Example of a binary max-heap with node keys being integers between 1 and 100. In computer science, a heap is a tree-based data structure that satisfies the heap property: In a max heap, for any given node C, if P is the parent node of C, then the key (the value) of P is greater than or equal to the key of C.
The term heap is derived from груда, Russian for "heap", "pile", or "stack". Anton Sushkevich used the term in his Theory of Generalized Groups (1937) which influenced Viktor Wagner, promulgator of semiheaps, heaps, and generalized heaps. [1]: 11 Груда contrasts with группа which was taken into Russian by transliteration.
Heap property: the key stored in each node is either greater than or equal to (≥) or less than or equal to (≤) the keys in the node's children, according to some total order. Heaps where the parent key is greater than or equal to (≥) the child keys are called max-heaps; those where it is less than or equal to (≤) are called min-heaps.
Heap files are lists of unordered records of variable size. Although sharing a similar name, heap files are widely different from in-memory heaps. In-memory heaps are ordered, as opposed to heap files. Simplest and most basic method insert efficient, with new records added at the end of the file, providing chronological order
This makes the min-max heap a very useful data structure to implement a double-ended priority queue. Like binary min-heaps and max-heaps, min-max heaps support logarithmic insertion and deletion and can be built in linear time. [3] Min-max heaps are often represented implicitly in an array; [4] hence it's referred to as an implicit data structure.
