    Study Notes

    Tree Data Structure

    • 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.

    Node Structure

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

    Tree Edges

    • Each edge in a tree represents a parent-child relationship between two nodes.

    Leaf Node

    • A leaf node is a node in a tree that has no child nodes.

    Searching Techniques

    • 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.
