Study Notes

A tree is a hierarchical data structure consisting of nodes, where each node has a value and zero or more child nodes.
Each node in a tree stores a value and references to its child nodes.

The 2nd port of a node in a tree typically stores a reference to the left child node.

The purpose of searching techniques in data structures is to find a specific element or value within a data structure.

Linear Search is a search algorithm that involves checking each item in sequence until a match is found.
If the desired item is not found in the data structure, Linear Search will continue until the end of the data structure is reached.
The UB variable in the Linear Search algorithm is typically used to keep track of the upper bound or the end of the search space.

The main characteristic of the Binary Search algorithm is that it searches for an element by repeatedly dividing the search space in half until the desired element is found.
