  • A rooted binary tree is a tree with a root node in which every node has at most two children.
  • A full binary tree (sometimes proper binary treeor 2-tree or strictly binary tree) is a tree in which every node other than the leaves has two children. Sometimes a full tree is ambiguously defined as a perfect tree.
  • A perfect binary tree is a full binary tree in which all leaves are at the same depth or same level, and in which every parent has two children.[1] (This is ambiguously also called a complete binary tree.)
  • A complete binary tree is a binary tree in which every level, except possibly the last, is completely filled, and all nodes are as far left as possible.[2]
  • An infinite complete binary tree is a tree with a countably infinite number of levels, in which every node has two children, so that there are 2d nodes at level d. The set of all nodes is countably infinite, but the set of all infinite paths from the root is uncountable: it has the cardinality of the continuum. These paths corresponding by an order preserving bijection to the points of the Cantor set, or (through the example of the Stern-Brocot tree) to the set of positive Irrational Numbers.
  • A balanced binary tree is commonly defined as a binary tree in which the depth of the two subtrees of every node never differ by more than 1,[3] although in general it is a binary tree where no leaf is much farther away from the root than any other leaf. (Different balancing schemes allow different definitions of "much farther"[4]). Binary trees that are balanced according to this definition have a predictable depth (how many nodes are traversed from the root to a leaf, root counting as node 0 and subsequent as 1, 2, ..., depth). This depth is equal to the integer part of where is the number of nodes on the balanced tree. Example 1: balanced tree with 1 node, (depth = 0). Example 2: balanced tree with 3 nodes, (depth=1). Example 3: balanced tree with 5 nodes, (depth of tree is 2 nodes).
  • A rooted complete binary tree can be identified with a free magma.
  • A degenerate tree is a tree where for each parent node, there is only one associated child node. This means that in a performance measurement, the tree will behave like a linked list data structure.

Note that this terminology often varies in the literature, especially with respect to the meaning of "complete" and "full".

What is incomplete binary tree?

Incomplete Binary Tree is a type of binary tree where we do not apply the following formula: 1. The Maximum number of nodes in a level is 2


How many types of binary tree?

A binary tree is type of tree with finite number of elements and is divided into three main parts. the first part is called root of the tree and itself binary tree which exists towards left and right of the tree. There are a no. of binary trees and these are as follows : 1) rooted binary tree 2) full binary tree 3) perfect binary tree 4) complete binary tree 5) balanced binary tree 6) rooted complete binary tree


Is a full binary tree the same as a complete binary tree, or are there differences between the two structures?

A full binary tree is a type of binary tree where each node has either 0 or 2 children. A complete binary tree is a binary tree where all levels are fully filled except possibly for the last level, which is filled from left to right. So, a full binary tree can be a complete binary tree, but not all complete binary trees are full binary trees.

What is the difference between strictly binary tree and complete binary tree?

Complete Binary tree: -All leaf nodes are found at the tree depth level -All nodes(non-leaf) have two children Strictly Binary tree: -Nodes can have 0 or 2 children


What are the differences between a full binary tree and a complete binary tree?

A full binary tree is a tree in which every node has either 0 or 2 children, while a complete binary tree is a tree in which all levels are completely filled except possibly for the last level, which is filled from left to right.
