Heap/Priority Queue

[blahpers]

Greetings,

 

The short of it:  Anybody know offhand of a good Lua implementation of a heap or priority queue suitable for use in a DST script?  (Bonus points if there's already one available in the code.)  I'm feeling too lazy to write one from scratch but am having trouble finding one that isn't buggy or under some license or other.

 

Don't dig too deep for this; I just want to avoid re-re-re-re-reinventing the wheel if possible.

 

Thanks!

@blahpers, A few results down on a google search for "Lua priority queue". Looks decent. I wouldn't call implementing a simple data structure like this reinventing the wheel, though.

 

There are a few queue-like things in the code, but they're pretty embedded in their particular applications. I didn't see anything obviously usable.

@blahpers, yeah, what @rezecib said.

You make your own, or you use a library/example from outside. Don't Starve's lua is basic.

 

The closest thing to a priority queue you can use is a brain though.

Alright, I'll stop being lazy then.  Thanks!  : D
