Description

Shows array and tree representations. Step-by-step explanations of what is happening, with bounce-along pseudocode.

Evaluation

Rather unclear what this does. There is more going on than building a priority queue (heap). Values are going in and out, sort of like replacement selection in an external sort. At the detail level, its reasonably clear what is happening in terms of a value going into the tree, etc. The total presentation is long and tedious, however.
