I want to improve the section about tournament trees. Specifically, I want to add a better example (the current one uses a winner tree but a loser tree has better performance) and want to add more details to the algorithm (example code, running time). Tournament trees have a better running time than heaps (factor 2). Therefore, I want to move the section about tournament trees above the section about heaps. Is someone against it?
