In a binary tree, if the in-order traversal yields the sequence [D, B, E, A, F, C], what is the pre-order traversal?
  1. [A, B, D, E, C, F]
  2. [A, B, E, D, C, F]
  3. [A, C, B, D, E, F]
  4. [A, B, D, C, E, F]

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a binary tree, if the in-order traversal yields the sequence [D, B, E, A, F, C], what is the pre-order traversal?
  • Step 1: Understand that in-order traversal visits nodes in the order of left child, root, and then right child.
  • Step 2: Identify the root of the tree from the in-order sequence. The root is the first element in the pre-order traversal.
  • Step 3: In the given in-order sequence [D, B, E, A, F, C], the root is 'A' because it is the middle element.
  • Step 4: Split the in-order sequence into left and right subtrees based on the root 'A'. The left subtree is [D, B, E] and the right subtree is [F, C].
  • Step 5: For the left subtree [D, B, E], identify the root, which is 'B'. Split it into [D] (left) and [E] (right).
  • Step 6: For the right subtree [F, C], identify the root, which is 'C'. There is no left child, and 'F' is the right child.
  • Step 7: Combine the roots in pre-order: Start with 'A', then 'B', then 'D', then 'E', then 'C', and finally 'F'.
  • Step 8: The final pre-order traversal is [A, B, D, E, C, F].
