Tree Traversal Algorithms
Tree traversal algorithms are methods used to visit and process each node in a tree data structure systematically. Common types include In-Order (visit left subtree, node, right subtree), Pre-Order (visit node, then left and right subtrees), and Post-Order (visit left and right subtrees, then node). These algorithms help organize and retrieve data efficiently, much like reading a directory of files in a file system. They are fundamental in tasks like searching, sorting, and hierarchical data management, ensuring every part of the tree is accessed correctly.
