This is a library implementing skip lists for the Go programming
language (http://golang.org/).
.
Skip lists are a data structure that can be used in place of balanced
trees. Skip lists use probabilistic balancing rather than strictly
enforced balancing and as a result the algorithms for insertion and
deletion in skip lists are much simpler and significantly faster than
equivalent algorithms for balanced trees.
.
Skip lists were first described in Pugh, William (June 1990)
(ftp://ftp.cs.umd.edu/pub/skipLists/skiplists.pdf). "Skip lists:
a probabilistic alternative to balanced trees". Communications of the
