Abstract: Two algorithms for inserting a random element into a random heap are shown to be optimal (in the sense that they use the least number of comparisons on the average among all comparison-based algorithms) for di#erent values of n under a uniform model. Key words. Heaps, Hu#man coding scheme, expectedly optimal algorithms.
