Binary trees

In this project we will learn:

  • What is a binary tree
  • What is the difference between a binary tree and a Binary Search Tree
  • What is the possible gain in terms of time complexity compared to linked lists
  • What are the depth, the height, the size of a binary tree
  • What are the different traversal methods to go through a binary tree
  • What is a complete, a full, a perfect, a balanced binary tree

Data structures

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

/**
 * 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;
