👍 However the time complexity is O(n log n) because you are adding n elements to the heap and each addition takes O(log n) time.

⚠️ Just noting this method isn't written yet.

The trick is:

  • Determine if there are left and right children using the formula.
  • Find the minimum child
  • if the current node is less than the minimum child swap them and call heap_down on the new current node
