Class SuggestTree

java.lang.Object

org.matheclipse.core.eval.util.SuggestTree

public class SuggestTree
extends java.lang.Object

An autocomplete data structure that enables you to quickly look up the top k terms with a given prefix in a set of weighted terms. The structure is based on a compressed trie of the terms (implemented as a randomized ternary search tree) in which each node holds a weight-ordered list of the k highest-weighted terms in its subtree.

Note that this implementation is not synchronized. If multiple threads access a Suggest Tree concurrently, and at least one of the threads modifies the tree, it must be synchronized externally.

getEntry

public SuggestTree.Entry getEntry(java.lang.String term)

Returns the tree entry for the specified term, or null if there is no such entry.

Parameters:

term - the term for which to return the corresponding tree entry

the tree entry for the specified term, or null if there is no such entry

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the specified term is an empty string

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified term is null

iterator

public final SuggestTree.Iterator iterator()

Returns an iterator over the terms in the tree.

Returns:

an iterator over the terms in the tree

size

public final int size()

Returns:

the number of terms in the tree

put

public void put(java.lang.String term,
                int weight)

Inserts the specified term with the specified weight into the tree, or reweights the term if it is already present.
