Data structures

Please use the following data structures and types for binary trees. Don’t forget to include them in your header file.

Basic Binary Tree

/**
 * struct binary_tree_s - Binary tree node
 *
 * @n: Integer stored in the node
 * @parent: Pointer to the parent node
 * @left: Pointer to the left child node
 * @right: Pointer to the right child node
 */
struct binary_tree_s
{
    int n;
    struct binary_tree_s *parent;
    struct binary_tree_s *left;
    struct binary_tree_s *right;
};

typedef struct binary_tree_s binary_tree_t;

Binary Search Tree

typedef struct binary_tree_s bst_t;

AVL Tree

typedef struct binary_tree_s avl_t;

Max Binary Heap

typedef struct binary_tree_s heap_t;

Note: For tasks 0 to 23 (included), you have to deal with simple binary trees. They are not BSTs, thus they don’t follow any kind of rule.

Print function

To match the examples in the tasks, you are given this function

This function is used only for visualization purposes. You don’t have to push it to your repo. It may not be used during the correction

Tasks

0. New node

Write a function that creates a binary tree node

  • Prototype: binary_tree_t *binary_tree_node(binary_tree_t *parent, int value);
  • Where parent is a pointer to the parent node of the node to create
  • And value is the value to put in the new node
  • When created, a node does not have any child
  • Your function must return a pointer to the new node, or NULL on failure
