CharHeapPriorityQueue (fastutil-object-short-maps 8.3.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- it.unimi.dsi.fastutil.chars.CharHeapPriorityQueue

All Implemented Interfaces:

CharPriorityQueue, PriorityQueue<Character>, Serializable
```
public class CharHeapPriorityQueue
extends Object
implements CharPriorityQueue, Serializable
```
A type-specific heap-based priority queue.
Instances of this class represent a priority queue using a heap. The heap is enlarged as needed, but it is never shrunk. Use the trim() method to reduce its size, if necessary.

public CharHeapPriorityQueue(int capacity,
                             CharComparator c)
```
    Creates a new empty queue with a given capacity and comparator.
    
    Parameters:
    
    capacity - the initial capacity of this queue.
    
    c - the comparator used in this queue, or null for the natural order.
  - CharHeapPriorityQueue
```
public CharHeapPriorityQueue(int capacity)

    Creates a new empty queue with a given capacity and using the natural order.
    
    Parameters:
    
    capacity - the initial capacity of this queue.

```
public CharHeapPriorityQueue(CharComparator c)
```
    Creates a new empty queue with a given comparator.
    
    Parameters:
    
    c - the comparator used in this queue, or null for the natural order.

                             CharComparator c)
```
    Wraps a given array in a queue using a given comparator.
    The queue returned by this method will be backed by the given array. The first size element of the array will be rearranged so to form a heap (this is more efficient than enqueing the elements of a one by one).
    
    Parameters:
    
    a - an array.
    
    size - the number of elements to be included in the queue.
    
    c - the comparator used in this queue, or null for the natural order.

```
    Wraps a given array in a queue using a given comparator.
    The queue returned by this method will be backed by the given array. The elements of the array will be rearranged so to form a heap (this is more efficient than enqueing the elements of a one by one).
    
    Parameters:
    
    a - an array.
    
    c - the comparator used in this queue, or null for the natural order.

```
public CharHeapPriorityQueue(char[] a,
                             int size)

    The queue returned by this method will be backed by the given array. The first size element of the array will be rearranged so to form a heap (this is more efficient than enqueing the elements of a one by one).
    
    Parameters:
    
    a - an array.
    
    size - the number of elements to be included in the queue.
