heapify up
"Heapify up" is a process in computer science used to maintain the heap property in a binary heap data structure. It involves swapping an element with its parent while traversing up the heap, ensuring that the larger (or smaller, depending on the type of heap) elements are always towards the top. This operation is primarily used after inserting an element into a heap to restore the heap property efficiently.
