Heap (data-structure)

In computer science, a heap is a specialized tree-based data structure that satisfies the heap property described below.

In a min heap, if P is a parent node of C, then the key (the value) of P is less than or equal to the key of C.

In a max heap, the key of P is greater than or equal to the key of C

The node at the "top" of the heap with no parents is called the root node.
