    Study Notes

    Tree Data Structure

    • The root node of a tree is the top-most node in the hierarchy.

    Characteristics of Trees

    • A key characteristic of a tree data structure is that it is a non-linear data structure.

    Binary Trees

    • In a binary tree, each parent node can have a maximum of two children.
    • A binary tree is a type of tree that limits the number of children for each parent to at most two.

    Tree Traversal

    • Recursion is commonly used in tree traversal to traverse the tree.
    • The purpose of recursion in tree traversal is to traverse the tree.

    Trees vs. Linear Data Structures

    • Trees are different from linear data structures because they are non-linear.
