fromDistinctAscList :: [(k,a)] -> Map k a fromDistinctAscList xs = build const (length xs) xs where -- 1) use continutations so that we use heap space instead of stack space. -- 2) special case for n==5 to build bushier trees. build c 0 xs' = c Tip xs' build c 5 xs' = case xs' of ((k1,x1):(k2,x2):(k3,x3):(k4,x4):(k5,x5):xx) -> c (bin k4 x4 (bin k2 x2 (singleton k1 x1) (singleton k3 x3)) (singleton k5 x5)) xx
By the way, did anyone test if (or when) this n==5 case "bushier trees" gains something? Thanks Christian
