It is the way computers store Irrational Numbers. e.g. in a 4-byte binary float, which contains 32 digits of 0 and 1. the first digit says whether the number stored is positive or negative. The next 8 digits store the value of the power of 10 when the number is in scientific notation, and the remaining 23 digits store the actual digits of the number.

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.


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

How can you merge two binary search trees into a single binary search tree?

To merge two binary search trees into a single binary search tree, you can perform an in-order traversal on each tree to extract their elements, combine the elements into a single sorted list, and then construct a new binary search tree from the sorted list. This process ensures that the resulting tree maintains the binary search tree property.
