After inserting or lowering a key in a minimum-oriented binary heap, compare it with its parent in a rooted tree. Exchange them while the moving key is smaller, then continue at its new index. Stop at the root of a tree or when the heap order is satisfied. This repair assumes the rest of the binary heap was valid before the insertion or key decrease.
