Operations on a binary search tree

• SEARCH(S, k)• MINIMUM(S)• MAXIMUM(S)• SUCCESSOR(S, x)• PREDECESSOR(S, x)• INSERT(S, x)• DELETE(S, x)

What is a binary search tree?

• A binary tree• Binary-search-tree property– For each node, all the nodes in its left sub tree is

smaller than to or equal to this node; all the nodes in its right sub tree is larger than or equal to this node

What the difference between “binary search tree” and a “max-heap”?

Not a complete binary tree

With a different tree property

Elements in a binary search tree

• Can we use an array to represent a binary search tree?– No– So some tree structure information has to be

stored

Elements in a binary search tree

• binary search tree node {– Key– Satellite data– Left node (left)– Right node (right)– Parent node (p)}

Searching in a binary search tree

TREE-SEARCH• Input: root pointer (x), key (k)• Output: a element whose key is the same as

the input key; NIL if no element has the input key

1. if(x==NIL or x.key==k) return x;2. if(k<x.key) return TREE-SEARCH(x.left, k);3. Return TREE-SEARCH(x.right, k);

The minima of the tree rooted at x is: the minima of x.left if x.left is not NIL; x if x.left is NIL

TREE-MINIMUM( x ) //the recursive one

1. if (x.left==NIL) return x;2. return TREE-MINIMUM(x.left);

0. if(x==NIL) return NIL;

It has some cost, so if x is guaranteed not NIL we can remove it

How to build a binary search tree?

• By insertion• When it is done it randomly, the expected

height is O(lgn)• What is the worst case?– There is only 1 leaf

• How to avoid the worst case?– Randomly insert– Variations of binary search tree like RBT
