == key:
+        left, right = root.left, root.right
+        root.left, root.right = None, None
+        return SplitResult(left, root, right)
+    # Otherwise, recurse on the corresponding side of the tree
+    if root.key < key:
+        left, node, right = split(root.right, key)
+        root.right = left
+        return SplitResult(root, node, right)
+    if key < root.key:
+        left, node, right = split(root.left, key)
+        root.left = right
+        return SplitResult(left, node, root)
+    raise RuntimeError("Unreachable")
+```
+
+### Merge
+
+Merging a `left` and `right` tree means (cheaply) building a new tree containing
+both of them. A pre-condition for merging is that the `left` tree is composed
+entirely of nodes that are lower than any key in `right` (i.e: as in `left` and
+`right` after a `split`).
+
+```python
+def merge(
+    left: OptionalNode[K, V],
+    right: OptionalNode[K, V],
+) -> OptionalNode[K, V]:
+    # Base cases, left or right being empty
+    if left is None:
+        return right
+    if right is None:
+        return left
+    # Left has higher priority, it must become the root node
+    if left.priority >= right.priority:
+        # We recursively reconstruct its right sub-tree
+        left.right = merge(left.right, right)
+        return left
+    # Right has higher priority, it must become the root node
+    if left.priority < right.priority:
+        # We recursively reconstruct its left sub-tree
+        right.left = merge(left, right.left)
+        return right
+    raise RuntimeError("Unreachable")
+```
+
+### Insertion
+
+Inserting a node into the tree is done in two steps:
+
+1. `split` the tree to isolate the middle insertion point
+2. `merge` it back up to form a full tree with the inserted key
+
+```python
+def insert(self, key: K, value: V) -> bool:
+    # `left` and `right` come before/after the key
+    left, node, right = split(self._root, key)
+    was_updated: bool
+    # Create the node, or update its value, if the key was already in the tree
+    if node is None:
+        node = Node(key, value)
+        was_updated = False
+    else:
+        node.value = value
+        was_updated = True
+    # Rebuild the tree with a couple of merge operations
+    self._root = merge(left, merge(node, right))
+    # Signal whether the key was already in the key
+    return was_updated
+```
+
+### Removal
+
+Removing a key from the tree is similar to inserting a new key, and forgetting
+to insert it back: simply `split` the tree and `merge` it back without the
+extracted middle node.
+
+```python
+def remove(self, key: K) -> bool:
+    # `node` contains the key, or `None` if the key wasn't in the tree
+    left, node, right = split(self._root, key)
+    # Put the tree back together, without the extract node
+    self._root = merge(left, right)
+    # Signal whether `key` was mapped in the tree
+    return node is not None
+```

+[_Reservoir Sampling_][reservoir] is an [online][online], probabilistic
+algorithm to uniformly sample $k$ random elements out of a stream of values.
+
+It's a particularly elegant and small algorithm, only requiring $\Theta(k)$
+amount of space and a single pass through the stream.

+
+## Sampling one element
+
+As an introduction, we'll first focus on fairly sampling one element from the
+stream.
+
+```python
+def sample_one[T](stream: Iterable[T]) -> T:
+    stream_iter = iter(stream)
+    # Sample the first element
+    res = next(stream_iter)
+    for i, val in enumerate(stream_iter, start=1):
+        j = random.randint(0, i)
+        # Replace the sampled element with probability 1/(i + 1)
+        if j == 0:
+            res = val
+    # Return the randomly sampled element
+    return res
+```
+
+### Proof
+
+Let's now prove that this algorithm leads to a fair sampling of the stream.
+
+We'll be doing proof by induction.
+
+#### Hypothesis $H_N$
+
+After iterating through the first $N$ items in the stream,
+each of them has had an equal $\frac{1}{N}$ probability of being selected as
+`res`.
+
+#### Base Case $H_1$
+
+We can trivially observe that the first element is always assigned to `res`,
+$\frac{1}{1} = 1$, the hypothesis has been verified.
+
+#### Inductive Case
+
+For a given $N$, let us assume that $H_N$ holds. Let us now look at the events
+of loop iteration where `i = N` (i.e: observation of the $N + 1$-th item in the
+stream).
+
+`j = random.randint(0, i)` uniformly selects a value in the range $[0, i]$,
+a.k.a $[0, N]$. We then have two cases:
+
+* `j == 0`, with probability $\frac{1}{N + 1}$: we select `val` as the new
+reservoir element `res`.
+
+* `j != 0`, with probability $\frac{N}{N + 1}$: we keep the previous value of
+`res`. By $H_N$, any of the first $N$ elements had a $\frac{1}{N}$ probability
+of being `res` before at the start of the loop, each element now has a
+probability $\frac{1}{N} \cdot \frac{N}{N + 1} = \frac{1}{N + 1}$ of being the
+element.
+
+And thus, we have proven $H_{N + 1}$ at the end of the loop.
+
+## Sampling $k$ element
+
+The code for sampling $k$ elements is very similar to the one-element case.
+
+```python
+def sample[T](stream: Iterable[T], k: int = 1) -> list[T]:
+    stream_iter = iter(stream)
+    # Retain the first 'k' elements in the reservoir
+    res = list(itertools.islice(stream_iter, k))
+    for i, val in enumerate(stream_iter, start=k):
+        j = random.randint(0, i)
+        # Replace one element at random with probability k/(i + 1)
+        if j < k:
+            res[j] = val
+    # Return 'k' randomly sampled elements
+    return res
+```
+
+### Proof
+
+Let us once again do a proof by induction, assuming the stream contains at least
+$k$ items.
+
+#### Hypothesis $H_N$
+
+After iterating through the first $N$ items in the stream, each of them has had
+an equal $\frac{k}{N}$ probability of being sampled from the stream.
+
+#### Base Case $H_k$
+
+We can trivially observe that the first $k$ element are sampled at the start of
+the algorithm, $\frac{k}{k} = 1$, the hypothesis has been verified.
+
+#### Inductive Case
+
+For a given $N$, let us assume that $H_N$ holds. Let us now look at the events
+of the loop iteration where `i = N`, in order to prove $H_{N + 1}$.
+
+`j = random.randint(0, i)` uniformly selects a value in the range $[0, i]$,
+a.k.a $[0, N]$. We then have three cases:
+
+* `j >= k`, with probability $1 - \frac{k}{N + 1}$: we do not modify the
+sampled reservoir at all.
+
+* `j < k`, with probability $\frac{k}{N + 1}$: we sample the new element to
+replace the `j`-th element of the reservoir. Therefore for any element
+$e \in [0, k[$ we can either have:
+  * $j = e$: the element _is_ replaced, probability $\frac{1}{k}$.
+  * $j \neq e$: the element is _not_ replaced, probability $\frac{k - 1}{k}$.
+
+We can now compute the probability that a previously sampled element is kept in
+the reservoir:
+$1 - \frac{k}{N + 1} + \frac{k}{N + 1} \cdot \frac{k - 1}{k} = \frac{N}{N + 1}$.
+
+By $H_N$, any of the first $N$ elements had a $\frac{k}{N}$ probability
+of being sampled before at the start of the loop, each element now has a
+probability $\frac{k}{N} \cdot \frac{N}{N + 1} = \frac{k}{N + 1}$ of being the
+element.
+
+We have now proven that all elements have a probability $\frac{k}{N + 1}$ of
+being sampled at the end of the loop, therefore $H_{N + 1}$ has been verified.
