#include <iostream>
#include <queue>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
  int thedata[] = {45, 34, 56, 27, 71, 50, 62};
  priority_queue<int> pq;  
  cout << "The priority_queue size is now " << pq.size() << endl;
  
  cout << "Pushing 4 elements " << endl;
  for (int i = 0; i < 4; ++i)
    pq.push(thedata[i]);
  cout << "The priority_queue size is now " << pq.size() << endl;

  cout << "Popping 3 elements " << endl;
  for (int i = 0; i < 3; ++i) {
    cout << pq.top() << endl;
    pq.pop();
  }
  cout << "The priority_queue size is now " << pq.size() << endl;

  return 0;
}

The priority_queue size is now 0
Pushing 4 elements
The priority_queue size is now 4
Popping 3 elements
56
45
34
The priority_queue size is now 1
