deleting an element from a binary heap

Deleting an element from a binary heap refers to the process of removing a specific element from the heap while maintaining its heap property. This involves replacing the element with the last element in the heap, adjusting the heap structure to preserve the heap property, and finally reducing the size of the heap. The deletion operation in a binary heap is typically performed in O(log n) time complexity, where n is the number of elements in the heap.
