Question

HI i did this code with help of Marc Gravell in

Why can't I find _left and _right in BinarySearchTree?
&
How do I correct an implicit conversion error in BST C# Code?

, its Binary search tree , but now I'm having logical error the results coming are wrong the output of my code is the following:

2
3
5
6
10
17
------------------------------------------------
17
2
------------------------------------------------
3                 
6
Press any key to continue . . .

the last two number must give the total of inserted elements 6 but its showing 9

and but the way How can i get the height of the tree ?!

Thanx in advance and special thanx to Marc Gravell .

Was it helpful?

Solution

If what you mean in CountNodes is to count all non-leaf nodes you must change this line:

int count=1;

to read this:

int count = (root._left == null && root._right == null) ? 0 : 1;

(the opposite of what is in CountLeaves).

And this will get you the height of the tree:

public int Height(TreeNode root)
{
    int height = 1;
    if (root._left != null)
        height = Math.Max(height, Height(root._left));
    if (root._right != null)
        height = Math.Max(height, Height(root._right));
    return height;   
}

OTHER TIPS

Regarding getting the tree height, use the following recursive pseudo-code, calling nodeHeight(root):

nodeHeight(node)
    left=0
    right=0

    if (node == null) return 0

    left = 1 + nodeHeight(getLeft(node))
    right = 1 + nodeHeight(getRight(node))

    return max(left,right)

It doesn't appear that you balance your tree, so you just get a simple linked list, that may account for your incorrect values. A properly balanced tree will have a maximum height of log2(n).
