Binary Heap/Priority Queue Code Implementation

The previous article, The Basics of Binary Heaps, introduced the fundamental properties, APIs, and common applications of binary heaps. In this article, we will guide you step-by-step to implement a priority queue using a visualization panel.

We'll start by creating a simplified version of a priority queue to help you understand the core operations of a binary heap, namely sink and swim. Finally, I'll provide a more complete code implementation.
