Which operation is not allowed in a Red-Black tree?
Step 1: Understand what a Red-Black tree is. It is a type of binary search tree with specific properties.
Step 2: Know the properties of a Red-Black tree: each node is either red or black, the root is black, red nodes cannot have red children, every path from a node to its descendant leaves must have the same number of black nodes.
Step 3: Recognize that all basic operations (insertion, deletion, searching) can be performed on a Red-Black tree.
Step 4: Understand that while these operations are allowed, they must be done in a way that maintains the Red-Black tree properties.
Step 5: Conclude that there is no specific operation that is not allowed; rather, the operations must adhere to the rules of the tree.
