Think about the DELETE(x) operation for a Binary Search Tree with no duplicate elements.
Define the predecessor of a node x as the node whose value immediately precedes x if you sort all the node values in the tree smallest to largest. Define the successor of a node x similarly -- the one "just after" x.
If x has a left child, is the predecessor of x always in x's left sub-tree? If x has a right child, is the successor to x always in x's right sub-tree?
Write a few sentences explaining your reasoning
Q; Define the predecessor of a node x as the node whose value immediately precedes x if you sort all the node values in the tree smallest to largest. Define the successor of a node x similarly -- the one "just after" x.
Ans:
Predecessor and Successor in BST:
After doing inorder traversal of BST we get the sorted output(Asc. order). The neighbor for a given node is called predecessor(the node lies behind of given node) and successor(the node lies ahead of given node).
The predecessor is always the smallest node in the left subtree of a given node.
The successor is always the largest node in the right subtree of a given node.
For example
inorder traversal of BST is 8,10,12,15,16,20,25
if we will find predecessor and successor of 15 then, predecessor of 15 is 12 and successor is 16. it can be easily seen from the inorder traversal of BST.
8 has no predecessor and 25 has no sucessor.

Q: If x has a left child, is the predecessor of x always in x's left sub-tree? If x has a right child, is the successor to x always in x's right sub-tree?
Ans: yes, the predecessor for given node x will always lie in the x's left sub-tree and successor for a given node x will always lie in the x's right sub-tree.
Reason: predecessor is a value which is less than x and successor is a value which is greater than x. we know in BST, all nodes less than x will be in the left subtree and all nodes greater than x will be in the right subtree.

AVL Tree is a self-balancing Binary Search Tree (BST) where the difference between heights of left and right subtrees cannot be more than one for all nodes. Perform insert and delete simulation for each given number below by using the concept of AVL Tree! a. INSERT: +300, +500, +700, +600, +650, +550, +525, +510, +580, +200, +565, +800 b. DELETE: -525, -500, -510, -650, -700 *you are obligated to use predecessor (left subtree's right-most child) for the replacement process
C++, data structure using :binarySearchTree Deleting an element from a binary search tree is far more complicated than inserting an element in a binary search tree. An analysis of binary search tree deletion finds 4 cases: Case 1: The node to be deleted has no left and right subtrees Case 2: The node to be deleted has no left subtree but does have a right subtree. Case 3: The node to be deleted has no right subtee but does have...
IN JAVA 2 A Binary Search Tree The goal of this lab is to gain familiarity with simple binary search trees. 1. Begin this lab by implementing a simple class that represents a "node” in a binary search tree, as follows. public class MyTreeNode<t extends Comparable<T>> { public T data; public MyTreeNode<T> leftchild; public MyTreeNode<T> rightChild; public MyTreeNode<T> parent; 2. Have the second member of your pair type in the code for the simple binary search tree interface. public interface...
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...
In C++ I need the printRange function, and the main.cpp program. Thanks. (Binary search tree) Write a function printRange that takes as input a binary search tree t and two keys, k1 and k2, which are ordered so that k1 < k2, and print all elements x in the tree such that k1 <= x <= k2. You can add this function in BinarySearchTree.h (click the link) that we used in the lecture and lab 7. public: void printRange(int k1,...

Hello. I have written the following function to remove a value from a Binary Search Tree using resources my professors gave and stuff I found online. The problem is I don't know how it works and I need to know how it works to finish the rest of the project. public boolean remove(T value){ if(value == null) return false; class RemoveBSTObj{ private boolean found = false; private Node removeBST(Node root, T value){ if(root == null) return root; //IF there is...
