*The numbers in the nodes are just addresses or indexes but not values.
Problem 2 (8 pts): Structural Induction In a binary tree, a full node is a node...
A binary tree node is called full if the node contains 2 children. Use a proof by induction to prove that in any binary tree, the number of leaves in the tree is equal to the number of full nodes plus one. (Hint: your inductive step should consider two cases: the k+1 node becomes the only child of a node that was previously a leaf; and the k+1 node becomes the second child of a node that previously only had...
Refer to the definition of Full Binary Tree from the notes. For a Full Binary Tree T, we use n(T), h(T), i(T) and l(T) to refer to number of nodes, height, number of internal nodes (non-leaf nodes) and number of leaves respectively. Note that the height of a tree with single node is 1 (not zero). Using structural induction, prove the following: (a) For every Full Binary Tree T, n(T) greaterthanorequalto h(T). (b) For every Full Binary Tree T, i(T)...
Recall from Assignment 2 the definition of a binary tree data structure: either an empty tree, or a node with two children that are trees. Let T(n) denote the number of binary trees with n nodes. For example T(3) 5 because there are five binary trees with three nodes: (a) Using the recursive definition of a binary tree structure, or otherwise, derive a recurrence equation for T(n). (8 marks) A full binary tree is a non-empty binary tree where every...
Trees and Heaps 1. Show that the maximum number of nodes in a binary tree of height h is 2h+1 − 1. 2. A full node is a node with two children. Prove that the number of full nodes plus one is equal to the number of leaves in a nonempty binary tree. 3. What is the minimum number of nodes in an AVL tree of height 15? 4. Show the result of inserting 14, 12, 18, 20, 27, 16,...
(2 points) A full binary tree has a start node, internal nodes, and leaf nodes. The number of leaf nodes of this binary tree is 256. a) What is the height of the tree? b) How many internal nodes are in this tree?
Consider a standard binary tree with n nodes, where every node has a pointer to two children, either of which may be null. In this tree, are there more null child pointers, or non-null child pointers? Prove your answer. Remember that n could be any integer greater than zero, so we're not just talking about one particular tree for some fixed n, but ANY tree.
2. A complete binary tree is defined inductively as follows. A complete binary tree of height 0 consists of 1 node which is the root. A complete binary tree of height h +1 consists of two complete binary trees of height h whose roots are connected to a new root. Let T be a complete binary tree of height h. Prove that the number of leaves of the tree is 2" and the size of the tree (number of nodes...
PROMPT: Consider a binary tree (not necessarily a binary search tree) with node structure. QUESTION: Prove that findMax works by mathematical induction. struct Node int val; struct Node * left; struct Node* right; The following function findMax returns the largest value 'val in the tree; and returns -1 if the tree is empty. You may assume that all the values 'val' in the tree are nonnegative. struct Node * findMax(struct Node root) if (rootNULL) return -1; maxval = root->val; maxval...
. [25 pts.] Tree node with largest value children. Consider a complete ternary tree where each node apart from the leaves has exactly 3 children and is associated with a numeric key k. a [15 pts.] Write the pseudo-code of a procedure that returns the node whose children have the largest sum of keys, i.e. the score of a node is the sum of its children key values. Note that leaves would not be considered as they do not have...

Select all choices that apply! Select one or more: a. For each node in the tree, all paths from that node to any leaf nodes contain...
