In linear data structure data is organized in sequential order and in non-linear data structure data is organized in random order. A tree is a very popular non-linear data structure used in a wide range of applications. A tree data structure can be defined as follows...
In a tree data structure, we use the following terminology... Root In a tree data structure, the first node is called as Root Node. Every tree must have a root node. We can say that the root node is the origin of the tree data structure. In any tree, there must be only one root node. We never have multiple root nodes in a tree.
Edge In a tree data structure, the connecting link between any two nodes is called as EDGE. In a tree with ' N ' number of nodes there will be a maximum of ' N-1 ' number of edges. Parent In a tree data structure, the node which is a predecessor of any node is called as PARENT NODE. In simple words, the node which has a branch from it to any other node is called a parent node. Parent node can also be defined as " The node which has child / children ". Child In a tree data structure, the node which is descendant of any node is called as CHILD Node. In simple words, the node which has a link from its parent node is called as child node. In a tree, any parent node can have any number of child nodes. In a tree, all the nodes except root are child nodes.
Degree In a tree data structure, the total number of children of a node is called as DEGREE of that Node. In simple words, the Degree of a node is total number of children it has. The highest degree of a node among all the nodes in a tree is called as ' Degree of Tree ' Level In a tree data structure, the root node is said to be at Level 0 and the children of root node are at Level 1 and the children of the nodes which are at Level 1 will be at Level 2 and so on... In simple words, in a tree each step from top to bottom is called as a Level and the Level count starts with '0' and incremented by one at each level (Step). Height In a tree data structure, the total number of edges from leaf node to a particular node in the longest path is called as HEIGHT of that Node. In a tree, height of the root node is said to be height of the tree. In a tree, height of all leaf nodes is '0'.
Depth In a tree data structure, the total number of egdes from root node to a particular node is called as DEPTH of that Node. In a tree, the total number of edges from root node to a leaf node in the longest path is said to be Depth of the tree. In simple words, the highest depth of any leaf node in a tree is said to be depth of that tree. In a tree, depth of the root node is '0'. Path In a tree data structure, the sequence of Nodes and Edges from one node to another node is called as PATH between that two Nodes. Length of a Path is total number of nodes in that path. In below example the path A - B - E - J has length 4. Sub Tree In a tree data structure, each child from a node forms a subtree recursively. Every child node will form a subtree on its parent node.
2. Complete Binary Tree In a binary tree, every node can have a maximum of two children. But in strictly binary tree, every node should have exactly two children or none and in complete binary tree all the nodes must have exactly two children and at every level of complete binary tree there must be 2level^ number of nodes. For example at level 2 there must be 2^2 = 4 nodes and at level 3 there must be 2^3 = 8 nodes. - A binary tree in which every internal node has exactly two children and all leaf nodes are at same level is called Complete Binary Tree. Complete binary tree is also called as **Perfect Binary Tree
A binary tree data structure is represented using two methods. Those methods are as follows...
1. Array Representation of Binary Tree In array representation of a binary tree, we use one-dimensional array (1-D Array) to represent a binary tree. Consider the above example of a binary tree and it is represented as follows... To represent a binary tree of depth 'n' using array representation, we need one dimensional array with a maximum size of 2n + 1. 2. Linked List Representation of Binary Tree We use a double linked list to represent a binary tree. In a double linked list, every node consists of three fields. First field for storing left child address, second for storing actual data and third for storing right child address. In this linked list representation, a node has the following structure... The above example of the binary tree represented using Linked list representation is shown as follows...
2. Pre - Order Traversal ( root - leftChild - rightChild ) In Pre-Order traversal, the root node is visited before the left child and right child nodes. In this traversal, the root node is visited first, then its left child and later its right child. This pre-order traversal is applicable for every root node of all subtrees in the tree. In the above example of binary tree, first we visit root node 'A' then visit its left child 'B' which is a root for D and F. So we visit B's left child 'D' and again D is a root for I and J. So we visit D's left child 'I' which is the leftmost child. So next we go for visiting D's right child 'J'. With this we have completed root, left and right parts of node D and root, left parts of node B. Next visit B's right child 'F'. With this we have completed root and left parts of node A. So we go for A's right child 'C' which is a root node for G and H. After visiting C, we go for its left child 'G' which is a root for node K. So next we visit left of G, but it does not have left child so we go for G's right child 'K'. With this, we have completed node C's root and left parts. Next visit C's right child 'H' which is the rightmost child in the tree. So we stop the process. That means here we have visited in the order of A-B-D-I-J-F-C-G-K-H using Pre-Order Traversal. - Pre-Order Traversal for above example binary tree is A - B - D - I - J - F - C - G - K - H 3. Post - Order Traversal ( leftChild - rightChild - root ) In Post-Order traversal, the root node is visited after left child and right child. In this traversal, left child node is visited first, then its right child and then its root node. This is recursively performed until the right most node is visited. Here we have visited in the order of I - J - D - F - B - K - G - H - C - A using Post-Order Traversal. - Post-Order Traversal for above example binary tree is I - J - D - F - B - K - G - H - C – A
//Binary Tree Display using In-Order Traversals #include #include struct Node{ int data; struct Node left; struct Node right; }; struct Node root = NULL; int count = 0; struct Node insert(struct Node, int); void display(struct Node); void main(){ int choice, value; clrscr(); printf("\n----- Binary Tree -----\n"); while(1){ printf("\n***** MENU *****\n"); printf("1. Insert\n2. Display\n3. Exit"); printf("\nEnter your choice: "); scanf("%d",&choice); switch(choice){ case 1: printf("\nEnter the value to be insert: "); scanf("%d", &value); root = insert(root,value); break; case 2: display(root); break; case 3: exit(0); default: printf("\nPlease select correct operations!!!\n"); } } } struct Node* insert(struct Node *root,int value){ struct Node newNode; newNode = (struct Node)malloc(sizeof(struct Node)); newNode->data = value; if(root == NULL){ newNode->left = newNode->right = NULL; root = newNode; count++; } else{ if(count%2 != 0) root->left = insert(root->left,value); else root->right = insert(root->right,value); } return root; } // display is performed by using Inorder Traversal void display(struct Node *root) { if(root != NULL){ display(root->left); printf("%d\t",root->data); display(root->right); } }
Deletion Operation in BST In a binary search tree, the deletion operation is performed with O(log n) time complexity. Deleting a node from Binary search tree includes following three cases... Case 1: Deleting a Leaf node (A node with no children) Case 2: Deleting a node with one child Case 3: Deleting a node with two children Case 1: Deleting a leaf node We use the following steps to delete a leaf node from BST... Step 1 - Find the node to be deleted using search operation Step 2 - Delete the node using free function (If it is a leaf) and terminate the function. Case 2: Deleting a node with one child We use the following steps to delete a node with one child from BST... Step 1 - Find the node to be deleted using search operation Step 2 - If it has only one child then create a link between its parent node and child node. Step 3 - Delete the node using free function and terminate the function. Case 3: Deleting a node with two children We use the following steps to delete a node with two children from BST... Step 1 - Find the node to be deleted using search operation Step 2 - If it has two children, then find the largest node in its left subtree (OR) the smallest node in its right subtree. Step 3 - Swap both deleting node and node which is found in the above step. Step 4 - Then check whether deleting node came to case 1 or case 2 or else goto step 2 Step 5 - If it comes to case 1 , then delete using case 1 logic. Step 6- If it comes to case 2 , then delete using case 2 logic. Step 7 - Repeat the same process until the node is deleted from the tree. Ex: Construct a Binary Search Tree by inserting the following sequence of numbers... 10,12,5,4,20,8,7,15 and 13 Above elements are inserted into a Binary Search Tree as follows...
//Binary Search Tree Implementation #include #include #include struct node { int data; struct node *left; struct node *right; }; void inorder(struct node *root) { if(root) { inorder(root->left); printf(" %d",root->data); inorder(root->right); } } int main() { int n , i; struct node *p , *q , *root; printf("Enter the number of nodes to be insert: "); scanf("%d",&n); printf("\nPlease enter the numbers to be insert: "); for(i=0;idata); p->left = NULL; p->right = NULL; if(i == 0) { root = p; // root always point to the root node } else { q = root; // q is used to traverse the tree while(1) { if(p->data > q->data) { if(q->right == NULL) { q->right = p; break; } else q = q->right; } else { if(q->left == NULL) { q->left = p; break; } else q = q->left; } } } } printf("\nBinary Search Tree nodes in Inorder Traversal: "); inorder(root); printf("\n"); return 0; }
AVL tree is a height-balanced binary search tree. That means, an AVL tree is also a binary search tree but it is a balanced tree. A binary tree is said to be balanced if, the difference between the heights of left and right subtrees of every node in the tree is either -1, 0 or +1. In other words, a binary tree is said to be balanced if the height of left and right children of every node differ by either -1, 0 or +1. In an AVL tree, every node maintains an extra information known as balance factor. The AVL tree was introduced in the year 1962 by G.M. Adelson-Velsky and E.M. Landis. An AVL tree is defined as follows...
Operations on an AVL Tree The following operations are performed on AVL tree...
