A Guide to Python Priority Queue
When working with data, applications sometimes need to process elements in a specific order, as opposed to the order in which data arrives. That’s where priority queues come in. Unlike regular queues, which follow a first in, first out (FIFO) principle, a priority queue processes elements based on their priority. Think of it as a VIP line at an exclusive event – the highest-priority guests always jump the queue, regardless of when they arrive.
