+/**
+ * @file
+ * @brief
+ * [Preemptive Priority
+ * Scheduling]
+ *  Preemptive Priority Scheduling is a   CPU scheduling algorithm
+ *  that assigns priorities to processes and selects the process
+ *  with the highest priority to execute. If a higher-priority
+ *  process becomes available, it preempts the currently executing.
+ *  This algorithm ensures that higher-priority processes
+ *  are given preference, but it may lead to starvation of lower-priority
+ *   if not handled properly.*
+ *
+ * @details
+ *  Algorithm Overview:
+ *    1. Initialize a set of processes with such as ID, arrival time,
+ *       burst time, priority, executed time, and completion time.
+ *      2. Start with an empty queue of ready processes and initialize variables
+ *         to keep track of the current time, executed processes, and the currently
+ *         executing process.
+ *      3. Repeat the following steps until all processes are executed:
+ *         a. Find the process with the highest priority that has arrived and
+ *           not completed yet.
+ *       b. Execute the selected process for one time unit, updating its executed time and the current time.
+ *       c. If the selected process completes, calculate its completion time, print a completion message, and update turnaround and waiting times.
+ *       d. If no suitable process is found to execute, increment the current time.
+ *     4. Calculate and print the average turnaround time and average waiting time.
