  2. Tree traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_traversal

    Depending on the problem at hand, pre-order, post-order, and especially one of the number of subtrees − 1 in-order operations may be optional. Also, in practice more than one of pre-order, post-order, and in-order operations may be required. For example, when inserting into a ternary tree, a pre-order operation is performed by comparing items.

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

    A walk in which each parent node is traversed before its children is called a pre-order walk; a walk in which the children are traversed before their respective parents are traversed is called a post-order walk; a walk in which a node's left subtree, then the node itself, and finally its right subtree are traversed is called an in-order traversal.

  4. Depth-first search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth-first_search

    It is also possible to use depth-first search to linearly order the vertices of a graph or tree. There are four possible ways of doing this: A preordering is a list of the vertices in the order that they were first visited by the depth-first search algorithm. This is a compact and natural way of describing the progress of the search, as was ...

  5. Binary tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_tree

    In pre-order, we always visit the current node; next, we recursively traverse the current node's left subtree, and then we recursively traverse the current node's right subtree. The pre-order traversal is a topologically sorted one, because a parent node is processed before any of its child nodes is done.

  6. Binary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search_tree

    A BST can be traversed through three basic algorithms: inorder, preorder, and postorder tree walks. [10]: 287 Inorder tree walk: Nodes from the left subtree get visited first, followed by the root node and right subtree. Such a traversal visits all the nodes in the order of non-decreasing key sequence.

  7. 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 ...

  8. m-ary tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-ary_tree

    The pre-order traversal goes to parent, left subtree and the right subtree, and for traversing post-order it goes by left subtree, right subtree, and parent node. For traversing in-order, since there are more than two children per node for m > 2, one must define the notion of left and right subtrees. One common method to establish left/right ...
