CharArrayPriorityQueue (fastutil 8.1.1)

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

All Implemented Interfaces:

CharPriorityQueue, PriorityQueue<java.lang.Character>, java.io.Serializable
```
public class CharArrayPriorityQueue
extends java.lang.Object
implements CharPriorityQueue, java.io.Serializable
```
A type-specific array-based priority queue.
Instances of this class represent a priority queue using a backing array—all operations are performed directly on the array. The array is enlarged as needed, but it is never shrunk. Use the trim() method to reduce its size, if necessary.
This implementation is extremely inefficient, but it is difficult to beat when the size of the queue is very small.
