Terminology
Use trees to represent relationships
Trees are hierarchical in nature
“Parent-child” relationship exists between nodes in tree.
Generalized to ancestor and descendant
Lines between the nodes are called edges
A subtree in a tree is any node in the tree together with all of its descendants

Kinds of Trees
General Tree
Set T of one or more nodes such that T is partitioned into disjoint subsets
A single node r , the root
Sets that are general trees, called subtrees of r

Kinds of Trees
n -ary tree
set T of nodes that is either empty or partitioned into disjoint subsets:
A single node r , the root
n possibly empty sets that are n -ary subtrees of r

Kinds of Trees
Binary tree
Set T of nodes that is either empty or partitioned into disjoint subsets
Single node r , the root
Two possibly empty sets that are binary trees, called left and right subtrees of r

Binary Search Tree
For each node n, a binary search tree satisfies the following three properties:
n ’s value is greater than all values in its left subtree T L .
n ’s value is less than all values in its right subtree T R .
Both T L and T R are binary search trees.

The Height of Trees
Definition of the level of a node n :
If n is the root of T , it is at level 1.
If n is not the root of T , its level is 1 greater than the level of its parent.
Height of a tree T in terms of the levels of its nodes
If T is empty, its height is 0.
If T is not empty, its height is equal to the maximum level of its nodes.

Full, Complete, and Balanced Binary Trees
Definition of a full binary tree
If T is empty, T is a full binary tree of height 0.
If T is not empty and has height h > 0, T is a full binary tree if its root’s subtrees are both full binary trees of height h – 1.

The Maximum and Minimum Heights of a Binary Tree
The maximum height of an n -node binary tree is n .

Facts about Full Binary Trees
A full binary tree of height h ≥ 0 has 2 h – 1 nodes.
You cannot add nodes to a full binary tree without increasing its height.
The maximum number of nodes that a binary tree of height h can have is 2 h – 1.
The minimum height of a binary tree with n nodes is [log 2 ( n + 1)]
