Is there an implementation of the Heap data structure in .Net?

Solution

This class I've been working on might be useful for you. Obviously I give you no guarantees.

public sealed class FibonacciHeap<TKey, TValue>
{
    readonly List<Node> _root = new List<Node>();
    int _count;
    Node _min;

    public void Push(TKey key, TValue value)
    {
        Insert(new Node {
            Key = key,
            Value = value
        });
    }       

    public KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue> Peek()
    {
        if (_min == null)
            throw new InvalidOperationException();
        return new KeyValuePair<TKey,TValue>(_min.Key, _min.Value);
    }       

    public KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue> Pop()
    {
        if (_min == null)
            throw new InvalidOperationException();
        var min = ExtractMin();
        return new KeyValuePair<TKey,TValue>(min.Key, min.Value);
    }

    void Insert(Node node)
    {
        _count++;
        _root.Add(node);
        if (_min == null)
        {
            _min = node;
        }
        else if (Comparer<TKey>.Default.Compare(node.Key, _min.Key) < 0)
        {
            _min = node;
        }
    }

    Node ExtractMin()
    {
        var result = _min;
        if (result == null)
            return null;
        foreach (var child in result.Children)
        {
            child.Parent = null;
            _root.Add(child);
        }
        _root.Remove(result);
        if (_root.Count == 0)
        {
            _min = null;
        }
        else
        {
            _min = _root[0];
            Consolidate();
        }
        _count--;
        return result;
    }

    void Consolidate()
    {
        var a = new Node[UpperBound()];
        for (int i = 0; i < _root.Count; i++)
        {
            var x = _root[i];
            var d = x.Children.Count;
            while (true)
            {

                d++;
            }
            a[d] = x;
        }

I'm curious to know how this performs when compared to a simple binary heap. Have you done any comparisons?

I think the questioner wants to know if there is a .Net framework class for Heap data structure.
