Ordered Processing के लिए PriorityQueue

import java.util.PriorityQueue;

PriorityQueue<Integer> pq = new PriorityQueue<>();
pq.offer(30);
pq.offer(10);
pq.offer(20);

System.out.println(pq.poll()); // 10 (min)

maxPQ.offer(10);
maxPQ.offer(50);

System.out.println(maxPQ.poll()); // 50 (max)

record Job(String name, int priority) {}

    Comparator.comparingInt(Job::priority) // ascending priority
);
queue.offer(new Job("Backup", 5));
queue.offer(new Job("Alert", 1));
queue.offer(new Job("Report", 3));

System.out.println(queue.poll().name()); // Alert (priority 1)

PriorityQueue<String> pq = new PriorityQueue<>();
pq.offer("banana");
pq.offer("apple");

System.out.println(pq.peek()); // apple (not removed)
System.out.println(pq.peek()); // apple (still there)
System.out.println(pq.poll()); // apple (removed)
System.out.println(pq.peek()); // banana

record Task(String name, int priority) {}

PriorityQueue<Task> scheduler = new PriorityQueue<>(
    Comparator.comparingInt(Task::priority).reversed() // highest first
);
scheduler.offer(new Task("Low", 1));

record Entry(int node, int cost) {}

    // expand neighbors...
}

PriorityQueue<Integer> pq = new PriorityQueue<>();
pq.addAll(List.of(5,3,1,4,2));

// WRONG for sorted output:
for (int n : pq) System.out.print(n+" "); // unordered!

// CORRECT:
while (!pq.isEmpty()) System.out.print(pq.poll()+" "); // 1 2 3 4 5
