Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which traversal method uses a stack to keep track of nodes?
  • Step 1: Understand what a traversal method is. It is a way to visit all the nodes in a tree.
  • Step 2: Learn about the different types of tree traversal methods: preorder, inorder, and postorder.
  • Step 3: Focus on preorder traversal. In this method, we visit the root node first, then the left child, and finally the right child.
  • Step 4: Know that preorder traversal can be done using a stack. A stack is a data structure that helps keep track of nodes.
  • Step 5: When using a stack for preorder traversal, we push the root node onto the stack first.
  • Step 6: Then, we pop the node from the stack, visit it, and push its right child and then its left child onto the stack.
  • Step 7: Repeat this process until the stack is empty, ensuring we visit nodes in the order: root, left, right.
