Mastering Min-Heap: Finding K Pairs with Smallest Sums in C++ | 373 LeetCode

Welcome back to VanAmsen Coding! In today's episode, we're optimizing algorithms with the power of data structures, particularly heaps. We're tackling a problem involving finding 'K' pairs with smallest sums from two sorted arrays, showcasing how a min-heap can significantly enhance efficiency.

This video takes you on a journey from understanding the problem requirements to crafting an optimized solution using a min-heap. We discuss the intuition behind using a heap and how it works, walk through the C++ code, and test our solution with real-world examples. You'll not only learn how to solve this problem, but also gain deeper insights into heaps and priority queues, valuable knowledge that can be applied to a variety of other challenges.
