minimizer-queue

Fast computation of minimizers using a monotone queue.

Features

• insertion in amortized constant time
• lookup in constant time
• keeps track of the relative position of the minimizers
• supports custom hasher, using wyhash by default
• can be seeded to produce a different ordering
• optimized modulo computation with strength_reduce

Example usage

use minimizer_queue::MinimizerQueue;

let mut queue = MinimizerQueue::new(3); // width 3
queue.insert(1);
queue.insert(2);
queue.insert(3);
queue.get_min(); // element with the smallest hash among 1, 2 and 3

queue.insert(4);
queue.get_min(); // element with the smallest hash among 2, 3 and 4
