Detailed Description

template<template< typename > class NodeType, typename Key, class Compare>
class Aleph::GenBinTree< NodeType, Key, Compare >

Simple (unbalanced) binary search tree.

GenBinTree implements a basic binary search tree without any balancing operations. The tree's performance depends entirely on the insertion order of keys.

Performance Characteristics:

Random insertion order + few deletions: Operations trend toward O(log n) due to probabilistic balance. This is often the best choice for simplicity when insertion order is naturally random.
Many deletions: Performance degrades to approximately O(√n) as the tree becomes less balanced over time.
Sequential insertion order: Worst case O(n) - tree degenerates into a linked list. Do not use if insertion order is not random.

When to Use:: ✓ Insertion order is random or randomized ✓ Few deletions relative to insertions ✓ Simplicity and minimal overhead are priorities ✓ Testing/benchmarking against balanced trees

When NOT to Use:: ✗ Cannot guarantee random insertion order ✗ Frequent deletions ✗ Need guaranteed O(log n) worst-case performance ✗ Production code with adversarial inputs

WARNING**: If you cannot ensure random insertion order, use a balanced tree (Avl_Tree, Rb_Tree, Treap, etc.) instead.

Template Parameters

NodeType	Node template (BinNode or BinNodeVtl).
Key	The type of keys stored in the tree.
Compare	Comparison functor for ordering keys.

Complexity (assuming random insertion order):

Search: O(log n) expected, O(n) worst case
Insert: O(log n) expected, O(n) worst case
Delete: O(log n) expected, O(n) worst case
Space: O(n) - minimal overhead

Example:: BinTree<int> tree;

// Insert in random order (GOOD)

std::vector<int> keys = {50, 25, 75, 10, 30, 60, 90};

std::shuffle(keys.begin(), keys.end(), rng);

for (int k : keys)

tree.insert(new BinTree<int>::Node(k));

// Search

auto node = tree.search(30);

// Remove

auto removed = tree.remove(25);

delete removed;

// BAD: Sequential insertion (creates linked list)

// for (int i = 0; i < 1000; ++i)

// tree.insert(new BinTree<int>::Node(i)); // O(n²) total time!

Join this with t independently of the presence of duplicated keys.

Parameters

[in] t tree to join with this keys are inserted

Join exclusive of this with t

Exclusive means that all the keys of this are lesser than all the keys of t. This knowledge allows a more effcient way for joining that when the keys ranks are overlapped. However, use very carefully because the algorithm does not perform any check and the result would be incorrect.

Parameters

[in] t tree to exclusively join with this keys are inserted

inlinenoexcept

Split the tree according to a key.

split(key, l, r) splits the tree according to key. That is, if key is not present in the tree, then the tree is split in two trees l which contains the key lesser than key and r which contains the keys greater than key. If key is found in the tree, then the split is not done
