Study Notes
Tree Representation
- Trees are hierarchical structures, often used to represent file systems or organizational structures.
- Nodes: Represent individual elements within the tree.
- Root: The top node.
- Branch: The connection between a parent node and its children.
- Child Nodes: The successors of a node.
- Parent Node: The predecessor of a node.
- Binary tree: A tree with at most two child nodes per node.
- Leaf Node: A node without children.
- Internal Node: A node with at least one child.
- Subtree: A smaller tree within a larger tree.
- Level: The distance of a node from the root.
- Depth: The highest level of a tree.
- Degree: The number of children a node has.
Tree Traversal
- Visiting all nodes in the tree in a specific order.
- Preorder: Root is visited first, then left subtree, then right subtree.
- Postorder: Left subtree is visited first, then right subtree, then root.
- Inorder: Left subtree is visited first, then root, then right subtree.
- Breadth-First (Level Order): Nodes are visited level by level, starting from the root and proceeding to the left subtree, right subtree and so forth.
Other Tree Functionality
- getParent(): Returns the parent of a node.
- isNodeSibling(): Returns True if two nodes are siblings.
- getPreviousSibling(): Returns the previous sibling in the parent's children array.
- getNextSibling(): Returns the next sibling in the parent's children array.
- getSiblingCount(): Returns the number of siblings a node has.
- isLeaf(): Returns True if a node has no children.
