Max Heap: Introduction

Explore the basics of Max Heaps, understand how to build a max heap from an array, and learn key operations like insertion and removing the maximum while preserving heap order. Gain foundational knowledge to implement and manipulate max heaps in JavaScript for coding interview preparation.

Building a Max-Heap

Max heaps follow the max heap property meaning the key at the parent node is always greater than the keys at the child nodes. Heaps can be implemented using arrays.

Initially, elements are placed in nodes in the same order as they appear in the array. Then a function is called over the whole heap in ...
