Prim's algorithm is one of the most well known algms for finding minimum spanning tree of a weighted undirected graph, alongside Kruskal's algorithm. I thought it is better to implement it, and repo users can now use both of these algorithms and maybe do any comparison for educational purposes.
to implement the algorithm more efficiently, built-in binary heap in
container/heap
is used as a priority queue.
