In computer science, a tree is a widely used abstract data type that represents a hierarchical tree structure with a set of connected nodes. Each node in the tree can be connected to many children (depending on the type of tree), but must be connected to exactly one parent, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] except for the root node, which has no parent (i.e., the ...
A min-max heap is a complete binary tree containing alternating min (or even) and max (or odd) levels. Even levels are for example 0, 2, 4, etc, and odd levels are respectively 1, 3, 5, etc. We assume in the next points that the root element is at the first level, i.e., 0. Example of Min-max heap
For example, the ordered tree on the left and the binary tree on the right correspond: An example of converting an n-ary tree to a binary tree. In the pictured binary tree, the black, left, edges represent first child, while the blue, right, edges represent next sibling. This representation is called a left-child right-sibling binary tree.
A link/cut tree is a data structure for representing a forest, a set of rooted trees, and offers the following operations: Add a tree consisting of a single node to the forest. Given a node in one of the trees, disconnect it (and its subtree) from the tree of which it is part. Attach a node to another node as its child.
A skew heap (or self-adjusting heap) is a heap data structure implemented as a binary tree. Skew heaps are advantageous because of their ability to merge more quickly than binary heaps. In contrast with binary heaps, there are no structural constraints, so there is no guarantee that the height of the tree is logarithmic. Only two conditions ...
An abstract syntax tree (AST) is a data structure used in computer science to represent the structure of a program or code snippet. It is a tree representation of the abstract syntactic structure of text (often source code) written in a formal language. Each node of the tree denotes a construct occurring in the text. It is sometimes called just ...
Example of a binary max-heap with node keys being integers between 1 and 100. In computer science, a heap is a tree-based data structure that satisfies the heap property: In a max heap, for any given node C, if P is the parent node of C, then the key (the value) of P is greater than or equal to the key of C.
In computer science, a 2–3 tree is a tree data structure, where every node with children (internal node) has either two children (2-node) and one data element or three children (3-node) and two data elements. A 2–3 tree is a B-tree of order 3. [1] Nodes on the outside of the tree have no children and one or two data elements. [2] [3] 2–3 ...
