## Public predicates

### `insert/4`

Inserts the new pair into a heap, returning the updated heap.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`insert(Key,Value,Heap,NewHeap)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`insert(+key,+value,+heap,-heap)` - `one`

### `insert_all/3`

Inserts a list of pairs into a heap, returning the updated heap.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`insert_all(List,Heap,NewHeap)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`insert_all(@list(pairs),+heap,-heap)` - `one`

### `delete/4`

Deletes and returns the top pair in a heap returning the updated heap.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`delete(Heap,TopKey,TopValue,NewHeap)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`delete(+heap,?key,?value,-heap)` - `zero_or_one`

### `merge/3`

Merges two heaps.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`merge(Heap1,Heap2,NewHeap)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`merge(+heap,+heap,-heap)` - `one`

### `empty/1`

True if the heap is empty.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`empty(Heap)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`empty(@heap)` - `zero_or_one`

### `size/2`

Returns the number of heap elements.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`size(Heap,Size)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`size(+heap,?integer)` - `zero_or_one`

### `as_list/2`

Returns the current set of pairs in the heap as a list, sorted into ascending order of the keys.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`as_list(Heap,List)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`as_list(+heap,-list)` - `one`

### `as_heap/2`

Constructs a heap from a list of pairs.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`as_heap(List,Heap)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`as_heap(+list,-heap)` - `one`

### `top/3`

Returns the top pair in the heap. Fails if the heap is empty.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`top(Heap,TopKey,TopValue)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`top(+heap,?key,?value)` - `zero_or_one`

### `top_next/5`

Returns the top pair and the next pair in the heap. Fails if the heap does not have at least two elements.

Compilation flags:
`static`
Template:
`top_next(Heap,TopKey,TopValue,NextKey,NextValue)`
Mode and number of proofs:
`top_next(+heap,?key,?value,?key,?value)` - `zero_or_one`
