  2. Tree traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_traversal

    In computer science, tree traversal (also known as tree search and walking the tree) is a form of graph traversal and refers to the process of visiting (e.g. retrieving, updating, or deleting) each node in a tree data structure, exactly once. Such traversals are classified by the order in which the nodes are visited.

  3. Depth-first search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth-first_search

    Depth-first search (DFS) is an algorithm for traversing or searching tree or graph data structures. The algorithm starts at the root node (selecting some arbitrary node as the root node in the case of a graph) and explores as far as possible along each branch before backtracking.

  4. Tree (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_(abstract_data_type)

    Search trees store data in a way that makes an efficient search algorithm possible via tree traversal. A binary search tree is a type of binary tree; Representing sorted lists of data; Computer-generated imagery: Space partitioning, including binary space partitioning; Digital compositing; Storing Barnes–Hut trees used to simulate galaxies ...

  5. Trie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trie

    Patricia trees are a particular implementation of the compressed binary trie that uses the binary encoding of the string keys in its representation. [23] [15]: 140 Every node in a Patricia tree contains an index, known as a "skip number", that stores the node's branching index to avoid empty subtrees during traversal.

  6. Breadth-first search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breadth-first_search

    However, in the application of graph traversal methods in artificial intelligence the input may be an implicit representation of an infinite graph. In this context, a search method is described as being complete if it is guaranteed to find a goal state if one exists. Breadth-first search is complete, but depth-first search is not.

  7. Binary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search_tree

    Fig. 1: A binary search tree of size 9 and depth 3, with 8 at the root. In computer science, a binary search tree (BST), also called an ordered or sorted binary tree, is a rooted binary tree data structure with the key of each internal node being greater than all the keys in the respective node's left subtree and less than the ones in its right subtree.

  8. Graph traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_traversal

    A universal traversal sequence is a sequence of instructions comprising a graph traversal for any regular graph with a set number of vertices and for any starting vertex. A probabilistic proof was used by Aleliunas et al. to show that there exists a universal traversal sequence with number of instructions proportional to O ( n 5 ) for any ...

  9. Threaded binary tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_binary_tree

    "A binary tree is threaded by making all right child pointers that would normally be null point to the in-order successor of the node (if it exists), and all left child pointers that would normally be null point to the in-order predecessor of the node." [1] This assumes the traversal order is the same as in-order traversal of the tree. However ...
