avl tree

[Zunbeltz Izaola]

Hi,

I'm trying to install avl module from
http://www.nightmare.com/squirl/python-ext/avl

and i had the following instruction to install

Building:

Unix:
First, cd $(AVL_LIB), then 'make libavl.a'

Then copy AVLmodule.c into your Modules directory.
add a few lines like this to your Python/Modules/Setup file.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
# avl module
AVL_LIB=/usr/src/other-homes/rushing/python/avl
avl AVLmodule.o -DDEBUG_AVL -I$(AVL_LIB) -L$(AVL_LIB) -lavl
-------------------------------------------------------------

I have build livavl.a, but i don't understan where is Python/Modules/Setup
and where goes the AVLModule.c file goes.
Could anyone help me,

Thanks,

Zunbeltz

I'm afraid you won't be happy with the code. It's very old and likely
won't compile. We have an inhouse version of this module which
compiles and run on Sparc solaris (32 Bit) and linux x86 with Python
up to 2.4. I fixed some warnigs just today for compilation on Linux
x86_64, it also seems to work on this platform now. Installation is
setup.py based. I'm quite sure we once sent patches to Sam Rushing,
but they never made it into his release. I'll try to publish our
version the next days.

Berthold

Thanks. I will be looking forward to the release.

You can grab it from

<http://starship.python.net/~bhoel/avl-2.1.0.tar.gz>

Please report any problems to me. I'll do my best to solve them.

Thanks i will play with it. But i have realize that what i need was
exactly a binary tree. I haven't used tree yet and i don't know if i
can use the avl instaead an ordinary binary tree.
I have to construct a tree like this

A

B C

A C A B

B C A B B C A C
but i think i can construct a avl using left/right. Am I correct?

Thanks again,

Zunbeltz

The point with AVL trees is, that they are self balancing, If you want
to 'define' the structure of the tree, you have to find another
solution.
