In this tutorial, we will be going over a binary heap, using python. Within this video, we'll be implementing a binary heap using an array. We'll be going over what a Binary Heap is, as well as going over the Iterative Implementation as well as a Recursive Implementation. A Binary Heap comes in 2 forms, we have a Min-Heap and a Max-Heap. Within this video we'll be going over a Min-Heap. Once you understand how to implement a Min-Heap, you should be able to implement a Max-Heap on your own. A Binary Heap is also an Implementation of the Abstract Data Structure of a Priority Queue.
