use Heap::Elem::StrRev( StrRElem ); use Heap::Fibonacci;
my $heap = Heap::Fibonacci->new; my $elem;

Heap::Elem::StrRev is used to wrap string values into an element that can be managed on a heap. The top of the heap will have the largest element still remaining. (See the Heap::Elem::Str manpage if you want the heap to always return the smallest element.)
The details of the Elem interface are described in the Heap::Elem manpage.
The details of using a Heap interface are described in the Heap manpage.
