Heap Operations
Common heap operations are:
- Insert: Adds a new element to the heap while maintaining the heap property.
- Extract Max/Min: Removes the maximum or minimum element from the heap and returns it.
- Heapify: Converts an arbitrary binary tree into a heap.
Heap Data Structure
A Heap is a complete binary tree data structure that satisfies the heap property: for every node, the value of its children is less than or equal to its own value. Heaps are usually used to implement priority queues, where the smallest (or largest) element is always at the root of the tree.
