Description of Change
This pull request introduces a implementation in C, addressing issue #1496
The Min Binary Heap is a fundamental data structure used to efficiently manage priority queues, scheduling algorithms, and graph-based shortest path computations such as Dijkstra’s algorithm.
The implementation provides clean, modular, and well-documented functions to perform essential heap operations with their optimal time complexities:
The implementation includes:
A dynamic array-based Min Heap
Functions for insertion, extraction, and heap property maintenance and heapifyDown
A sample main() demonstrating usage
Proper memory management and validation checks
