##### sort_heap

###### Prototype

    template<class RandomAccessRange>
    RandomAccessRange& sort_heap(RandomAccessRange& rng);

    template<class RandomAccessRange>
    const RandomAccessRange& sort_heap(const RandomAccessRange& rng);

    template<class RandomAccessRange, class Compare>
    RandomAccessRange& sort_heap(RandomAccessRange& rng, Compare pred);

    template<class RandomAccessRange, class Compare>
    const RandomAccessRange& sort_heap(const RandomAccessRange& rng, Compare pred);

###### Description

`sort_heap` turns a heap into a sorted range.

The ordering relationship is determined by using `operator<` in the non-predicate versions, and by evaluating `pred` in the predicate versions.

###### Definition

Defined in the header file `boost/range/algorithm/heap_algorithm.hpp`

###### Requirements

For the non-predicate versions:

- `RandomAccessRange` is a model of the Random Access Range Concept.
- `RandomAccessRange` is mutable.
- `RandomAccessRange`'s value type is a model of the `LessThanComparableConcept`.
- The ordering of objects of type `RandomAccessRange`'s value type is a strict weak ordering, as defined in the `LessThanComparableConcept` requirements.

For the predicate versions:

- `RandomAccessRange` is a model of the Random Access Range Concept.
- `RandomAccessRange` is mutable.
- `Compare` is a model of the `StrictWeakOrderingConcept`.
- `RandomAccessRange`'s value type is convertible to both of `Compare`'s argument types.

###### Precondition:

`rng` is a heap.

###### Complexity

At most `N * log(N)` comparisons, where `N` is `distance(rng)`.
