<h3>Prototype</h3>
<tt>Sort_heap</tt> is an overloaded name; there are actually two 
<tt>sort_heap</tt> functions.    
<pre>
template &lt;class <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">RandomAccessIterator</A>&gt;
void sort_heap(RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator last);

template &lt;class <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">RandomAccessIterator</A>, class <A href="StrictWeakOrdering.html">StrictWeakOrdering</A>&gt;
void sort_heap(RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator last,
               StrictWeakOrdering comp);
</pre>                   
<h3>Description</h3>
<tt>Sort_heap</tt> turns a heap <A href="#1">[1]</A> <tt>[first, last)</tt> into a sorted range.  
Note that this is not a stable sort: the relative order of equivalent
elements is not guaranteed to be preserved.
<P>
The two versions of <tt>sort_heap</tt> differ in how they define whether one
element is less than another.  The first version compares
objects using <tt>operator&lt;</tt>, and the second compares objects using
a <A href="functors.html">function object</A> <tt>comp</tt>.
<h3>Definition</h3>
Defined in the standard header <A href="algorithm">algorithm</A>, and in the nonstandard
backward-compatibility header <A href="algo.h">algo.h</A>.
<h3>Requirements on types</h3>
For the first version, the one that takes two arguments:
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>RandomAccessIterator</tt> is a model of <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">Random Access Iterator</A>.
<LI>
<tt>RandomAccessIterator</tt> is mutable.
<LI>
<tt>RandomAccessIterator</tt>'s value type is a model of <A href="LessThanComparable.html">LessThan Comparable</A>.
<LI>
The ordering on objects of <tt>RandomAccessIterator</tt>'s value type is a <i>strict
   weak ordering</i>, as defined in the <A href="LessThanComparable.html">LessThan Comparable</A> requirements.
</UL>
For the second version, the one that takes three arguments:
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>RandomAccessIterator</tt> is a model of <A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">Random Access Iterator</A>.
<LI>
<tt>RandomAccessIterator</tt> is mutable.
<LI>
<tt>StrictWeakOrdering</tt> is a model of <A href="StrictWeakOrdering.html">Strict Weak Ordering</A>.
<LI>
<tt>RandomAccessIterator</tt>'s value type is convertible to
   <tt>StrictWeakOrdering</tt>'s argument type.
</UL>
<h3>Preconditions</h3>
For the first version, the one that takes two arguments:
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>[first, last)</tt> is a valid range.
<LI>
<tt>[first, last)</tt> is a heap.  That is, <tt><A href="is_heap.html">is_heap</A>(first, last)</tt>
   is <tt>true</tt>.
</UL>
For the second version, the one that takes three arguments:
<UL>
<LI>
<tt>[first, last)</tt> is a valid range.
<LI>
<tt>[first, last)</tt> is a heap.  That is, <tt><A href="is_heap.html">is_heap</A>(first, last, comp)</tt>
   is <tt>true</tt>.
</UL>
<h3>Complexity</h3>
At most <tt>N * log(N)</tt> comparisons, where <tt>N</tt> is <tt>last - first</tt>.
<h3>Example</h3>
<pre>
int main()
{
  int A[] = {1, 4, 2, 8, 5, 7};
  const int N = sizeof(A) / sizeof(int);

  <A href="make_heap.html">make_heap</A>(A, A+N);
  <A href="copy.html">copy</A>(A, A+N, <A href="ostream_iterator.html">ostream_iterator</A>&lt;int&gt;(cout, &quot; &quot;));
  cout &lt;&lt; endl;

  sort_heap(A, A+N);
  <A href="copy.html">copy</A>(A, A+N, <A href="ostream_iterator.html">ostream_iterator</A>&lt;int&gt;(cout, &quot; &quot;));
  cout &lt;&lt; endl;
}
</pre>
<h3>Notes</h3>
<P><A name="1">[1]</A>
A heap is a particular way of ordering the elements in a range of
<A href="RandomAccessIterator.html">Random Access Iterators</A> <tt>[f, l)</tt>.  The reason heaps are useful
(especially for sorting, or as priority queues) is that they satisfy
two important properties.  First, <tt>*f</tt> is the largest element in the
heap.  Second, it is possible to add an element to a heap (using
<tt>push_heap</tt>), or to remove <tt>*f</tt>, in logarithmic time.
Internally, a heap is a tree represented as a sequential range.
The tree is constructed so that that each
node is less than or equal to its parent node.
