Please do not use the Update Branch button unless necessary (e.g. fixing conflicts, jogging the CI, or very old PRs) as it uses valuable resources. For more information see the devguide. |
Address review feedback: drop the remainder of the sentence after "heaps are useful memory structures to know" to avoid awkward impersonal rewording of the original first-person text.
