void partial_sort( ExecutionPolicy&& policy, (4) (since

RandomIt first, RandomIt middle, RandomIt last,
Compare comp );
Rearranges elements such that the range [first, middle) contains the sorted
middle
− first smallest elements in the range [first, last).
The order of equal elements is not guaranteed to be preserved. The order of
the
remaining elements in the range [middle, last) is unspecified.
1) Elements are compared using operator<.
3) Elements are compared using the given binary comparison function comp.
2,4) Same as (1,3), but executed according to policy. These overloads do not
participate in overload resolution unless
std::is_execution_policy_v<std::decay_t<ExecutionPolicy>>
(until C++20)
std::is_execution_policy_v<std::remove_cvref_t<ExecutionPolicy>>
(since C++20) is true.
Parameters¶
first, last - random access iterators defining the range
middle - random access iterator defining the one-past-the-end iterator of the
range to be sorted
policy - the execution policy to use. See execution policy for details.
comparison function object (i.e. an object that satisfies the
requirements of Compare) which returns true if the first argument
is less than (i.e. is ordered before) the second.
The signature of the comparison function should be equivalent to the
following:
bool cmp(const Type1 &a, const Type2 &b);
comp -
While the signature does not need to have const &, the function must
not modify the objects passed to it and must be able to accept all
values of type (possibly const) Type1 and Type2 regardless of value
category (thus, Type1 & is not allowed
, nor is Type1 unless for Type1 a move is equivalent to a copy
(since C++11)).
The types Type1 and Type2 must be such that an object of type RandomIt
can be dereferenced and then implicitly converted to both of them.
Type requirements¶
-
RandomIt must meet the requirements of ValueSwappable and
LegacyRandomAccessIterator.
-
The type of dereferenced RandomIt must meet the requirements of
MoveAssignable and
MoveConstructible.
Return value¶
(none)
Complexity¶
Approximately (last-first)log(middle-first) applications of cmp.
Exceptions¶
The overloads with a template parameter named ExecutionPolicy
report errors as
follows:
* If execution of a function invoked as part of the algorithm throws an
exception
and ExecutionPolicy is one of the standard policies, std::terminate is
called.
For any other ExecutionPolicy, the behavior is implementation-defined.
* If the algorithm fails to allocate memory, std::bad_alloc is thrown.
Notes¶
Algorithm¶
The algorithm used is typically heap select to select the
smallest elements, and
heap sort to sort the selected elements in the heap in ascending order.
To select elements, a heap is used (see heap). For example, for operator<
as
comparison function, max-heap is used to select middle − first
smallest elements.
Heap sort is used after selection to sort [first, middle) selected elements
(see
std::sort_heap).
Intended use
std::partial_sort algorithms are intended to be used for small constant
numbers of
[first, middle) selected elements.
Possible implementation¶
See also the implementations in libstdc++ and libc++.
First version¶
template<typename RandomIt, typename Compare> void
partial_sort(RandomIt first, RandomIt middle, RandomIt last, Compare comp) {
if (first == middle)
return;
std::make_heap(first, middle, comp);
for (auto it {middle}; it != last; ++it) {
if (comp(*it, *first)) {
std::pop_heap(first, middle, comp);
std::iter_swap(middle - 1, it);
std::push_heap(first, middle, comp);
}
}
std::sort_heap(first, middle, comp); }
Second version¶
namespace impl { template<typename RandomIt, typename Compare =
std::less<typename
std::iterator_traits<RandomIt>::value_type>> void
sift_down(RandomIt begin, RandomIt end, const Compare &comp = {}) { //
sift down element at 'begin'
const auto length = static_cast<size_t>(end - begin);
size_t current = 0;
size_t next = 2;
while (next < length) {
if (comp(*(begin + next), *(begin + (next - 1))))
--next;
if (!comp(*(begin + current), *(begin + next)))
return;
std::iter_swap(begin + current, begin + next);
current = next;
next = 2 * current + 2;
}
--next;
if (next < length && comp(*(begin + current), *(begin + next)))
std::iter_swap(begin + current, begin + next); }
template<typename RandomIt, typename Compare =
std::less<typename
std::iterator_traits<RandomIt>::value_type>> void
heap_select(RandomIt begin, RandomIt middle, RandomIt end, const Compare
&comp = {}) {
std::make_heap(begin, middle, comp);
for (auto i = middle; i != end; ++i)
if (comp(*i, *begin)) {
std::iter_swap(begin, i);
sift_down(begin, middle, comp);
} } } // namespace impl
template<typename RandomIt, typename Compare =
std::less<typename
std::iterator_traits<RandomIt>::value_type>> void
partial_sort(RandomIt begin, RandomIt middle, RandomIt end, Compare comp =
{}) {
impl::heap_select(begin, middle, end, comp);
std::sort_heap(begin, middle, comp); }
Note that the first version may be less efficient in practice.
Example¶
// Run this code
#include <algorithm>
#include <array>
#include <functional>
#include <iostream>
auto print = [](auto const& s, int middle) {
for (int a : s) { std::cout << a << ' '; }
std::cout << '\n';
if (middle > 0) {
while (middle-->0) { std::cout << "──"; }
std::cout << '^';
} else if (middle < 0) {
for (auto i = s.size() + middle; --i; std::cout << " ");
for (std::cout << '^'; middle++ < 0; std::cout <<
"──");
}
std::cout << '\n';
};
int main()
{
std::array<int, 10> s{5, 7, 4, 2, 8, 6, 1, 9, 0, 3};
print(s, 0);
std::partial_sort(s.begin(), s.begin() + 3, s.end());
print(s, 3);
std::partial_sort(s.rbegin(), s.rbegin() + 4, s.rend());
print(s, -4);
std::partial_sort(s.rbegin(), s.rbegin() + 5, s.rend(), std::greater{});
print(s, -5);
}
