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 keeps associates each node with a priority, making sure that a
|
|
parent's priority is always higher than any of its children.
