Defined in header <algorithm>

template< class RandomAccessIterator >
void make_heap( RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator last );
(1)
template< class RandomAccessIterator, class Compare >

void make_heap( RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator last,

                Compare comp );
(2)

Constructs a heap in the range [first, last). The first version of the function uses ​operator< to compare the elements, the second uses the given comparison function comp.

Contents

Parameters

first, last - the range of elements to make the heap from
comp - comparison function which returns ​true if the first argument is less than the second.

The signature of the comparison function should be equivalent to the following:

bool cmp(const Type1 &a, const Type2 &b);

The signature does not need to have const &, but the function must not modify the objects passed to it.
The types ​Type1​ and ​Type2​ must be such that an object of type ​RandomAccessIterator​ can be dereferenced and then implicitly converted to both of them.

Return value

(none)

Complexity

At most 3*std::distance(first, last) comparisons.

Example

Notes

A heap is a range of elements [f,l) that has the following properties:

  • *f​ is the largest element in the range
  • a new element can be added using push_heap()
  • the first element can be removed using pop_heap()

The actual arrangement of the elements is implementation defined.
