Tree

What is tree?

A tree data structure can be defined recursively (locally) as a collection of nodes (starting at a root node), where each node is a data structure consisting of a value, together with a list of references to nodes (the "children"), with the constraints that no reference is duplicated, and none points to the root.

A data structure made up of nodes or vertices and directed edges without having any cycle.

When to Use Tree

  • Simulating a hierarchical tree structure
    • File System, HTML, Compiler Pattern Recognition, etc.
  • Simulating search space for solutions
    • DFS, BFS, Decision Tree, etc.
  • Performance Improvement
    • Red Black Tree, AVL, B/B+ Tree, etc.

Terminologies

  • Node
    • Root, Leaf (external node)
  • Relations
    • Parent, Child

Node

The depth of a node is the number of edges from the node to the tree's root node.
A root node will have a depth of 0.

The height of a node is the number of edges on the longest path from the node to a leaf.
A leaf node will have a height of 0.

Tree

The height of a tree would be the height of its root node,
or equivalently, the depth of its deepest node.

Note that depth doesn't make sense for a tree.

height depth level of a tree

what is the max number of nodes a tree can have if the height of the tree is h?

Binary Tree

  • Each node has at most two children.
    • left child, right child.
    • left subtree, right subtree

Types of Binary Tree

  • Complete Binary Tree
    • In which every level, except possibly the last, is completely filled, and all nodes are as far left as possible.
    • High Performance
  • ​Full Binary Tree
  • Perfect Binary Tree

Properties of Binary Tree

  • At Level i, at most 2^i nodes
  • A tree with height k, at most ceil(2^(k+1))-1 nodes
  • Complete binary tree
    • With n nodes, the height will be 
    • number nodes from the root, then for node k, its children would be 2*k+1 and 2*k + 2
log_2(n+1) - 1

Binary Tree in Code

class TreeNode {
    int val;
    TreeNode left;
    TreeNode right;
    
    public TreeNode(int val_) {
        val = val_;
        left = null;
        right = null;
    }
}

Binary Tree in Code

Traversal of a Binary Tree

Traversal is the basic operation for almost all binary tree problems.

  • Breadth First Search
    • LevelOrder
  • Depth First Search
    • PreOrder, InOrder, PostOrder
  • BFS: search level by level (increasing distance).
  • DFS: search as far as possible for one direction.

How to traverse (DFS)?

Tree is a recursive data structure.

  • It's natural and straightforward to use recursion on such data structures (like LinkedList)
public void traverse(ListNode head) {
    visit(head);
    traverse(head.next);
}
public void traverse(TreeNode root) {
    visit(root);
    traverse(root.left);
    traverse(root.right);
}

PreOrder Traversal

public void preorder(TreeNode root) {  
    if(root != null) {  
        // Visit the node by printing the node data    
        System.out.printf("%d ",root.val);  
        preorder(root.left);  
        preorder(root.right);  
    }  
}

InOrder Traversal

public void inorder(TreeNode root) {  
    if(root != null) {  
        inorder(root.left);  
        System.out.printf("%d ",root.val);  
        inorder(root.right);  
    }  
}

PostOrder Traversal

public void postorder(TreeNode root) {  
    if(root != null) {    
        postorder(root.left);  
        postorder(root.right);
        System.out.printf("%d ",root.val);    
    }  
}

How to traverse (BFS)?

We can't visit each node once we meet them. Need to store some node for future visit.

  • Queue will be needed to keep the order

LevelOrder Traversal

public void levelorder(TreeNode root) {  // BFS
    Queue<TreeNode> queue = new LinkedList<>();
    queue.offer(root);

    while (!queue.isEmpty()) {
        TreeNode top = queue.pop();
        System.out.printf("%d ", top.val);
        if (top.left != null) {
            queue.offer(top.left);
        }
        if (top.right != null) {
            queue.offer(top.right);
        }
    }
    return;
}

LevelOrder Traversal

public void levelorder(TreeNode root) {  // BFS
    Queue<TreeNode> queue = new LinkedList<>();
    queue.offer(root);
    int level = 0;
    while (!queue.isEmpty()) {
        System.out.printf("Level %d\n", level++);
        Queue<TreeNode> queue2 = new LinkedList<>();
        while (!queue.isEmpty()) {
            TreeNode top = queue.poll();
            System.out.printf("%d ", top.val);
            if (top.left != null) queue2.offer(top.left);
            if (top.right != null) queue2.offer(top.right);
        }
        queue = queue2;
    }
}

LevelOrder Traversal

public void levelorder(TreeNode root) {  // BFS
    Queue<TreeNode> queue = new LinkedList<>();
    queue.offer(root);

    int level = 0;
    while (!queue.isEmpty()) {
        TreeNode top = queue.poll();
        if (top == null) {
            System.out.printf("----Level %d\n", level++);
            queue.offer(null);
        } else {
            System.out.printf("%d ", top.val);
            if (top.left != null) queue.offer(top.left);
            if (top.right != null) queue.offer(top.right);
        }
    }
}

public void levelorder(TreeNode root) {  // BFS
    Queue<TreeNode> queue = new LinkedList<>();
    queue.offer(root);
    int level = 0;
    int curLevelNum = 1;
    while (!queue.isEmpty()) {
        System.out.printf("Level %d\n", level++);
        int nextLevelNum = 0;
        while (curLevelNum-- != 0) {
            TreeNode top = queue.poll();
            System.out.printf("%d ", top.val);
            if (top.left != null) {
                queue.offer(top.left);
                nextLevelNum++;
            }

Binary Search Tree (*)

We know the search time is highly related to the height of the tree. If we keep add and remove elements in the tree, the tree will become unbalanced.

So we have Red-black tree and AVL tree, they could use rotation and reconstruct to make the tree balance.

Graph

What is graph?

A graph data structure consists of a finite (and possibly mutable) set of vertices or nodes or points, together with a set of unordered pairs of these vertices for an undirected graph or a set of ordered pairs for a directed graph.

These pairs are known as edges, arcs, or lines for an undirected graph and as arrows, directed edges, directed arcs, or directed lines for a directed graph.

Types of Graph

  • Undirected graph
  • Directed graph

Types of Graph

  • Directed graph
    • Directed Acylic Graph

Types of Graph

  • Directed graph
    • Directed Acylic Graph
      • DFS
      • Topological Sort

Graph Representation

  • GraphNode
    • There is no root in the graph
    • Need multiple nodes to represent a graph

class GraphNode {

    int val;

    List<GraphNode> neighbors;

}

Graph Representation

  • Adjacent matrices
    • |V| vertices, then |V|*|V| matrix of 0s and 1s for the graph.

Graph Representation

  • Adjacent lists
    • |V| vertices, then |V| arraylist, each containing the adjacent vertices. 
    • 2|E| space for undirected, and |E| space for directed.

Graph Traversal

  • DFS, BFS
    • Similar to Tree Traversal
    • There could be cycles in graph, so need to mark nodes visited after visiting. Different from tree here.
      • 3 states: not visited, visiting, visited
