  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. Binary tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_tree

    To define a binary tree, the possibility that only one of the children may be empty must be acknowledged. An artifact, which in some textbooks is called an extended binary tree, is needed for that purpose. An extended binary tree is thus recursively defined as: [11] the empty set is an extended binary tree

  4. k-way merge algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-way_merge_algorithm

    A tournament tree can be represented as a balanced binary tree by adding sentinels to the input lists (i.e. adding a member to the end of each list with a value of infinity) and by adding null lists (comprising only a sentinel) until the number of lists is a power of two. The balanced tree can be stored in a single array.

    They also gave bounds for the same. Hurkens et al. gave an exact algorithm to sort binary and ternary strings. Chitturi [8] (2011) proved that the complexity of transforming a compatible signed string into another with the minimum number of signed prefix reversals—the burnt pancake problem on strings—is NP-complete.

  6. Optimal binary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_binary_search_tree

    The tree with the minimal weighted path length is, by definition, statically optimal. But weighted path lengths have an interesting property. Let E be the weighted path length of a binary tree, E L be the weighted path length of its left subtree, and E R be the weighted path length of its right subtree. Also let W be the sum of all the ...

  7. Integer overflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_overflow

    Integer overflow can be demonstrated through an odometer overflowing, a mechanical version of the phenomenon. All digits are set to the maximum 9 and the next increment of the white digit causes a cascade of carry-over additions setting all digits to 0, but there is no higher digit (1,000,000s digit) to change to a 1, so the counter resets to zero.

  8. 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.

  9. Treap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treap

    To search for a given key value, apply a standard binary search algorithm in a binary search tree, ignoring the priorities. To insert a new key x into the treap, generate a random priority y for x. Binary search for x in the tree, and create a new node at the leaf position where the binary search determines a node for x should exist.
