Exercises

For each tree shown in Figure show the order in which the nodes are visited during the following tree traversals:
1. preorder traversal,
2. inorder traversal (if defined),
3. postorder traversal, and
4. breadth-first traversal.
Figure: Sample trees for Exercise .
Write a visitor that prints the nodes of a general tree in the format of Equation .
Derive an expression for the total space needed to represent a tree of n internal nodes using each of the following classes:
1. GeneralTree introduced in Program ,
2. NaryTree introduced in Program , and
3. BinaryTree introduced in Program .
A full node in a binary tree is a node with two non-empty subtrees. Let l be the number of leaf nodes in a binary tree. Show that the number of full nodes is l-1.
The generic depthFirstTraversal method defined in Program is a recursive method. Write a non-recursive depth-first traversal method that has exactly the same effect as the recursive version.
Program defines a visitor that prints using infix notation the expression represented by an expression tree. Write a visitor that prints the same expression in prefix notation with the following format:
Repeat Exercise , but this time write a visitor that the expression in postfix notation with the following format:
The visitor defined in Program prints many redundant parentheses because it does not take into consideration the precedence of the operators. Rewrite the visitor so that it prints

rather than
Consider postfix expressions involving only binary operators. Show that if such an expression contains n symbols, it always has (n-1)/2 operators and (n+1)/2 operands.
Prove Theorem .
Generalize Theorem so that it applies to N-ary trees.
Consider two binary trees, and and the relation given by

If , the trees are said to be isomorphic . Devise an algorithm to test whether two binary trees are isomorphic. What is the running time of your algorithm?
