At depth n, the height of the tree, all nodes are as far left as possibleWhere would the next node goCS 307 Fundamentals of Computer Science10Where would the next node goto maintain a complete tree?Perfect Binary Treeperfect binary tree: a binary tree with all leaf nodes at the same depth. All internal nodes have exactly two children.a perfect binary tree has the maximum number of nodes for a given heighta perfect binary tree has 2(n+1)-1 nodes a pe ec b a y ee asodeswhere n is the height of a tree– height = 0 -> 1 node– height = 1 -> 3 nodes– height = 2 -> 7 nodes–height=3->15 nodesCS 307 Fundamentals of Computer Science11height 3 15 nodesA Binary Node classbli l BN dpublic class BNode{ private Object myData;private BNode myLeft;itBNd Rihtprivate BNode myRight;public BNode();bli d ( bj d d l fpublic BNode(Object data, BNode left, BNode right)public Object getData()ipublic BNode getLeft()public BNode getRight()public void setData(Object data)public void setLeft(BNode left)public void setRight(BNode right)CS 307 Fundamentals of Computer Science12}Binary Tree TraversalsMlih illdfbiMany algorithms require all nodes of a binary tree be visited and the contents of each node processedprocessed.There are 4 traditional types of traversalspreorder traversal: process the root then process all sub–preorder traversal: process the root, then process all sub trees (left to right)– in order traversal: process the left sub tree, process the root, process the right sub tree– post order traversal: process the left sub tree, process the right sub tree then process the rootthe right sub tree, then process the root– level order traversal: starting from the root of a tree, process all nodes at the same depth from left to right, CS 307 Fundamentals of Computer Science13ppgthen proceed to the nodes at the next depth.Results of TraversalsTo determine the results of a traversal on a given tree draw a path around the tree.– start on the left side of the root and trace around the tree. The path should stay close to the tree.12pre order: process when pass down left side of node12 49 13 5 4249 4212 49 13 5 42in order: process when passunderneath node51313 49 5 12 42post order: process when pass up right side of nodeCS 307 Fundamentals of Computer Science14pass up right side of node13 5 49 42 12 Tree TraversalsADCF G H JKLCS 307 Fundamentals of Computer Science15Attendance Question 2What is a the result of a post order traversal of the tree on the previous slide?A.
