The frequency is also stored in the heap right? So to do heapify based on frequency, first you have to spot the element on the heap. That itself will take O(n). [ Heapfying after that takes only O(log n) ] If you use a hashmap and store frequencies, and each time mostFrequent is called, do a linear search on the map, it will have the same complexity. Can anyone come up with a better solution?
