Segment Tree

Usage:

Add SegmentTree class to your code by including the file segtree.h.

For running the main.cpp example program in examples/, run cmake .. in the bin/ directory, followed by make. In the same directory, the executable example1 is created.

For running the tests described in tests/, run cmake .. and make as above in the bin/ directory. The executable tests is then created in the same directory.

Similarly, for performance testing, do the same as above and run ./performancetests <option> <number of elements> where <option> may be

• 1. Only queries
• 2. Only updates
• 3. Queries and Updates

The operations on the segment tree will equal 10^5.

To create a SegmentTree object:

From a vector<Data> variable named vec_tree which contains the leaf values, and a function pointer / functor / lambda / std::function type variable named binary_function:

SegmentTree<Data> sTree{
    vec_tree,
    binary_function,
    bool_val
};

bool_val, if True, sets the tree to recursive mode, otherwise to iterative mode. Make sure that binary_function is representable of the form std::function<Data(Data&, Data&)>.

From a Data type variable named init_value which is the default value of all leaf nodes, and a function pointer / functor / lambda / std::function type variable named binary_function, and the number of leaves n_leaves:

SegmentTree<Data> sTree{
    init_value,
    n_leaves,
    binary_function,
    bool_val
};

Querying

To query for the segment value across a range [l_index, r_index] of the leaves (zero-indexed):

sTree.Update(
    l_index,
    r_index
)

Updating

To update the leaf value at an index (zero-indexed) t_index of the tree with Data type variable of name new_value:

sTree.Query(
    new_value,
    t_value
);
