It is also possible to interpret a binary tree as an undirected, rather than directed graph, in which case a binary tree is an ordered, rooted tree. [5] Some authors use rooted binary tree instead of binary tree to emphasize the fact that the tree is rooted, but as defined above, a binary tree is always rooted.
The flip graphs of a pentagon and a hexagon, corresponding to rotations of three-node and four-node binary trees. Given a family of triangulations of some geometric object, a flip is an operation that transforms one triangulation to another by removing an edge between two triangles and adding the opposite diagonal to the resulting quadrilateral.
In graph theory, a tree is an undirected graph in which any two vertices are connected by exactly one path, or equivalently a connected acyclic undirected graph. [1] A forest is an undirected graph in which any two vertices are connected by at most one path, or equivalently an acyclic undirected graph, or equivalently a disjoint union of trees.
An example of a m-ary tree with m=5. In graph theory, an m-ary tree (for nonnegative integers m) (also known as n-ary, k-ary or k-way tree) is an arborescence (or, for some authors, an ordered tree) [1] [2] in which each node has no more than m children. A binary tree is an important case where m = 2; similarly, a ternary tree is one where m = 3.
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.
Binary tree generated in Graphviz from a DOT description by an online Huffman Tree generator. The DOT language defines a graph, but does not provide facilities for rendering the graph. There are several programs that can be used to render, view, and manipulate graphs in the DOT language:
Unrooted binary trees are also used to define branch-decompositions of graphs, by forming an unrooted binary tree whose leaves represent the edges of the given graph. That is, a branch-decomposition may be viewed as a hierarchical clustering of the edges of the graph.
The left figure below shows a binary decision tree (the reduction rules are not applied), and a truth table, each representing the function (,,).In the tree on the left, the value of the function can be determined for a given variable assignment by following a path down the graph to a terminal.
