% Purpose: Binary tree implementation of "association lists".
% Note : the keys should be ground, the associated values need not be.
% This stores association pairs in a tree structure; the empty tree
% is just "t". For example, to store the pair "foo-moo" in a hitherto
% empty tree
% put_assoc(foo,t,moo,T)
% To add to tree T the pair "bee-flea" giving the tree U
% put_assoc(bee,T,flea,U)
% Test data are at the end of the file to help
% Create a new tree by putting a new pair into an existing one.
% Call: put_assoc(+Key,+Old_tree,?Value,-New_Tree).
put_assoc(Key, t(Key,_,L,R), Val, t(Key,Val,L,R)). % Key = K. Replace.
put_assoc(Key, t(K,V,L,R), Val, t(K,V,Tree,R)) :- % Key < K
Key @< K,
!,
put_assoc(Key,L,Val,Tree).
put_assoc(Key, t(K,V,L,R), Val, t(K,V,L,Tree)) :- % Key > K
!,
put_assoc(Key,R,Val,Tree).
put_assoc(Key, t, Val, t(Key,Val,t,t)). % Empty tree
% get_assoc gets the Val associated with Key in a tree.
% get_assoc(foo,+Tree,-V)
% will find the value associated with "foo" in "Tree".
% If Key is uninstantiated then get_assoc will work sensibly for the calling
% patterns
% get_assoc(-Key,+Tree,-V)
% which will find every K-V pair on back tracking and
% get_assoc(-Key,+Tree,+V)
% although the pattern get_assoc(-K,+T,+V) is *time consuming*.
