Alternatively, for each ordered quadruple (row, column, orientation, number of

Java Structures: Data Structures for the Principled Programmer
... This book focuses on data structures implemented in the Python language.
Python is a scripting language. This means that it can be used to solve a wide
variety of problems and its programs are presented as scripts that are directly
interpreted. In traditional programming languages, like C or Java, p ...

that allows even a non-expert to design efficient wait-free data structures. We use the
proposed transformation to obtain ...

Interval tree
In computer science, an interval tree is a tree data structure to hold intervals. Specifically, it allows one to efficiently find all intervals that overlap with any given interval or point. It is often used for windowing queries, for instance, to find all roads on a computerized map inside a rectangular viewport, or to find all visible elements inside a three-dimensional scene. A similar data structure is the segment tree.The trivial solution is to visit each interval and test whether it intersects the given point or interval, which requires O(n) time, where n is the number of intervals in the collection. Since a query may return all intervals, for example if the query is a large interval intersecting all intervals in the collection, this is asymptotically optimal; however, we can do better by considering output-sensitive algorithms, where the runtime is expressed in terms of m, the number of intervals produced by the query. Interval trees have a query time of O(log n + m) and an initial creation time of O(n log n), while limiting memory consumption to O(n). After creation, interval trees may be dynamic, allowing efficient insertion and deletion of an interval in O(log n). If the endpoints of intervals are within a small integer range (e.g., in the range [1,...,O(n)]), faster data structures exist with preprocessing time O(n) and query time O(1+m) for reporting m intervals containing a given query point.
