What does offer/peek/poll in Java PriorityQueue translate to Python?

问题

我正在尝试在Python中重新实现Java的优先队列(PriorityQueue)数据结构,但是看起来Java的优先队列有一些有趣的方法:

  • offer(E e)
    将指定的元素插入到此优先队列中。
  • peek()
    检索但不删除此队列的头部,如果此队列为空,则返回null。
  • poll()
    检索并删除此队列的头部,如果此队列为空,则返回null。

这在Python的优先队列中如何翻译?我在Python的版本中没有看到这些方法:https://docs.python.org/3/library/queue.html#queue.PriorityQueue

  • get() 从队列中移除并返回一个项目。
  • put() 将项目放入队列中。

如果我的理解是正确的:

  • poll() == get()

但不确定 offer() 是否与 put() 相同。我们如何重新实现 peek()

英文:

I am trying to reimplement Java's PQ in Python data structure, but looks like Java's PQ have some interesting methods:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/PriorityQueue.html

  • offer(E e)
    Inserts the specified element into this priority queue.
  • peek()
    Retrieves, but does not remove, the head of this queue, or returns null if this queue is empty.
  • poll()
    Retrieves and removes the head of this queue, or returns null if this queue is empty.

What does this translate to in Python's PQ? I don't see these methods in Python's version: https://docs.python.org/3/library/queue.html#queue.PriorityQueue

  • get() Remove and return an item from the queue.
  • put() Put item into the queue.

If my understanding is correct:

  • poll() == get()

But wasn't sure whether offer() is the same as put(). And how we have to re-implement peek() ?

得分: 1

queue 模块专门设计用于线程间通信。其设计不旨在促进单线程使用;例如,诸如 peek 这样的方法在线程同步机制中并没有太多意义,因此 queue.PriorityQueue 不支持 peek。这与 Go 通道没有查看机制的方式类似。

如果您需要优先队列而不是用于线程间通信的原因,那么 heapq 模块更合适。使用 heapqpeek 就是 heap[0]

英文:

The queue module is specifically designed for inter-thread communication. Its design is not intended to facilitate single-threaded usage; for example, methods like peek don't make much sense for a thread synchronization mechanism, so queue.PriorityQueue doesn't have peek support. This is similar to how Go channels have no peek mechanism.

If you want a priority queue for reasons other than inter-thread communication, the heapq module is more appropriate. With heapq, peek is just heap[0].
