When inserting a node into an AVL tree, what must be checked after insertion?

  2. If the tree remains balanced.
  3. If the node is a leaf.
  4. If the node is red or black.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

When inserting a node into an AVL tree, what must be checked after insertion?
  • Step 1: Insert the new node into the AVL tree following the standard binary search tree insertion rules.
  • Step 2: After insertion, check the balance factor of each node starting from the newly inserted node up to the root of the tree.
  • Step 3: The balance factor is calculated as the height of the left subtree minus the height of the right subtree.
  • Step 4: If the balance factor of any node is greater than 1 or less than -1, the tree is unbalanced.
  • Step 5: Determine the type of imbalance (Left-Left, Left-Right, Right-Right, Right-Left) based on the balance factors of the affected nodes.
  • Step 6: Perform the appropriate rotation (single or double) to restore balance to the AVL tree.
