# Trees
|
|
|
|
A general tree is a data structure where each node can have zero or more children. Each node has exactly one parent except for the root that has no parent.
|
|
|
|
```cpp
|
|
std::vector<TreeNode*> stack;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Definition
|
|
|
|
A tree T is defined by a root r and a (possibly empty) list of subtrees $T^1, T^2, ..., T^n$ where $n \geq 0$. Each subtree is itself a general tree according to the same definition.

Trees are traversed starting at the root. Traversals are often recursive because of the recursive nature of trees. It is **bad** practice to expose a reference of any node externally. However, in this lab you have the following publicly exposed:
|
|
|
|
- `TreeNode* root`
|
|
- `void add Child()`
|
|
- `TreeNode* getRoot()`
|
|
- `TreeNode* findNode()`
|
|
- `collection(TreeNode*) getChildren()`
|
|

Python-like pseudocode for Level-Order Traversal:
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
LOT(root):
|
|
# q is a queue of TreeNode references
|
|
q;
|
|
while q is not empty:
|
|
node = q.dequeue()
|
|
visit node
|
|
for each child of ode:
|
|
q.enqueue(child)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
LOT_ReportLevels(root):
|
|
# result is a list of lists of TreeNode references
|
|
result;
|
|
# q is a queue of TreeNode refs
|
|
q;
|
|
while q is not empty:
|
|
# level is a list of TreeNode references
|
|
level;
|
|
# levelSize is q.size(?)
|
|
# incomplete
|
|
```
