  2. 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.

  3. Huffman coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huffman_coding

    Huffman tree generated from the exact frequencies of the text "this is an example of a huffman tree". Encoding the sentence with this code requires 135 (or 147) bits, as opposed to 288 (or 180) bits if 36 characters of 8 (or 5) bits were used (This assumes that the code tree structure is known to the decoder and thus does not need to be counted as part of the transmitted information).

  4. Search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_tree

    A ternary search tree is a type of tree that can have 3 nodes: a low child, an equal child, and a high child. Each node stores a single character and the tree itself is ordered the same way a binary search tree is, with the exception of a possible third node.

  5. 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.

  7. Canonical Huffman code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_Huffman_code

    In order for a symbol code scheme such as the Huffman code to be decompressed, the same model that the encoding algorithm used to compress the source data must be provided to the decoding algorithm so that it can use it to decompress the encoded data. In standard Huffman coding this model takes the form of a tree of variable-length codes, with ...

  8. Order statistic tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_statistic_tree

    To turn a regular search tree into an order statistic tree, the nodes of the tree need to store one additional value, which is the size of the subtree rooted at that node (i.e., the number of nodes below it). All operations that modify the tree must adjust this information to preserve the invariant that size[x] = size[left[x]] + size[right[x]] + 1

  9. Tree sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_sort

    A tree sort is a sort algorithm that builds a binary search tree from the elements to be sorted, and then traverses the tree so that the elements come out in sorted order. [1] Its typical use is sorting elements online : after each insertion, the set of elements seen so far is available in sorted order.
